    When drying ONR with towels it's like putting on QD, the polymers began to lay down. So I would hold off on the leaf blower unless your doing a traditional wash.

    ONR isn't like acid or anything but I treat it as such, you can never be too careful, right? I haven't had any issues with water in cracks and crevices because there simply isn't enough water to get trapped in there. I'm sure everyone has a different technique with ONR and some probably use more water than others as well. Maybe someone can do an experiment on a beater with ONR and let it dry on the paint (with dirty ONR solution) to see what happens?
    I meant after doing a normal ONR, chasing it up with the blower to get all traces off the car and out of the crevices. Since I have never done ONR yet I guess I don't really know, but sounds like you are saying there is not enough water to cause a concern as long as you dry the panels.

    just blowing off the top and crevices to remove some of the excess water ,not really all of it like a traditional wash, sides of course rolls off,but as far as the polymers I usually I finish with a QD to touch up . So I am going to give the blower a try
