My pad dryer


9:30 at night and getting prepped for my next detail tomorrow.

Got my Fan on a stand converted to a pad dryer.

And is my normal ethical practice - in my how-to books, as in the online world and in the real-world, I NEVER steal other guy's stuff and present it as my own. I always give due credit where credit is due.

Sad to say, this is not the norm in the online detailing world.

Very cool use of an item nearly every person has. I can't wait for the look my wife is going to give me as I repurpose a box fan into a pad dryer.

Mike,

Its my pleasure!

Thank you for linking to your awesome book and putting the page number!

I wish we'd see Bill around again!

I'm so happy with the pad dryer!

I will definitely give due credit where credit is due, especially when I become more skilled at using the forum!

I don't know how you do some of the stuff you do on here but once I get it all figured out it will be awesome!

Its not the best looking but I covered my pad dryer with an old pillow case I cut along the seam to keep the dust off.

If it works, and it's free, then there is no better option, Jacob. ;)
