I have this hand vac: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006HUYGM/ . Works well, although I haven't used it on the car. My dh uses a shop vac for the cars, I think.

I use the small tank type vacuum that came with my Oreck upright. I've never had much luck with those little handheld vacuums having enough suction to do a good job.

We have long canister one that hangs on the garage wall. Always plugged in and ready. Lowes (blue) and Sears (yellow) have sold them. We've had it for a long time, so not sure if still available. Absolutely the best for performance and convenience.

I second the shop vac...you can use it in your car, AND clean the floor of the shop, AND the crud in the gutters, AND....etc, etc.

If it really works and it's been a long time, they probably don't make it any more! (grin)
