For the guys who "dry" their Vipers with compressed air.......what size compressor and tank do you use? I am deciding between a 3 hp comp. with a 15 gallon tank.......and/or a 6 hp comp. with a 33 gallon tank. Also , any "tips" for the drying process?

Thanks, Dave

Definately the bigger one. With the smaller one you'll find out how quickly the tank needs to be recharged. And ditto with the microfiber towels.

I thought the problem with using a compressor is that without a water separator, you could be blowing dirty water back on your car. Do you guys use gas leaf blower or elec?

I use an electric leaf blower - I think it is a Toro. Great for getting the water out of the cracks and curves.
