    Wondering if anyone has experience with this unit? Seems like the `vac` side is fairly good but the `blo` side might not be worth the extra cash. I was using the simoniz (canadiantire) one that came in the three in one system and really liked it (looked like a leaf blower).

    Any input welcome.

    I have been using a Metro Vac N Blo in one form or another for around 30 years. I still have my original orange unit and its still working. In the shop we use the version sold by CMA...Black Baron, which is a blower only.

    cool,

    just wondering about the air flow. is it comparable to a leaf blower? (at least sufficient to dry panels etc.)

    Its a more concentrated and warm air flow.

    I just picked one up and have yet to use it (but have heard many good things about it). What I love is the fact that it is light and portable along with all the excellent attachments. You could probably get to any crevice on your car with the attachments that are included.



    I bought mine from Amazon this past week for $138 (on sale). They are usually around $175, so I would start there if you are interested.
