I've never used it. I saw it being used once on MTV's Pimp My Ride but that was probably for advertising purposes. I would recommend buying stuff from www.detailedimage.com and use what they offer. I'm pretty sure most people will tell you the same.

I used to use it every once in a while on my black GTI - and it does work pretty well. It makes it so the water doesn't bead but just sheets off. I don't think it strips the wax or anything - but I'm not sure exactly how it works.

What I would normally do is use it and then go around with an absorber to dry the areas that were still wet. I'd say at that price why not try it and see if you like it?

I use it mainly for the rinse feature. If I'm feeling to0 lazy to dry the car, especially the wifes SUV, I don't have to worry about waterspots.

I've used it for a couple years with good results. The cost of the soap and rinse cartridges does add up over time.

I bought one, never use it anymore though. The only thing it's good for is the filtered rinse, but the cartridges need to be replaced often and are expensive over time.
