I have used it several times.
as advertised? no.
is it worth using for $20? not when you can only use it several times before having to buy new special soap and filters when i can buy waffle weave drying towels from waynestowels.com for $15 each and they will last years. i wrote and asked for a special price since i was spending so much and i got a good discount.
besides, the autodry was not spotless, i still had to wipe it down, if i am going to have to wipe it down anyway, why not just dry it and be done with it

that's right...the replacement filter promises 10 uses. Man, I'd be happy if I get 5 washes. For some reason the filter in the kit is touted as being good for three washes. I don't know why the disparity; probably has to do with returns or something. Mr. Clean only knows, but I am also thinking it's to get repeat sales as soon as possible. One last thing: I predict all the big boys will come up with their own version of this system. Get use to it boys and girls...DIY car washes is changing...I know, not hard to predict.

it has surfactants which is designed to create a sheeting action in the water. I don't think it's Dawny type soap.
