METROVAC Air Force Blaster, Lightweight Car & Motorcycle Vacuum Cleaner, Dryer with Truck Air Duster - Black

Wow what can I say about this little blower? This is quite the blower: very powerful and well made. I love it! I used to use a leaf blower but the Metro Blower is much easier and more powerful. The hose is the best quality rubber hose that I have seen you don't have to worry about it scratching the paint if it bumps your car or motorcycle. The tip on the hose is also made of soft rubber. I do recommend purchasing the little dolly with it otherwise I think you would almost have to carry it around by the handle in one hand the carry the hose in the other. With the little dolly it just follows you everywhere you go and has never turned over. I have a small shop with a drain in the floor so a can wash the car, truck and motorcycle inside. With this being said I'm not sure how well it would work if you were outside because the wind would dry it before you could get it blown off maybe. I use it to blow of all my vehicles and my dog. The hotter it is outside the hotter the Metro Vac will blow. It does not heat up the air as some seem to believe it should. The heat comes from the motor as you run it. Even in cool weather it will blow warm air after it has run for awhile. It takes awhile to get used to blowing off your vehicle. You want to start at the top and try to blow in the same dirrection because if you have to change dirrection you will blow water back on what you just dried. You have to keep moving the water with the blower until its all blown off. It does a great job and will blow water out of places you won't get with towel drying. I can wash my Harley and blow it off in about 35 minutes. Hope this helps!

As Tony the Tiger would say, this product is GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREAT!!!! I just got a new Harley Tri-Glide, and believe me, there are a lot of nooks & crannies you just can't get to with a towel. I plugged this Bad Boy in and whoooosh! Water gets blown away with a warm blast of air leaving behind a clean, shiny, streak free surface. My only complaint is that I didn't get one sooner! If you have a lot of spare time, towels, and patience, maybe you can get by without one of these. I work graveyard and I would rather ride than spend half a day drying my Hog off when I cold be out getting it dirty again. I am actually looking forward to washing my scoot! "Nuff said

A quality made piece of machinery, Was able to completely wash and dry my Electra Glide in less than an hour. Air hose is long enough to reach around bike when pump placed at one end. Power cord a good length as well. The rubber nozzle tips will not scratch finish if accidental contact is made. Air is reasonably warm, when combined with the high volume air flow output, water literally disappears. Beats the daylights out of a leaf blower. A must for all cyclists.

Prime rocks - got this blower super fast. I bought it to replace a leaf blower since I just purchased a new car and figured I might as well do things the right way. I like that it isn't as loud as a leaf blower but I also don't think it has as much force when comparing it to my cheapy leaf blower. I did debate sending this back because of that. Using something like this on new tires and rims is one of the best ways to dry them, I would love to have the bigger unit but I couldn't justify the cost. This would be perfect for a motorcycle I'm assuming. I use this on a 4 door Golf and it's perfectly fine. Air comes out is warm - the name could be confusing because some of the models can actually be used as a vacuum too (this unit only blows air). I will update this review once I get to try again on a car that has been properly waxed (I'm sure it will knock the water right off) UPDATE - Works better on a properly waxed car. Still not 100% if I made the right purchase, I have named it the "dead cockroach" because it spends 90% of its time on its back with it's legs in the air. It is pretty friggin annoying that it tips over SO EASY.

I have been using Metro products for years. This is an excellent product and am very pleased with it. If you plan to purchase the model with the 'Heating Element', this IS NOT it, as I found out after unpacking and trying out. (and is most likely the reason the external and internal packaging looked like it had been returned several times). The Model you will need is 'B-3-HTV-AFBR (114-580850), that also includes variable speed as well. A good, dependable, straight-forward American, Family-Owned product, that have been successful since 1939.

I use this Air Force Blaster in drying off my motorcycle after washing. It works great getting off all the water out of the nooks and cranies and not leaving all the water spots when dry. The unit is well built and think it will last me many years.

Saves so much time in drying my harley. Dries without spots if you dry it in the shade. Very satisfied with this product.
