Default hell of a deal
i went reluctently to walmart with the wife and went to the auto detail supply section; i came across a bike dryer that was normally 98.00 on clearance for 20.00. i took it home and it works great. it is heated filtered air with 4 hp motor and moves a sh#@load of air. it is made by active products. it seems to be an exact copy of metro dryer. it is made in canada though that sucks but hey for the money its a steal

I use the Mr.Clean water gun, it filters the water so no spots remain when dry thus dont need a dryer at all!

Went looking for it at the local Walmarts here in Saskatchewan Canada (and on line) and they've never had any such thing here - any other info you could supply would be greatly appreciated - seems we make them up here... but then sell them everywhere but here!

thanks,

Allen
