You can e en use water to dry a car...and i know what youre thinking... the junkman guy does it. Iirc, he calls it walking the dog or something like that.
Just a note, the size of the outlet on these blowers is a significant factor when comparing them. Velocity of the air output is inversely proportional to the size of the duct. i.e. the larger the duct size the slower the velocity for the same volumetric flow rate. So we can deduce that flow rate is king, and then a better duct size and shape, like a letterbox attachment would give you the best of all performance by giving an even higher velocity at the output. Notice that the black and decker has a much smaller more rectangular outlet. If you add that to the Worx blower it would perform even better. Just imho as an engineer. And thanks for the great video comparison, definitely getting a leaf blower now.
Also as an engineer... the ideal configuration is high CFM AND high speed. However, those come at a hefty price. Reducing the nozzle diameter on a high CFM blower will increase velocity by maybe 15 % but will also reduce the cfm as the system is throttled with the more restrictive nozzle. So, you need a high cfm blower to start with, which will maintain a reasonable amount of air flow after throttling. Too much throttling though will cause the blower fan to stall. I actually use a 525cfm 110 mph blower with a 3 inch nozzle for general drying, and a smaller and more maneuverable,160 mph workshop blower to clear out the crevices, grille, seals, etc. If your paint is not protected, air blow drying is a waste of time. If coated, with good beading, blow drying makes the process much quicker.
All the years I've been washing cars I never thought of this, I just used the ryobi 100mph 280cfm & it did good, but now I see that if I get more power I'd be much better of. This is a great video
@SMOOCTOBER it wasn't all nonsense. he actually explains CFM and MPH and what they mean for the two models. If you just want to see them in action, then ya, 9:06. But I actually didn't know what CFM was, and ended up learning something. Just FYI for anyone else looking through comments
I was looking for a lightweight blower for my deck. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxgioZQl3J5wPGAeDINzbieKbT5qomSEx3 There are some huge trees around my house and the leaves and pods drop all over my deck. Having to move furniture around to sweep has become too big a chore. This blower was the answer. It is light enough for this 70yr old lady and powerful enough to blow all the tree droppings off my rather large deck. Thank you B&D. Be aware the cord is not included. I use a 3 prong outdoor cord 25' cord for my 12' x 20' deck. The cord retainer works very well, but don't try to pass the plug through it. That is NOT how it works. You just have to loop the cord and it works great. One of my best purchases. Very happy.
I have the the same Worx leaf blower and is definitely enjoying drying my car. Just one tip though, it is better to wax your car at least once every two months to make the drying faster and rain x on every window to make the water slides away when blowing with air.
I had an ClearFX done on my Model3 4 dayz ago...I been told to not wash the car for at least a week..got my Works 600CFM blower yestoday from Amazon...cant wait to try that!
Really needed to compare corded to corded units. The MPH was essentially the same. For example, greenworks blv12b00 corded is 270MPH 400CFM. This would be a fairer test of MPG vs CFM.
if the car had a ceramic coating and the water was beading the black n decker would have worked flawlessly ..flat water does not move as fast as water beads
For those of you worried about leaf blowers not having a filter: blowing filtered air through dirty air to dry your car is like blowing filtered Champaign through sewer water into your mouth. If you don't want dirty air to impact your car, don't use the leaf blower in a dirty environment.
Air drying with a blower seemed like a good idea, til dirt that was hiding started to show on my white paint. I had to wash again and chamois dry properly.
@@samuelmarques4574 Hiding in all the seams such as the doors, hood, trunk, grill etc. I would advise pressure washing before washing as it would help remove most of it.
I am glad you mentioned the treatment on the paint, as a car cleaning enthusiast it hurt my heart initially seeing that slow sheet under pressure haha. Thank you so much for taking the time to make such an informative video, much appreciated!
Try it with an Echo PB9010. 1110 CFM AT 220MPH. It has so much airflow that it ripped my license plate off the car. The bolts were still screwed into the plastic fasteners.
@@Alejandro_BoniIIa It's all fun and games until you blow your car off the driveway. Just kidding. The new Ego does 765 CFM on a battery. On.a.battery!
If you want to dry your car with a leaf blower or any blower (MetroVac/BigBoi) you need at least some sort of protection doesn’t matter if its spray sealant/wax spray/ wax coating /ceramic coating it just needs to have some sort of hydrophobic properties for the blower to blast the water off the car. AND YES i think that the CFM (if you want really good look at something from 700+ CFM) , matters more than the speed, dont make the same mistake and look at the speed, just like buying a pressure washer looking at the PSI instead of looking at GPM.
I have that Worx one. Yes it moves the water away, but it also makes it evaporate and disappear to some extent. Much of the water never makes it to the floor.
Protective coating and indoor or night lighting would have made it more apparent which blower was doing what. I recommend the Ego 765, best of both worlds. As the wise man once said, "why choose?"
Do you own the EGO 765? I am looking at that compared to their 580, 650 CFM units as I have hear the noise levels can get pretty high pitched and hard to deal with. I plan on wearing ear protection but dont want to overkill it and bother my neighbors more than needed.
@@MarkTrades__ I do and I seldom press the turbo button and it doesn't seem overly-loud to me, but I'm old and half deaf anyway. My neighbors don't complain and we're friendly so I'm sure they'd mention it.
Leaf blower without filtration is great for forcefully blowing all over your freshly washed car.... dust, dirt, grit, tree pollen, and whatever other crap is lingering in the air. Leaf blow your wet car, then wipe it down with a damp towel and you get....a dirty damp towel.
@@joeyball3342 your filter is only filtering out the air it's outputting. Any ambient pollutants will still be peppered on your car. A clean environment and a quality protectant will make this a non-issue.
If the car body had been protected with any kind of at least wax, any of those two methods would work perfectly being the little one more covinient (in my personal case) because of the maneuverability
When MPH is about the same, your test is almost a comparison between low CFM and high CFM, which shows who is the winner without testing. The test would be more accurate with a low CFM + high MPH vs high CFM + low MPH.
Need to do the test with a coating as dryers or blowers are useless without the coating, by the time you’ve got round the car , some parts will dry naturally and end up with water spots
You should have done this on a coated car. most people that would even be thinking of using a leaf blower to dry their car are probably car guys who have coatings.

