I got a cr spotless water deionizer before Christmas. It was a deal on eBay, a dual 10" unit. I purchased new crspotless resin and refilled. I used it for the first time yesterday. Amazing. It was warm enough in TN to actually make paint surfaces feel hot, so the christening of my new to me system began.
This has changed my washing forever. I used to despise washing for two reasons: 1) I could never dry fast enough and 2) I didn't like the that drying was a "useless" need: possibly making more marring while required to prevent etching.
After buying a black car with very soft paint, I knew I had to change my drying method. In comes the crspotless. I washed and then rinsed with my electric 1.5gpm pressure washer.
I realize how I don't wash everything like I thought I did. I've left a few places unwashed, but I would "clean" those places in traditional drying. This becomes obvious when you don't have to physically dry the car.
It's was a big investment, but all said and done, even a new system is 250. I spent 40 bucks last year in drying towels. After getting over the sticker shock you won't be too disappointed. If I can get ten rinses from this I would be happy, and hope much more will come out of this thing. I used to spend way too much time trying to get water off paint. Now I can spend the time drying (and later laundering towels) to do more productive things.
Buy a ball valve and quick disconnects for your hoses, and swapping around will be easy.
