it's usually a 4 - 5 hour process. haha. but i gets the car clean.

wow that's intense!!!

i'm sure it works well tho

one question, do most people rub the soap in with a microfiber mit, do you just spray the soap on, and rinse it off?

I heard from someone this contains a chemical that is bad for paint. No idea if this rumor is true or not.

i usually use a microfiber mitt/cloth or a very soft sponge.

Yeh i found where the water sheets off the car, it will leave a stain/residue where the sheeting was. I had to rewash it the regular bucket method.

I find washing with 2 buckets, wash mitt and then sheeting the water with the hose works alot better. Then finishing up with a waffle weave microfiber cloth.

I have had mixed results as well, sometimes it comes out great, other times it leaves spots,,,I think it is the water though now tha you mention it, because it only left spots when i did it at my buddies house.

Mine doesn't leave spots on paint, but the glass sucks! It comes out horrible. I'm on Rainsoft water, too...so I know that's not it.

not impressed with it at all. the only part noteworthy from this product is the spot free rinse. I'd rather use a squeegies (sp?), leaf blower, and a towel
