As stated above, a Blower & Weave towel and call it a day. The less you actually touch the car the better. When I do use the towel, I spray it with quick detailer first to ensure there is a lubricant on the paint.
If you have a good top coat, the water flies off the car.

Hello. I just order Hitachi RB24EAP leaf blower jonsguide.org/best-hitachi-leaf-blower
So what do you think can I use it also for my car? Its gas blower and some reviews says that it can spoil the paint.

upgraded to the Kobalt 80V cordless leaf blower a while ago. the free extra battery deal made me bite the bullet.
works so good after Nanoskin mitt treatment, polish, and Hydr02 sealant - car was dry in minutes!

you don't need a leaf blower if you have a good coat of wax. Just take the nozzle off your hose and run a soft stream of water over your car. Most of the water will sheet off. Dry with a waffle weave.

it works so much better with the blower, ESPECIALLY with a good coat of wax.
you don't need a leaf blower, but i didn't buy it for drying cars - i bought it for blowing leaves. drying cars is a bonus.

I never use a chamois. Because it's so flat, if there are any particles in the water, it pushes it along the paint instead of absorbing it into the fibers of a mf cloth. That can scratch our wonderfully soft self chipping paint. Use a blower or air compressor or use mf drying towels. Stay away from the chamois.
