Pros: Inexpensive, Effective
Cons: Bulky
I have a nice dual motor one sold by another detailing retailer, I also have an EGO blower, and the Flex blower.
The dual motor one by far works the best, but it is tethered by the cord. I probably use the little Flex blower the most, but that is mostly to dry wheels/tires and all the nooks and crannies like the mirrors, etc where water gets stuck.
If you want to use a blower to dry paint you really need a protection product that has excellent hydrophobic properties on the paint otherwise the blowers don't work so great.
Metro Master Blaster and metro sidekick. The side kick is great for wheels and small areas. Master blaster is a beast. it can blow a gallon container full of liquid across a table. Both unit provides filtered air and the master blaster air is heated. The master blaster is great for production work as well as drying off well maintenance vehicles. I use the side kick more than I do the master blaster due to the size difference.
I love the Metro Sidekick. Use it to dry wheels & tires, mirrors, emblems, grills, etc… Also comes in handy when polishing to blow away dust. It’s the perfect size, just don’t expect it to dry a whole vehicle.

I have an Air Wand (leaf blower attachment) but I haven't used it in years. Using a PFM goes by fast enough for me.
It attached to the leaf blower body. I bought the whole thing: the Air Wand attachment and the electric blower. It's not the best engineered thing in the world though.
This is the best photo I could take of the Air Wandhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9ade48c6b7.jpg
I agree with this though I don’t have the Flex but do have an Ego and Big Boi dual-motor blower. You really need a coating or coating lite product with hydrophobic properties for best results over large panels but for nooks and crannies (and wheels) they’re great.
