BigBoi – Which Touchless Dryer is For You?
We hope by now you are more than familiar with the name ‘BigBoi‘ in the car care and detailing World and just in time for summer, the ground-breaking touchless drying devices are all back in stock with us here at UF.
That includes the latest addition to their comprehensive range of high-tech contactless blowers, the Mini+, taking their dryer offering to a ‘fab four’ and for those of you that are laying eyes on BigBoi for the first time, these touchless dryers are designed specifically for the detailing and car care industry. Unlike a leaf blower, they use filtered warm air and soft nozzles – so even if you come into contact with whatever you are drying, no damage will be caused.
Using a non-contact method of drying like this for your vehicle will eliminate any chances of incurring scratches and swirls in paintwork which can often be obtained through using drying cloths and synthetic chamois. In addition to the above, these powerful gusts of air are hugely advantageous when it comes to ensuring there is no moisture hidden away anywhere (be it grills, shuts, badges or lights) when you’re moving on to polish or protect.
So without further ado, here is a rundown of each dryer that BigBoi has to offer, hopefully making your decision on which one best suits your needs that little bit easier!
BlowR Buddi Touchless Car & Motorcycle Dryer £110.00
BigBoi’s entry model, the BUDDI is the only hand-held touchless dryer in the range and caters for the enthusiast who requires a high-quality performance drying solution, but at the most affordable price. Being hand-held, it is extremely portable and compact, with the latest version of the Buddi now featuring an all improved 1.2 HP motor that generates a powerful 250 km/h of warm filtered air.
The Buddi has quickly become a real favourite for motorcycle enthusiasts (for obvious reasons!) and is also excellent for thoroughly drying a small car or even a jet ski in minutes. The soft tipped nozzle will get into even the hardest to reach of areas and will not damage any surfaces that it may accidentally come into contact with.
You can also now enjoy the latest attachment to further enhance your Buddi Drying experience, coming in the form of the Buddi Pack. Featuring a 1.5 metre commercial-grade hose and additional shoulder strap, the new pack will take the weight off your hands and make manoeuvring your Buddi even easier than before!

BlowR Mini Touchless Car Dryer £159.00
The BlowR Mini has become THE must have for avid car care enthusiasts and that’s thanks to featuring one of the most efficient single motors in the industry. The 3000-watt motor uses heated, filtered air to chase water off paintwork, metal, glass and chrome.
The blast of air forces trapped water out from behind badges, head and taillight surrounds, mirror housings and other hard to reach areas. The BlowR Mini comes with three interchangeable nozzles to ensure air can be directed into tight to reach areas or along channels and grooves. There is also the option of two variable wind speeds and three temperatures, depending on the task at hand. The latest model also now comes with a 5m power cord and hose as standard providing ample reach for most home users. The Mini also has the impressive advantage of quickly becoming a ‘2 in 1 tool’, converting into a powerful vacuum thanks to the latest Vacuum Attachment accessory (also available for use on the Mini+).

NEW: BlowR Mini+ Touchless Car Dryer £249.00
Introducing the BigBoi BlowR Mini+, specially designed to help bridge the gap between the Mini and the PRO. It looks fairly similar to its nearest sibling, the Mini, but you can now enjoy the power of a twin motor unit. The Mini+ is packed with the latest cutting edge technology in the industry today and has been built from the ground up to ensure maximum quality and as always, this unit was designed with the detailer in mind. The twin 1400 watt motors use heated, filtered air to give that little bit more power than the standard Mini and of course there is not a single bit of moisture than will escape those powerful blasts of wind.
The BlowR Mini+ is supplied with two interchangeable nozzles with a nozzle locking system to ensure air can be directed along channels and grooves. The BigBoi Temperature Technology (BTT) function ensures the BlowR Mini+ uses adjustable heated air from 15 to 40 degrees C above ambient air temperature for optimum drying and evaporation. You can select from 1 or 2 motors, plus wind adjustment mode for controlled drying depending on the task at hand.

BlowR Pro Touchless Car Dryer £329.00
The BigBoi BlowR Pro is the most powerful unit of its type in the industry, boasting two 1500 watt motors that use heated, filtered air to chase water off paintwork, metal, glass and chrome with ease. This power means it has become the touchless dryer of choice for professional detailers and it’s also UF’s port of call for touchless drying at our Brands Hatch Studio! The Pro will dry a car up to 80 times faster than that of a manual equivalent solution and it’s this kind of time saving that is so crucial for those in the trade.
The BlowR Pro is supplied with two interchangeable nozzles to ensure air can be directed along channels and grooves and BigBoi Temperature Technology (BTT) function ensures the BlowR Pro uses air heated to 20 degrees C above ambient air temperature for optimum drying and evaporation. Depending on your task in hand and how powerful you require the air to flow, you can also select from four wind speeds.
