    Mckees or metro car dryer

    Which one is the best for wheels, cracks, and crevices? My 3 choices are the new mckees, metro sidekick and the metro Air Force commander. I have plenty of towels to dry with also. I'm leaning towards mckees tho. I started detailimg on weekends out of my garage. So I would like to have the ca a I clean leave with out the drips. Which one would better suit the bill? Thank you

    Is the McKee's vacuum available yet?
    (Out of the three you listed, that's the
    one I'd get.)

    I meant to dry the car. Sorry if you misunderstood.

    Re: Mckees or metro car dryer

    i have the sidekick (too small to dry a whole car, good for cracks/crevices/engine/wheels, etc.) and dp/mckees 37 turbo car dryer and sold my MB. i don't miss my MB it was a pain to haul around. the turbo car dryer works really well, the key is to have a good coat of wax/sealant/coating and the water will be less resistant to sticking to the paint and will fly right off. that goes for using anything to blow water off a vehicle....

    NOTE:
    I'd still go with the McKee's brand
    for a car-drying unit.

    I prefer the side kick that is just me. The regular Electric Blower is just too big for me.

    I have the DP version of Mckees and love it. It makes drying quick and easy. It does wonders on wheels, tires, and mirrors.

    Have the McKee's, Metro Sidekick and Metro Vac n Blo. Metro Vac n Blo is my preference. I don't like the hose on the McKees. Too long and the diameter is too big making less easy to use compared to the Metro products.
