Though all tips aside, I wouldn't use one. Too high a pressure can force water into areas that don't need it (i.e. headlights, trim, etc) and can worsen paint chips and scratches. I'd rather stay old fashion and wash the car with a bucket and hose. That way I can 'feel' the cars finish and spot out problem areas to fix. I don't like the mist created by high pressure water. With a hose, you can run the water along the windows and the body of the car and as it runs off, leaves hardly any water beads behind - in other words, instantly dry windows and not much water left on the body to have to dry off. 8) |

I bought the Mr Clean washer that hooks onto a regular water hose and you don't have to dry your car at all. Just washed my B with it today and yet again no spots have been left behind. Picked it up for about 20 bucks at Pep Boys, because I was tired of going to car washes and have to go over my car more then once to get all the spots. heh
