Kept seeing it advertised on the TV so thought give it try and what do you know its the dogs bollo*ks.
Connect it to hose pipe grab a sponge, switch to soap mode and wash car, switch to rinse mode and rinse car, finally switch to Autodry mode and pretend you're a car sprayer covering the whole car with a fine de-ionised water spray. Throw it back in garage and put feet up.
No water marks and wonderful shine.
Get one now and throw that chamois away!!!

I was very sceptical about the whole thing, but picked one up pretty cheaply and gave it a go - very impressed!
Thanks to Merv for the original post

As "hokey" as it seems, the Mr. clean car wash system is the best thing on the market for quick DIY washes. What I can't figure out is the pricing: wash refill is $ 8.99 and the filters are $ 10.99 but the whole starter set including the spraying unit is $ 19.99, my recycling bin is going to be full of the sprayers... ;-)
