I can't fault my Carcoon Veloce

You can park up the car when warm and damp, then open the vent for while to let out the moist air before sealing it up.

It's a wonderful piece of kit

I see that the Pet dryers on Amazon look to be the same as the Air Force blaster but are only 55 quid instead of 199. The only difference seems to be the hose length which looks shorter in the pictures, and only 3 nozzles instead of 5.

Since MrsW was a hairdresser, I have a selection of hairdryers in the garage for such emergencies.
Although the de-humidifier will dry a wet car overnight. The water drains outside into a bucket and goes on the potted plants.

The biggest risk area though are the rocker panels under the doors, and if they get wet, no amount of blowing or drying will sort that out easily without lifting the leather.

Going by the lack of any filtration on my leaf blower, I'd not be too keen to point it at my car.

There isn't any filtration on the air you drive through, either!

Actually our leaf blower has a plastic mesh air filter that can be used when the thing is used as a massive vac, so with that in place I see no problems!

FPWM - although of course the beautiful uncontaminated air of Gloucestershire is pure and clean and totally free of all nasty contaminants like grit, horse poo, and body parts of recently-executed roadkill. Oh wait...

That's what the car dryer selling folks use in their sales pitch. I'm a total anal retentive about my cars and bikes and have used the leaf blower on my most treasured bikes and even show cars...never a problem.
