that goes without saying... but anyways, i'm tired of making filters for my stupid leaf blower, anyone ever use metro vac n' blo? i'm also in need of a new vacuum so this looks like the perfect tool

Anybody think of using a simple blowdryer? Im sure that would work just fine for getting moisture out from behind the mirrors, and im sure its a bit less hassle then a leaf blower. But certinally not as fun!

All I do is stuff the edge of papaer towels in the cracks a few times and that takes cares of it. Also, remember to pull in your mirror towards the window so that you wipe dry the water that sits n the arm of the mirror.
