GREAT !!  Thanks alot.  Previous owner used S100 on it as well.  Does it really matter if leaf blower is electric?

Absolutely!  If it's not electric, and you plug it in, you may be electrocuted. ::)


Sorry, couldn't resist.  As I always say, to each his own, but you may want to reconsider the leaf blower idea.  A good blower is a definite help, but I prefer one that blows filtered air at my paint job.  If you already own a shop vac, see if it allows you to install a hose on the exhaust port.  If it does, you just buy a hose and maybe a crevice tool to concentrate the flow and presto-chango, you have a filtered air blower.  I've been using my Craftsman 16 gallon vac in that manner for years now, and it works every bit as well as those dryers sold specifically for bikes.  Just get a separate 1.25" hose for drying, so you won't blow the dirt from the regular hose all over the bike.
