MR CLEAN Auto/Dry Cleaning System (good/bad)??

[anewfoundsin]

YOu probably seen them at auto supplies stores. MR CLEAN Auto/Dry system ...$20 ..worth it? anyone have one?

[xpeed]

I wanted to buy one, but I figure drying the car myself is better since I'll find where the dirty spot is when I've never noticed it.

It's crappy.

it's nice if u need to wash the car quickly, but i still prefer the old-fashioned method.

Rinse ur mit after doing a section of a car, then dip back into bucket of clean solution.

Rinse car and use "THE ABSORBER" right after.

Cause, if u let MR. Clean Auto DRY ur shiz, the time it dries, dirt in the air falls onto ur car and still collects where those water spots are, regardless if it was just a few minutes.

I bought my dad one for his birthday, he LOVES it. I've yet to use it but have a few friends that use it and like it.

thats what u think.....i hear that the sprayer that comes with the kit makes the water mist...so it'll take forever to rinse off the car....i'm surprised some of u guys are that lazy when it comes to cleaning the car.....i can wash my car and quickly dry it off in 1/2 hr max if i'm rushed....hell...i'll even wash my car in the rain if my rims are dirty.....but thats just how anal i am about driving a clean car.....

i do mine the old fashion way...like mrq said, it only takes a little time...plus "a man can get no closer to his car then by cleaning it"

I have one. It doesn't work when you're car is really dirty but works well for a quick weekend wash. Mr. Clean is not for anal car washers It won't do for those that want every inch to be completely spotless and shiny.

Amen MRQturbo.

If I can get my ES 300 washed, dried and waxed in less than 15 min(PS21/S100). There is no reason for anyone to be so lazy that they need to use crappy tools.

u hear that, eh? u ever actually use it? it really is easy to use. my only qualm is that it goes through soap very quickly, and u hafta turn the water pressure pretty high to get it to work well.

I was skeptical at first but if used correctly it's a snap and dries spotless.

My process is as follows:

-Rinse with pressure washer setting.
-Spray soap the car.
-Spray the wash mit.
-Wash with the mit.
-Pressure wash to rinse.
-Rinse with the fine mist - starting from top to bottom...like I was painting my car.

Dries quickly and spotless. Quicker if you "drive" it.
The slowest part is the mit scrub.

I have to strain myself washing my car every once a week. I'm afraid I'm gonna shorten the life span on the paint of my car.

Rinse with the fine mist

You're kidding me right? The fastest way to dry a car is by hitting it with a hose pipe. It takes a min to run around any non-barge sized vehicle and let the water sheet off. It shouldn't take more than another 60 seconds with a waterblade, or a waffle weave towel getting the rest of the small amount of water.

xpeed - impossible.
