Master Blaster is the official dryer for the corvette museum. The PDI group uses it for all the museum deliveries because they wanted only the best for corvette owners. Jay Leno has one in his garage and the museum store was so impressed they offer it to members and it’s the first time they offered any product to dry a car (other than towels).

Air Force® Master Blaster®
MASTERBLASTER

For those who want even more power and versatility, there's the Air Force® Master Blaster® with its two, twin-fan, 4.0 Peak HP motors (total of 8 Peak HP) capable of delivering up to 58,500 feet-per-minute of clean, dry, warm, filtered air! Each motor is controlled by a separate switch that allows you to select from three different airflow and temperature levels. Five different nozzles enable users to position airflow where desired and eliminate water spots. Plus, the Air Force® Master Blaster® is completely safe for all paint and chrome finishes!

Funny thing is, I don't see a single LEAF BLOWER being sold by the museum!

This has been posted for over an hour now and not a single response.

Funny how the trash talkers are no where in sight when they realize the National Corvette Museum is a believer in the Master Blaster!

Well on the other hand, since it has been over an hour, maybe some of you are still outside trying to dry your car with that leaf blower!

All in fun fellow forum members. We're all on the same side - the right side - the Corvette side!

Really been on the fence about getting one of these things. It is hard to justify $300 to just dry your car. Although, maybe it could double as a leaf blower.

Will they give us a group buy?

I have one and it does a great job, if I get caught in the rain I just pull in and blow it off which means no water spots.

Been thinking about this, but it is cheaper on the Air Force site and no shipping cost, last time I looked.

Would any of the forum vendors give us a group buy ????????

Swiftrider08

I think there was a vendor that had a group buy about a year ago. Let me check with a few and see if there is anything that can be done again.

But the few extra dollars goes to support the National Corvette Museum and that is one good cause.

You are right about that. My Bad!

Can't spend $300 for something that just dries the car. Now if could double as a leaf blower maybe.....

Keep in mind that NCM members received a 10% discount.

Also, Top Flight is offering a sale/group purchase:

I will soon be retiring the leaf blower, ordered a Master Blaster. Hope this thing works as well as everyone says it does. Now all thats left to do is wait for the little brown truck to show up .

I've had one of these blowers for 3 years now....it is awesome! I am really happy that I spent the money....I used to use a leaf blower....but with this machine I know I'm blowing clean heated air on the car. When I'm finished with it, I don't have to touch the car, wheels, door jams, or mirrors with a drying cloth....it is done! One thing you need to be aware of and that is the power requirement......14-2 gauge wire will not handle it...you need at least 12 gauge wire and really should have 10 gauge...the twin electric fan motors do require some power! I kept opening circuit breakers with the machine until I found out why.....fortunately I had other garage outlets with 12 gauge wire.

While there are many places to purchase most of the items we all discuss here on the forum, please keep in mind that it is against forum rules to post links or website addresses to non-forum vendors.

Supporting our forum vendors is what keeps this site going and I am sure we all would like to have this site around for many years to come.

A great purchase for me and Im impressed with the way its made. made in the USA by the way

It's an excellent leaf blower also...

ThrottleUp

Price seemed out of my league, with this discount it's more accessible though Does anyone know if:
1. It requires 220V. or what? I only have 110V in my garage and outside in front of house. If no, how easy is it to wire-up a 220V, the circuit breaker panel is on garage wall easily accessible if that helps.
2. Is this one of those products that can be reversed and used as a vacuum cleaner? If not, maybe we start a new thread on what's a great car/garage vacuum?

Thanks again gents
