Black requires lots of washing!!@$% Maybe this will save some time on the 'mid-week wash'.

A lot of people have been pleased with the results and they say it does what it claims. Be careful on the refills though, it goes through cleaner rather quickly and refills are expensive from what I hear.

I kind of like the idea of filtering water before it hits the car. I washed mine the day I bought it and had those nasty little white spots on the windshield.

It works as advertised! Washed the wife's car with it the other day and it came out great.

Ive used it a for a while now, and occasionally ive had the same problem. Sometimes it doesnt dry completly for me, but thats probably just my screwing it up. It does get a little pricey so buy the soap and filters in the large sizes not the individuals, but overall its a good product.

my friend keeps raving about this heheh.

It looks kind of cool, but i still like drying my car with microfiber towels and stuff.

I'll try it out though : ]

I ran out to try this and found it NOT to work at all. Sure the filtered water is better than regular tap water, but as for the drying by itself, it did not work at all! I was very dissapointed in this and went back to using my old bucket, sponge, and chamois.
