    No. Not in the least.

    The only concern would be that huge wand waiting for an accident to happen. 1st and only time I used my Ridgid vac as a last resort to blow dry a car I dinged it thanks to waving around that big of a wand.

    Blow dry?

    Anyone use an Air Wand attachment on their blowers? I have the whole set up but haven’t used it in forever. I see they still make Air Wands but they don’t sell the blower along with it like when I bought mine

    Which blower are you referring to?

    When I bought my Air Wand I bought the Weed Eater blower that is compatible with it but now it looks like the Air Wand site only sells the attachment and parts.

    I’ve use gas, battery, and corded blowers and haven’t had any problems with any of them. I actually prefer the gas due to the higher volume of air.

    If your car is not coated or your wax/sealant is not fresh blowing dry is not easy. It still is good to get around mirrors and gas caps, and don’t forget the wheels.

    Looks like the Air Wand is compatible with certain electric, cordless, and gas blowers

    Sort of similar story with this Ridgid Blower Wand. I found it on Ebay for like $13 bucks a while back but now this wand is next to impossible to find or buy. All I know is it works like a gem and worth its weight in gold. Lol

    I only use it to sweep though, not for drying cars because it’s dangerous for cars.

    Should be fine for interiors.

    I’ve got a Metro Sidekick for car duties but I’m not really a blow out interiors type. I love vacuuming.

    I may just get a Metro too. The Air Wand is a bIt cumbersome to use and there’s a risk you can bump the paint
