I like it first the power washer on my rims and tires,
and to wet the car down- then used the dry system
"shiney" & no spots sweet.
I have the original system(blue & green) $17.79 Loblaws superstore clearance last fall.

Have it and don't like it. :angry: Rather use the power washer and hand dry.

i use it, and love it, takes so much time outta drying, and keeps the scratch's to a minimum. it definitly worth spending money on it, if it's less than $20 that is, i would never buy the $50 package.

I got one for christmas, I love it. Its perfect for quick washes before shows and stuff.
I bought their brush kit to. They have a really good flexible wheel brush in the kit. Works like a charm. B)

I have a black car and the autodry NEVER leaves a spot....
all in all it costs about $2 a wash for it.....which is cheaper than going to the coin-op....

On my car which is silver it was fine just a few spots.But my son's car which was black his ZX3 it was spot city even when we had a fresh filter in it. It might be the water here. We have a high iron content plus very hard water. I have water softner in the house, but it isn't hooked up to the outside taps. It was a waste of money for me.

I picked one up on sale at WalMart to give it a test over the weekend and I was quite impressed with it. It DOES dry without wiping and leaves no spots. What I don't like about it is it seems to remove any and all water-beading properties that your wax might have had. Hopefully it is not actually REMOVING the wax...
I think I will keep it around for quick rinse downs after work etc when I don't feel like doing a whole wash/dry/ etc. Wish the filters were a bit cheaper though. Guess that is where they make their money.
