I am looking for a blow dryer.....I have been using my brother in-laws Circuiteer cattle dryer this winter and it's awsome.

I tried the leaf blower thing and it just doesn't work for me but this blower it great.

Anyway............I have been looking at three blowers and am wondering one thing

I would assume that the size of hose and length have something to do with it but.........

The air hose dia and length are the same on two of them.

Whats more important in a blower used for car drying ?

Air Flow CFM or Air Velocity ?

Any engineers out there that know ?

Thanks

I like Metro's 8 HP Master Blaster. It works much better in 8HP mode.

I would guess actual air flow (CFM) is better than just pure velocity since you can have a small high velocity stream sound goods but not really pump out the air.
