    I usually wash outside, drive omni garage, use a 1-pass squeegee (maybe it's easy pass... Either way it's all silicon), blow off the remaining water with a shop vac, and wipe my car down with microfiber. I get a really nice wash with no steaks or water spots.

    What I was trying to say in my convoluted way is this: a MB and a CR Spotless are each about 3 bills, I have both, and if I had to only have one it would be the CR.

    Just wash and dry by panel to avoid water spots. It works like a charm in Las Vegas weather plus hard water

    Yeah, the MB is a poor value. The CR Spotless is a better value. Drying with a towel can (will?) cause scratches.

    I use a cheap leaf blower for drying my cars and it works great. My drying process is usually wipe windows/roof/hood with a silicone squeegee, then dry car 99% with an Absorber, then follow up with the leaf blower to get the body seams, trim, & wheels. I never have issues with water spots, but maybe the water here isn't that hard, I don't known.

    I own the MB and I think a lot of people miss this machines true calling. I rarely use it to dry a car but I use it every time i do an interior. I know a lot of Geeks are split on this topic but I find if you air purge a vehicle first you save SO much time and effort later. I have some videos on my YouTube channel explaining this process. I used to do this using shop vacs or compressed air but the MB takes it to another level. I blow my own vehicles out once a month just to freshen them up. I rarely have a need to vacuum them.

    I don't own either, but at least a MB is a one-time expense. With a DI you have to buy replacement cartridges, which are very expensive expensive, and many people complain they do not last very long.

    Re: Cheap Air Blower...

    This is a good price but the quality matters I guess. I'm not fun of buying some cheap items mostly related to electricals because the life span is not for long. sooner or later it will crashed of some sort and there you go..your bucks gone!
