Yea let us know. I was told that their soap strips the wax and that helps the water sheet off the car then the pur filter takes all the impurities out the water and its supposed to help it dry spotless. let us know if you finish feels like the wax is gone after you do it thanks.

I've got one and it works pretty well. Just make sure you wash it in the shade and when the car is cool. And let it dry in the shade. Otherwise, it will spot. Keep a clean filter in it. I change mine after every third wash or so. We have pretty hard water here and the filters don't do that great of a job after two or three washes. Wash sections of the car at a time and don't let the soap dry on the car. It won't hurt it, you'll just have to go over it again.
As far as the soap stripping the wax, that's baloney. I have washed my TL ten or twelves times with it and the water still beads up. The sheeting of the water is not because the wax is stripped. It sheets due to the impurities being removed and the filter also de-ionizes the water. (Don't ask, I'm not a chemist.)
It's definitely worth the $15.00 or so dollars. Changing the filter after every third wash or so makes it a tad more expensive, but it's still less than taking it to a car wash. And you don't risk scratching it when you dry it.

I used it last week. It did not dry by itself because of my wax i believe (NXT). But I did like the filtered water.
