And then I do the rest with a microfiber. Combining both is faster and has less droplets afterwards.

Drying with the leaf blower alone takes way to long.

I already had the leaf blower to blow leaves. Didn't buy it for the car.
This is probably how I'll tackle drying my next time. What I was doing previously was using the MF drying towel and then a small battery powered blower to get the door sills, etc with another MF towel to catch the trapped water.
