Mr. Clean Auto Dry...

[TTercel]

Is the Mr. Clean Auto DRy worth the money. Does it do the job like its advertised. And how well does it accually clean your car? Just wanted some answers cause i hear all the hype about it.

Well it works, but personally the jet to wash is underpowered so you really need to scrub. And over time you have to buy new filters and special soap, so if your really lazy like me then i guess its worth it. Also its big and bulky so if you drop it i think it would break, and a few times the hose flew off it and sprayed everywhere but i think thats by fault..stupid unversal adapter thingy.

I don't care for it. I threw mine away after 5 uses.

Here's a thread about it. http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/t128121.html

A better way to get less water spots is to wash your car in the evening or in the shade, and for the final rinse take off the spray nozzle and let low pressure water just pour over the paint. It will create a sheeting action that leaves less spots behind.

I have a mist option on my nozzle? Will that help in having less water spots?

No, that will probably create more water spots. You want to gently pour the water flow over the paint, and let it run off.

Is that so, Pb!?!? I have to try that for sure.

Thanks if it works!!

It won't leave it spotless, but it will leave less spots than if you do your final spray with a spray nozzle.

mister clean is for lazy ppls....waste of money IMO....if you truly enjoy having a clean and detailed car...take some time and do it right....if you don't...take it to a drive thru car wash...

The soap that you have to use with Mr. Clean is alcohol based, so if you have wax or anything like that on the car, it will strip it right off. I learned that the hard way.

i used it before.. it was cool the first time.. but i rather do everything properly than be lazy.. after my filter and soap were done.. i never used it again

I got rid of my nozzle and bought just a close off valve so that i retain the flow of the water for final rinse. and when it closes just slightly it can create pressure. i bought a plastic one so if it hits the car it won't damage it too much.
