Don't know if you guys have seen the commercials for that new hose attachment that Mr Clean has come out with. It is basically a gun looking unit with a Pur Water Filter built in and a soap reservoir. It has three modes; regular water, purified water, and water soap mix. I got one free through some guy on Autopia.org (Detailing Forum of the Gods) who was testing units before they hit stores. The big claim is that after washing with their soap and rinsing with purified water the truck should dry spot free without toweling/chamoising it off.
Lucky for me, and for anyone readin this thread, I got one free. The regular rinse mode is kinda weak even with the hose blasting, and the purified water spray is the equivalent of a Misty-Mate. It took me about 10 times longer to rinse my truck with the thing. The water seemed about the same as washing with normal straight-from-the-hose water. It wasn't a "terrible" product, but I would recommend against dropping something like 30 bucks on one. Oh yeah, the filters are supposed to last like about 3 washes and then you gotta replace them. That= more money! Seems like a decent idea but IMHO thumbs-down.
