Super Soaper + Blower = The Ultimate No-Touch Drying Method?

What if you could dry your car without ever touching the paint? No towels. No pressure. Just foam, rinse, and blow dry. That’s the dream of no-touch washing—and it’s not as far off as you think.

We tested The Super Soaper paired with a cordless Ryobi blower to see if you could fully dry a car without laying a single microfiber on the surface.

What Is No-Touch Drying?

No-touch drying means removing all water without physically contacting the paint. The goal is to eliminate swirl risk entirely—especially on dark or soft finishes where even the best towels can mar the surface.

To pull it off, you need:

• ✅ A pre-soak that reduces surface tension and helps water release
• ✅ A surface that’s already protected (coated or sealed)
• ✅ A strong blower to push water off completely

Why The Super Soaper Is Ideal for No-Touch Washing

The Super Soaper is a pH-balanced, high-lubricity wash soap that creates thick, rich foam. But it’s not just for looks—it helps water sheet and bead off more efficiently during the rinse phase.

After a Super Soaper foam + rinse, we saw 70–80% of water fly off the surface before even using the blower.

How Well Did the Blower Finish the Job?

We used a Ryobi 18V cordless blower and focused on:

• Upper panels (hood, roof, trunk)
• Trim edges, emblems, door handles
• Side mirrors and lug nuts

Result: On a ceramic-coated car, the blower easily handled the remaining water. No towel needed. On an uncoated surface, some tight spots retained minor drips that were best handled with a quick blot using the Massive Drying Towel.

Is No-Touch Drying Actually Possible?

Yes—if your paint is coated or protected. The Super Soaper helps release water, the blower clears most of it, and there’s little to no towel contact required.

On untreated cars, 100% no-touch drying is tough. You’ll need to touch up some areas. But using this combo still reduces the amount of physical contact dramatically.

Pro Tips for Success

• Pre-rinse first to remove any heavy grit
• Foam thoroughly with The Super Soaper
• Rinse at high pressure to encourage water release
• Blow from top down and go slow on trim edges
• Only blot when needed with a towel, never drag

Final Verdict

The Super Soaper + blower combo is the closest thing to true no-touch drying for the average detailer. On coated paint, you can dry the entire car without laying a towel on it. On uncoated cars, it still dramatically cuts down towel time and reduces swirl risk.
