I bought a Troy Bilt TB180B electric myself, it was cheap and has a decent rating. There are cordless models as well, but they weren't available when I bought mine. Assuming you have a decent wax job on your car already you don't need a much higher rated blower.

Fish, I really like these. A little expensive but worth it as you can take the wax off of the hood and trunk with one towel. About 8 dollars per towel sometimes cheaper with coupon codes.ReThickulous microfiber is what they are

Thanks! After some research. I've decided to go with this http://www.homedepot.com/p/Homelite-...6#.UdXnL_mbPfI.
LOL! This is a game changing tool for me. I despise drying after washing. This allows me to pretty much skip the towel's drying process and go straight to quick detailing. Washed my car and motorcycle yesterday and this makes it fun!

That's not true. If you ran the engine without an air cleaner and air cleaner cover and pointed the intake at the car (which would be pointless), that would be the only reason gas could POSSIBLY come through the carburetor. I use a gas leaf blower to dry my S as well as other cars, never had this issue because I run them with air cleaners and covers installed. Certainly saves on dry time!

Yeah, they're probably way too old and dried out, which is why I'm experiencing this.
Any advice for some good mitts and microfibers out there? I feel like I can spend hours on Autogeek and DD looking at different ones, and never make up my mind.
