I was surfing the net and ran across this car wash soap..... Just wanted to see if anyone used it before and what did they think of it. Did it do as advertised? Spot free with no drying?

I think it runs about $7 for 35 oz. Or at least the site I was on had it for that.
Here is what it claims.....
* Save time with Rain-X Self Dry Car Wash by virtually eliminating the drying step!
* The patented technology makes the water sheet away allowing the car to dry itself without spotting or streaking.
* The rich foam of Rain-X Self Dry acts quickly to dissolve and lift off dirt and road grime, leaving your car with a brilliant shine.
* Rain-X Self Dry is formulated for all automotive paint finishes, including clearcoats.
* It will not strip or dull waxed surfaces.
* Made in USA.
I seen that Walgreens carries it, so I may go look for it and try it out...

I never used it, but it sounds like Meguiar's NXT, similar formula.

No were near the cleaning, rinsing, and overall results of nxt, and is doesn't do what is says no more than using nxt and flooding the paint.

never particularly liked Rain-x, so I stay away from all its products.

I really doubt that it's any good, at least for washing your own vehicles.
By the way, - every wash says it won't strip wax, even the ones you can find in 99 cent stores.
