Electric leaf blower (if at home) and then the Great White. Can use for rinseless too.

Wow! Thank you for the responses all! I ordered a remarkably plush drying towel - this should be much better than what I was doing before, and I also found Glen's write ups and the spray wax you can put on while drying so I ordered some of that too!

Here is what I use to dry my cars!!

The most vulnerable time for scratches to be introduced to your car is during washing and drying. This product allows you to dry your entire car with literally no chance of scratching it. The two 4hp motors work together to warm and filter air and push it through a 30-foot hose that is flexible and easy to move at 58,000 feet per minute. This works great on side-view mirrors, door jams and body seams and grills and of course flat panels.

This machine also includes wheels, which swivel in the front so you can walk around your car effortlessly.

Also includes a wall mount and multiple attachments.

Prima Hydro Wax As You Dry Spray. A great way to dry your car without leaving micro scratches.

After reading your docs I bought this stuff and used it this weekend for the first time. I love it! Like a just waxed finish while I dry.

I also got the BF Crystal Seal, along with BF trim and tire protestant and BF car wash. UPS didn't bring me that until after I had washed the car though lol.

Drive really fast down the road until dry!

On a serious note I take it through a Touchless wash myself I use to dry mine lots but I had black cars before and found over time was scratching the clear from so much rubbing so I don't dry them now.

Gonna look up some options on this forum though thanks for the info.

I used the Meguiars dry towel and battery powered leaf blower for years until i tried a Griot's garage dry towel. That is all i will use now, in my opinion its equal to 3 meguiars towels.

Yup....Again, a good waffle weave towel, they pretty much all the same, its the technology, not the brand that makes it work. One towel will do the whole car easily

My wife bought me the Master Blaster with the 30 foot hose for Christmas. I have only been able to use it a couple of times this spring but so far I'm loving it. No drips or runs from all the crevices and it is quicker, with less effort. Also, I know I'll find plenty of other uses for it.
