This works outstanding and leaves zero white residue ...yes of course you can get by with one, but if one is good why not 2 :) ...I tend to overdo things

It's rubber hose, similar to that used from the evap line on an LS engine.

Also similar to the lines used on a magnachargers heat exchanger. :)

Just out of curiosity, is that just an inline water purifier or an actual in line water softener? The water softeners that we use down here are huge and have to have electrical connections.

Nice idea. I'm so glad I don't have to deal with that at home/work . That would make for a very long day. This site is great ....

The hose is for rinsing. It leaves less droplets than spraying the truck off. "Flooding" it with that open hisr leaves less droplets, reduces drying time, and pretty much no water spots.

Actually it mostly removes chlorine and sediment, it doesnt actually soften the water so I think technically the water would still have some hard in it...but it definitely cleans up the reside leftover significantly


I love overdoing things, but I'm not convinced 2 is needed here, gunna unhook the 2nd one and save it as a replacement...the 1 works just fine.

To spray the water on the car? :confused:


If your paint has a good coat of wax on it, you can sheet the water right off with the hose open like that

I do mine differently than this guy's demonstration but you get the idea...I start at the top of the hood with the hose in the other direction...makes clean up easy as hell

Dallas water isn't great... where I lived it wasn't hard, but wasn't exactly soft.
