Thumbs up Just received this at my door step.

The CR spotless. Overall i like it and it relieves alot of stress from thinking the water will leave streaks. I tried this even with the tents, and the combo is awesome. I also received a few more things which is for my upcoming detail. Here are a few pics:




These are the tents i used



PS. Anyone in So Cal i am giving this box of goods for $10, I found them in my cabinet and find no need for them at all. haha

Ya, I am loving this CR spotless. Especially since the water in my area is just horrible.

Great investment but filters do not last very long! And they are really expensive.

Do you only use it for the rinse or the whole wash? If I got it I would just use it for a rinse, but I'm still on the fence about buying one, since I'm not sure how hard my water is to begin with.

I use it for EVERYTHING, wash rinse, to mix my chemicals.
Using it for a wash makes the foam even thicker than ever, it also minimizes the minerals in the wash to marr the paint.

Go on Ebay and buy a TDS meter, it should measure the hardness of ur water. It should be under $20 shipped

+1 on that. It def. gets you more foam than ever. and leaves no streaks at all. And I use it for everything now too.

Thanks guys appreciate the input, looks like I'll have to get one sooner than later, drying is the step I hate most about conventional washing, especially if I can't get away from the sun or with a black car.

I'll make sure to take a look on ebay and pick up a TDS meter.
