Mr. Clean AutoDry = MUST BUY!! I've used it! 5 Stars! 10/10!!
Santa brought me one for Xmas! I used it because I was so execited, my car was dirty anyway. This thing is amazing. Everything they say in the commercials is true, it makes your car look beautifuel and with no spots! If you were a skeptic about this, go buy it and you will see! PS, I have a dark blue Maxima so I would notice spots on my color, and there is none! GO BUY!!!!!!

got a link to it for a description and price maybe?

i have acually heard they are really good as well
|
I just bid on it...haha. Worth a try. I have also heard that this stuff works well.

Its 100% safe for the finish / paint?
|
Just read a review...this guys said it works really well too but it is quite expensive...The cost of the kit is 29.99 and they guy said you get about 3 washes per bottle of cleaner so its like 10 dollars per wash. Another guy said once you empty out your initial bottle you can buy a refill bottle for like 6 bucks.
|
Mmmmm...it's like spot free rinse at the carwash I guess. Unless they're doing some really serious deionization/filtration I would imagine you're still going to get water spots = bad. Besides...you have to dry the car to wax/seal it.
I dunno...I don't think I would ever be in a situation where I would not want to dry the car at home. If I don't want to dry the car, it'sprobably because I don't want to wash the car because it's too cold...in which case I'll go spray it off at the carwash. if I wash at home I would always dry it... |
it does really work, it is safe for the finish of your car, its acutally safer than regular water because this filters out all the crap chemicals in your water and the soap works good.
|
The thing I question is this...people over at autopia who have hooked up water filters to their hose lines (I will be doing the same soon) have said that even that doesn't get rid of the spots completely. So it's not just filtering that's going on...it's using some kind of chemical to do...something...I dunno...
|
could also be the soap...
i dont think motor trend appoved it for nothing... |
Car Wash
I wash my car in the carwash during the winter, first it gets vacumed, then it goes through an automatic carwash then it comes out and 5 or 6 guys are drying it off. It cost $7.75 plus a $2 tip. :thumbsup:
it stay's clean for about 4 days and then we get a rain, it gets dirty again, so i wash it every week pretty much. |

auto carwash = scratches on your fenders and rims, unless it's totally 100% touchless (aside from the guys with rags drying it off).
and touchless hand washes = $$ better off just washing it yourself... spend some quality time with your car. :thumbsup: |

im thinking the principle behind it is....
i took an engineering class on water and hydraulic engineering, that bottle is probably an equivalent to a Brita filter removing magnesium, calcium, chlorine, and carbonates that reside in hardwater. I saw the commercial on tv and if you remove all teh hardness, it wont leave any spots on the car. not sure if they sell any filter liek this for the garden hose, but this mr clean stuff seems promising, except for the price.
|
my parents got me one of these things for christmas. I was rather sceptical of it, and had planned on returning it. I think i may keep it for a while now. Once i use it i will let you guys know what i think if this thread is still around.
btw..... Jewel-osco or albersons for the westcoast people, sells the kit for $20. |
Really? I checked out Ralphs and they didnt have it...I am afraid to go into an Albertsons because I am afraid of getting attacked by protestors. Last time I went into a VONS I practically got beat down by a picketing sign...
|
Hows it workin on the chrome wheels? Eatin off the brake dust good or do you still polish alot?
|
Did your parents buy it in stores or order it?? I remember on the commercial that it said it will be available in stores after a certain date (i think maybe after january) but you have to order off tv now
|
Ya, Albertsons doesnt carry it and one can only buy online.
|
Unfortunately the towels they use also scratch the clearcoat. Not that I'm any better, I still use carwashes since I don't have a driveway or garage. In the summer I handwash and detail the car (takes about 4-5 hours) since my friend's driveway is available then.

out in the mid-west we do not have alberson's, its jewel-osco here. my parents bought it in the store though. |
i used to go to the carwash and use the maual thing, but after i while i think that would eat off my paint (the high pressure hose) so i just use my mr. clean thing now, it works great, i love it. i think you should all at least give it a try, if you don't like it or whatever, or u just wanted to try it, u can return it, look on their website.

K Mart has them too.....
Bump looking for more reviews on this thing.... |
You can also buy it at Target.
|
what every happened to just the good old fashioned washing and drying as a time to bond with your car? Are those days gone? Have they passed?
|
Just use meguiars gold glass soap.

This will answer some of the questions in some of the previous posts:
It's a 2 step process. The soap (Step 1) and the water filter (step 2) apparently work together for no spot drying. [quote]Mr. Clean™ AutoDry Soap The first part of the Mr. Clean™ AutoDry Carwash Dry Rinse Polymer sheets water off your car for fast drying Easily removes dirt and grime Leaves no film or residue Works with Mr. Clean™ AutoDry Filter to leave your car incredibly clean and shiny Mr. Clean™ Auto Dry Filter Mr. Clean™ AutoDry Filter utilizes filter technology form the makers of PUR The second part of the Mr. Clean™ AutoDry Carwash Removes water impurities which cause spots, even in hard water Includes a color-change indicator that changes from black to brown when it is exhausted Works with Mr. Clean™ AutoDry Soap to dry your car spot-free every time Number of uses varies on factors such as water hardness and usage |
If there was just a nozzle with the replaceable filter cartridge, I'd be all over it.
