Car wash help!?
Car wash help!? So I think the water that comes out of my faucet is bad because the water I use leaves terrible spots all over. Now I just reprinted my car and dot want this to happen again. What do you guys recommend? Go buy gallons of water? The car is satin so I can not wax it or anything. Any thing you guys think will help
Definitely try to wash and dry in the shade.
If your water is that hard then you may want to try using Optimums No Rinse Wash versus a traditional wash. It will soften the water and you can wash the car this way as well.

Besides the shade, use EagleOne Nanowax and Wash in the large jugs. It's about $5 or so. Just mix it with the water in your bucket per directions. It really helps out and you don't feel rushed to get the car dry. I doubt it would impact your finish but try a little on the lower side to make sure.

If you can still find it, get a Mr. Clean Car Wash kit. I use it and get a quick spot free wash. The soap works well and the final rinse setting is a mist of water that has passed through a filter.
Since they stopped making it, I stocked up on filters and soap.

Verdad Gallardo Well tonight I just went down to the local car wash and washed it up. I bought one of those chamois and dryed it off there in the shade and she looks good so far. I am scared to wash it with the water I know sucks here at the house.
As for getting a softener I would love to but can't really because I live in military housing and there's only so much I can do to the house here. I'm in Hawaii and yes the water sucks lol.
