Yes I do. It is used for washing vehicles but I also have a regular water hose bib next to it for what ever.

I probably mistook your question Mine is a house softener. I do have one for the RV that is all hoses tho. Go to campingworld.com as they have them and it uses table salt.

Our whole-house water softener has a by-pass ball valve,
that I engage for garden usage.

Bought my softener from a local plumbing supply house.

I am referring to portable version that you can hook it up just for the car wash.

Then...No.
I just use the hose bibs/hose for car washing:
They're then, at that point, part of the whole-house water softener system.
All-in-All: That's good enough for my purposes.

i use a portable water softener for final rinse. the water around where i live is awful. I've got the race glaze refillable unit, expensive, but works well. if you want a cheaper option, look for window cleaners resin filters, it should return some results for ebay etc. that will be a possible alternative.

Griots garage makes a deionized system on a cart. It works pretty well

I have the cartridge filter that PBMG sells for your hose. Works very well. I have very hard water and I do t know what I would do without something.

I read a review that this was better than cr spotless. I'm gonna look into it

What would happen if you filled your QD bottles with deionized water. Would that help
