The Mr. Clean AutoDry™ Carwash system is integrated into a
hand-held device that attaches to a household garden hose.
The process starts on the “Rinse” setting, which allows
plain, untreated tap water to flow through the device for a
preliminary rinse to remove heavy surface dirt.
Then the user turns on the “Soap” setting, which mixes the
Mr. Clean AutoDry Carwash soap with water to create the wash
suds. The user applies the suds directly to the vehicle and to
the sponge or carwash mitt, eliminating the need for a bucket.
The “Rinse” setting is used again to rinse the soap off
the vehicle after it is scrubbed. Then, the user switches the
device to its “AutoDry” setting, which forces tap water through
a unique, patented filter to remove impurities that cause water
spotting.
The wash process is finished after this stage, and the
vehicle can be left to dry or driven away immediately. Either
way, a spot-free shine with no hand drying is guaranteed.

Filter
The filter contains ion exchange resin that produces
de-ionized water-a significant technological breakthrough.
De-ionization is what “disarms” the impurities in tap
water that leave spots when untreated water dries on vehicle
surfaces. Typical de-ionizing systems require large tanks and
elaborate, expensive equipment. The AutoDry system achieves the
same results with its lightweight, hand-held device.
Benefits:
• Removes water impurities that cause spots
• Effective with hard or soft water
• Effective with city or well water
• Works with AutoDry soap to produce spot-free shine
Soap
The soap formula helps dislodge and lift away tough road
dirt and contains a polymer that modifies surfaces so water
sheets off the vehicle. Rinse water combined with the sheeting
action causes a cascading effect that carries the suds quickly
off the vehicle. After the soap is rinsed, the sheeting action
leaves surfaces with a spot-free finish.
Benefits:
• Easily removes tough road dirt and grime
• Leaves no film or residue
• Sheets water off vehicle for fast drying