Got the WORX WG520 yesterday October 14, 2022, and used it today Oct. 15, and does a mediocre job. Washed my car today and using the WORX WG520 made water beads very small and plentiful. Took me 20 minutes to blow dry my new 2022 Honda Civic Touring, built on September 2022 (date of mfg on the driver door side) and received from a Honda dealership on October 4, 2022, with 2 miles. I bought the blower to avoid getting watermarks or streaks. It does blow leaves very well, but not so good for drying a car. I duct-taped a microfiber cloth around the plastic tip so an accidental touch on the car paint would not leave a scratch. The WORX WG520 is very light, the air intake will suck your tee shirt when close to it. I think suction is better than it blows. The Ryobi 730 CFM 40V Blower could be better because it has 130 CFM more than the WORX WG520 600 CFM. For $55 plus add sales tax, you are better off spending $90 to $120 for a much better product. You get what you pay for! The WORX WG521 is said to be 800 CFM you could try it. WORX WG520 not recommended as a car dryer. Plan on getting a battery-powered unit because dragging around an electrical cord is a nuisance and you don't have to worry about becoming electrocuted after washing your car. Safety First!
yes you literally can, in a car wash the dryers are pretty much the same thing, they just blow air extremely hard angled on the car the blow all the water off
cordless blowers are weak for sure. i have a lower model worx blower and i honestly feel like it's pretty slow still. when i'm blow drying the car i feel like i can hand dry it faster...
Use the exhaust function of your shop vac. It works great and you already own it. No reason to buy anything else. I have two Stihl leaf blowers, a handheld and a large backpack. I'll stick to the shop vac.
Electric or battery powered lawn equipment is mostly a joke. I use a handheld gas powered Stihl blower that blows 159 mph and I don't have to worry about any cords getting tangled or tripping over. It's a lot easier to move around a car
Filtered air is a waste of time. All of the air between the blower and the car is not filtered. Any dirt in that air is getting blown on the car anyway.
Exactly. There's also the issue of the Worx (and B&D) sucking in dust, debris and flying insects (neither blower can do what they do with any sort of fine filter on their inlets), then blasting that at 110+ mph onto the paint.
@@hlcepeda that would only apply somewhere that had a lot of debris and bugs, such as a rural place. A clean(ish) driveway isn’t going to have much to suck up, especially if it’s already wet from the wash. Besides, you want to blow the water downwards and off the paint so the intake is up in the air at least shoulder height. If there is that much debris and bugs in the air than there would probably be an issue with all of it settling on the paint anyway.
Does this require special soap? I used green turtle wax soap and there was no water pressure and it drizzled out and used all the soap in 2 minutes. Its didnt spray like the water nozzle did maybe 1/10 the power
@@jdisdetermined I brought the presure washer back as it was defective. Now I have a mroe expensive one that works I see I wasnt do anything wrong it was just defective
@@XDr3aM yeah, that's what I was expecting.. some soaps foam better than others, but it mostly depends on your pressure washer.. glad you got it sorted out! 👍👌✌
Thanks for explaining the CFM vs MPH! I was wondering about if there was really a big difference! The black & decker or really ANY leaf blower is fine for blowing out water from badging, door handles, mirrors, wheels, grilles, lights and door jambs. Drying the ENTIRE car with a blower is just going a little overboard!
I don't understand. Why accelerate evaporation with a blower? What's the hurry? I understand toweling, because the towel soaks up the water's minerals and contaminants that would otherwise be left behind during evaporation that cause water spots. I don't understand how fast evaporation is better than slow evaporation. Are we expecting it to blow the contaminated liquid water off the surface, like wiping with airflow? Does it do more of that than evaporating? I don't detail my beater cars, but on the occasion that I wash a decent car, I want to towel it as quickly as I can, hopefully in the shade, before any water starts to dry. Seems like a blower would evaporate quite a bit of water in comparison, no? - Somebody with no experience that's overthinking it
Who knew a car wash video would help decide which leaf blower to buy ,thanks!

@@barry4134 but very expensive. Same you have with parkside performance blower

I don't detail my beater cars, but on the occasion that I wash a decent car, I want to towel it as quickly as I can, hopefully in the shade, before any water starts to dry. Seems like a blower would evaporate quite a bit of water in comparison, no?

Owsome video, compairasone !)):
The makita UB1103 has 203 MPH, does this is enough to dry car easily?
Best regards
With 145 CFM, the UB1103 is terrible for this compared to dozens of cordless competitors.
More efforts and leaves streaks more than just hand towel. Or better yet use a waterless car wash solution and towel.
Get a black and decker with the boost button....your welcome.
Thanks for the video bro! Made my research easy cause I almost bought one of the ineffective ones that’s on sale.
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching
