I must be in the minority, I let it air dry.

I like to put a nice layer of meg's wax, sometimes multiple coats. I don't see any significant water marks, except the windows. I wash on a gravel drive, a blower would probably make a bigger mess .

You might have better water sources than we do also.

Could be I like to use a thin fan as a last pass to encourage as much as possible to run off. I tried a synthetic chamois last time and didn't see enough of a difference that would justify it's use over gravel.

Used to use an air compressor and waffle weave microfiber. Have a leaf blower now, so I'll have to give that a try.
