Using a Ryobi Blower to Dry a Black Car Safely
Air drying with a blower is one of the safest ways to protect black paint. No towel drag, no swirls—just a spotless, streak-free finish.
Pro move: A Ryobi blower removes water from paint, cracks, and crevices without contact. Pair it with a final blot from the Massive Drying Towel for perfection.
Dry Black Cars Without Touching the Paint
Use a blower to reduce swirl risk. Finish with a plush towel for streak-free results.
Why a blower is perfect for black paint
- No swirl risk: Zero towel drag reduces micro-marring.
- Removes hidden water: Blows out mirrors, trim, grills, and badges.
- Speeds up drying: Cuts drying time by half compared to towels alone.
- Less spotting: Gets water off paint before it bakes into spots.
How to dry with a Ryobi blower
- Wash & rinse thoroughly: Start with a clean car, free of soap and dirt.
- Angle airflow: Hold blower at 30–45° to push water off the surface, not into it.
- Work top down: Roof → glass → hood → doors → bumpers.
- Finish with blotting: Use the Massive Towel for any stray drips.
Safer Than Towel-Only Drying
Blower first, towel second = swirl-free drying for black cars.

Pro tips
- Use the blower immediately after rinsing to minimize spotting.
- Keep distance at ~12 inches from paint to avoid water blowback.
- Pair with ceramic spray protection to make water fly off faster.
- Work in the shade—black paint heats quickly under the sun.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Holding blower too close: Can splash water back onto panels.
- Skipping towel finish: Leaves random drips behind mirrors and trim.
- Using underpowered blowers: Choose a high-CFM blower for efficiency.
- Drying in sun: Evaporation spots form before you finish.
