I have something similar to the Blaster ...works great for blowing water out of trim gaps, mirrors and wheels, etc.
For full car drying, I'm looking at this: Air Wand - Description

It doesn't really make the job that much faster though, just gives me peace of mind over swirl marks from spots i missed during my wash. my friend dried his Camaro off with towels a few minutes faster than I did drying my car with this.
What I really want is a heavy duty filtration system so I can have my own spot-free rinse at home.

It works pretty well, you're gonna need an extension cord though. If you can afford it, I'd recommend getting the model that's next up in tier (more horsepower!!!!!!!).

This is what I use for the filtration:
Deluxe Clean Water Filter Kit, 2 step water filter system, water filter for car washing, inline hose filter
The water in my area is pretty good but I still get a few water spots but this helped a lot.. I essentially setup my own car wash in my drive way
at least when I go to my parents place.. lol
If in doubt, FLAT OUT

Griots sells an inline one, but still pretty pricey

I've been washing my cars for a LONG time and I've NEVER gotten water spots from washing. Use good quality car wash, wash in shade ALWAYS and dry quickly and you should not have any issues.
