There is a lot of information online, particularly Youtube (visuals). I think AMMO NYC's channel covers some of the car wash/dry basics well; but he's focused on the entirety of detailing. He's now sponsored by /DRIVE and he references his own product line a lot (which I've found are good products) but he also provides budget friendly alternatives in some situations and probably has one of the better channels from an educational standpoint.Thank you so much!! I am planning to get my vehicle this week. Good to know on washing it as well to use hose without attachment.
I've used my Echo leaf blower in the past for this, but I think I need something with more of a "narrower" tip to really push the air out faster.Leaf blower.
I can't say with 100% certainty that I'm not making this up but I do seem to recall someone, somewhere, explaining how this introduces contaminants to the paint. Something about dirty air and 2-stroke exhaust if I'm remembering right.I've used my Echo leaf blower in the past for this, but I think I need something with more of a "narrower" tip to really push the air out faster.
I'm of the same belief. Not absolutely sure it's not a myth, however, it does make sense.I can't say with 100% certainty that I'm not making this up but I do seem to recall someone, somewhere, explaining how this introduces contaminants to the paint.

I was thinking about what i said in the earlier post and realized I kind of take for granted that I have a line filter. It is definitely a valid concern. You don't just take any air compressor to your paint and having a good line filter is a must if you're going to use it on your car.Air compressors work, but they can spit oil or if it is older and you never drain the tank have rust and water inside them.
Leaf blowers are a toss up.
