ABSTRACT:
Methods of blow drying vehicles with two or three superimposed dryers mounted for linear movement along the length of a vehicle include blow dryers having either fixed or pivotal nozzles so that air can be blown at the vehicle in predetermined patterns that have been found to more efficiently dry the vehicle. Further, a pivotal nozzle system is disclosed wherein a frustoconical nozzle is pivotally mounted on a horizontal axis for reciprocating movement by a linear actuator so that the nozzle can be oriented in desirable positions for effecting the drying operations described in the disclosed methods.
