Metro Vac - Sidekick Blaster
Based on it's bigger brother the Airforce Blaster, the Metro Vac Sidekick Blaster is still powerful enough to move serious amounts of water.
The small but powerful 1.3hp motor generates 18,000 ft per minute of heated and filtered air to safely and effectively blow water off your paint and out of crevices much faster than you ever thought possible.
Whats more impressive is the Metrovac Sidekick Blaster is made from tough durable steel is only 9.5" in height and weighs just 2.2kgs, so extremely portable and easy to use, making it an extremely useful tool for removing water from vents, sills, wheels etc.

Voltage: 200v
Peak Airflow: 205mph
Cable Length: 3m
Weight 2.2kg
1 Year return to base warranty

Available with hardwired factory UK or EU plug

purchased this bit of kit after seeing it ages ago on videos but only available in America I'm sure. Noticed somebody had got one and posted on a forum I'm in and couldn't believe it was from the uk and at a good price. The ordering process and exceptional delivery service was first class and the blaster is amazing and saves loads of time when drying your car or bike even. Streak free and little time and effort. I've recommended this product to friends and posted the link on forums etc as I'm sure loads will want this. н Ѕн±Ќ

Fed up of drying with towels? That's how I was, especially my rims, so I checked some reviews on here and watched a few demo videos and I will never look back. My car is small but I can dry the whole thing with this powerful blower. I found that buying the hose attachment make a big difference too and I made a strap to sling it over my shoulder which makes the world of differnce. It may appear pricy but it's well worth the purchase. Gets all the annoying drips from side mirrors and side vents. Awesome product.

Fantastic little machine - excellent for clearing water from known problem spots but also capable of clearing the majority of a wet car if the paintwork is suitably protected before hand. Other comments mention noise but I don't find it overly loud at all. For the money it's going to save a lot of time!

This piece of kit has saved me a lot of time drying my wheels prior to application of wheel sealant. As the air is warm it does actually dry not just blow the water about. Beware though, it gets really loud around the wheel nut area! I have also used this to blow the remaining water off the windscreen which left no smears or streaks whatsoever (although I do have Gtecniq G1 on my glass). Some people say it is too small to dry the whole car, but I have used it a few times to quickly clear most of the water leaving only a few spots to dry with my towel. Again I have Fusso on my paint which makes this easier. I doubt it would work very well on an unprotected car. Overall great but of kit for the casual detailer that has saved a lot of post wash water runs on my black car from the mirrors, door shuts, filler cap etc.

If you like me are fed up with drying your car only to find another pool a few minutes later then this is another tool in your armoury. It will not necessarily save you time as you keep chasing the droplets around but at least you feel satisfied that you are doing your best. Countless other uses include drying Wheel Woolies, Merino Wool Wash Mitts (aka Donald Trump's Hair) and the nooks and crannies on mountain bikes. This is the next best thing to compressed air without a huge compressor - all in all a hurricane in a bottle.

Great service and a good vac, have looked at others a bit cheaper but decided this was the one. I'm glad, it's great.
