I’ve never used one before and after just a few minutes getting used to it and trying on the different polishes the results are amazing.
So if you’re sitting on the fence or maybe a bit scared of giving it a go I would suggest you jump in and get stuck in.
Once the Mustang paint is tidied up I’ll give my Territory a good going over.
Anyone use a blower/dryer? I like the idea of drying the car without touching it to help reduce swirl marks.

Well done, so glad to hear it went well.
There are a few different car-specific blowers/dryers. I went with Big Boi, but they all do a similar thing.

There is some debate as to how much better or otherwise a car dryer is compared to using a leaf blower. I have used both and I prefer the more focused air flow from the car-specific machine.
It will also take a bit of time to adapt to this style of drying, you will learn how to direct water off the car rather than just pushing around. The important thing to know is you wont get the car 100% dry with a blower, it's role is to remove as much water as possible before wiping up the last remain moisture with an appropriate towel and drying aid.
