So how do you guys normally wash your cars?
The water here is CRAZY hard. So water spots are a HUGE pain in the butt.
So I normally take it to a brush less car wash (10 bucks a pop), and when its really dirty, I take it by the regular car wash, and wash / scrub it down first.
So far thats my best bet for getting it clean, and not having water spots after everything dries.
But there has to be a cheaper way.
I was thinking about getting a pressure washer, and I have a shaded area to wash it. But I need something to help soften up the water when I rinse it.

Car Washing?
My house has a water softener, but it doesn't connect to the outside faucets.
Bill, your well water is probably WAY softer than the stuff here. The mineral content is so high in my area during the summer, that my water softener is set to a hardness of 65 to 70.
Even then I still won't drink my tap water. I have an RSO hooked to my sink, and my fridge.
A year or so back, I remember seeing someone that made a pressure washer kit, with a filter for the rinse. Might have been turtle wax or something. But I can't find it online for the life of me.
Oh and I will happily trade you my black car for your white one lol. Both are hard to keep clean, both look amazing when they are. But black, especially in the dust ass dessert, is a total PITA.

I figured someone would know what I was talking about.
So what type of pressure washer do you have? How many PSI?
You would think, someone has a pressure washer with a filter for hard water. Or some kind of solution.
I know you can get inline filters at any RV store, or from walmart in the RV department. I wonder how well that would work? Or if it would drop the input water pressure to much?
