    i use the vac as a air-blower, i clean the inside everytime i switch from vac and i put a mesh filter to let more air flow. after i use it as a blower for few minutes it starts to blow hot air and help to dry the car faster.
    as a tip if u use it as blower , drill a small hole in the hose where connected to the blower and use a safety pin, if not you may have some loose hose flying around the car.
    i don`t have a compressor so is my way to go on crevices

    Using the small Rigid might burn out the smaller motor overtime, my Craftsman electric leaf blower is over 3.5 years old and going strong.
