Default Inline hose filter reduce water spots

Hi all,

Anyone use an inline hose filter to reduce water spots? Autogeek has them on their website. I make the mistake of not getting my black GT dryed off completely and then waxed, but some water spots are now apparently under the wax. I think I'll try clay bar to try to solve this problem. I'm rather new to detailing (at least blackcars) and never heard of clay until recently.

Also wonder if Mr Clean autodry would help significantly. I don't think either would replace the need for complete drying, but wondering if either of these products might make things easier.

Any comments?

Thanks

Yes i can second that Mr Clean Auto Dry. I picked one up at walmart for 18 bux or you can get the pro series one for more money its up to you, but either way it worked amazing i followed the simple steps and it works great. Also very convienent having the soap and deinonized water right at your hand, now i dont need buckets!!

I'm sorry, but I tried the MR.Clean anf thought that it was O.K.
See, I have a water softener and life is grand. As long as I don't wash my car when it's a hundred degrees or in the hot sun, I never have to hand dry or squeege my car off. It air dries and no spots with the softener. And none of the ionizer, impatience of taking forever. Squeeze the trigger on my 2600psi pressure washer to finalize rinse and go inside and let dry. NO SPOTS. I takes me no more than 15 minutes to wash my car. The MR. Clean or whatever it's called takes like 45min. atleast with it's pathetic spray pattern. It does an O.K job though for the price
