Thats the only reason i wouldn't want to use a leaf blower either.

I just use an absorber but i should use that with the squeegee I hear good things about them.

The IBIZ stuff is really good. I have used it for years on all of my cars from my 47 show car to my daily drivers. I get lots of compliments on the shine. It is really easy to use, goes on easy and comes off easy. It is also really durable, shine seems to last really long. You can also use it on windows, and metal. Cant say enough good about the IBIZ wax and polish.

I use a california squeegee. $20 and the best thing ever. Then i use 2 little microfiber towels and my car is all dry!!!! Seriously, get a squeegee. This one is all rubber and you can't scratch the car. Idk what i did without it for so long!!! I can dry my car in about 5 min i guess.

My neighbors look at me like I am insane when I use it. But it dries my car the quickest, with no water spots, and no water in the cracks to make mold or eventually fall on the clean car. Saves me a lot of time.

Do a search on Zaino products. IMO they are top notch products. They also recommend starting with a clay bar prior to using their chemicals. I also like 3m 3 step system w/ a variable(high) speed buffer and lamb wool pads. Meguiar products are widely available at most stores and decent quality also. Claybar,1st, buff 2nd, polish compound/wax last. Also pick up a good synthetic chamois drying cloth. I usually drive around the block to dry my rims, tires, and paint. Leaf blower sounds like the same deal. Just don't accidently suck up any debris or you'll be sandblasting your paint...
