One of the best detailing tools i have gotten. If you don't have a pressure washer, and are working with a standard hose, this is the way to go. BUY ONE!
Thank you...this idiot is no longer in suspense

Re: cleaner for undercarriage
After looking at a lot of these products, especially of those on Amazon, the car enthusiast in me spotted that many of them appeared to be using fuel rail stock and that made perfect sense. So I ordered a stick of fuel rail stock, some nozzles appropriately sized for my Kranzle and we will see how my custom creation compares to some of these others ranging all the way up to $605. Fuel rail stock should arrive next week.

Re: cleaner for undercarriage
For now I’m using my surface washer attachment flipped upside down on a rolling tool tray. Works fairly well. I’m interested in seeing the fuel rail homemade setup.

I agree with the above, after using mine today. I did not go look closely at the undercarriage when finished (only the middle of the under side is exposed, the sides are covered for protection but were still nasty and cleaned up well). I had bought the Salt-away and dilution attachment also. The amount of filthy, salty water that dripped down (first after water only, but especially after using Salt-away) was amazing, which is why I’m happy with the purchase of the washer and the dilution piece.
The only thing I’ll add is that I got the wheelie, long version. The wheelie didn’t make much or any difference on my bumpy driveway, and since you are waving the wand left and right, not just forward and back, I didn’t see much benefit of wheels. The extra length may have helped but might be barely harder to guide. I’m not sure since I haven’t used the standard Underwasher. So no complaints about getting the longer version. Just no glaring benefit from wheels.

Re: cleaner for undercarriage
Underwasher.... sounds like a detailing based super villain from the Incredibles.
Or some one who doesn’t wash their car well....

Re: cleaner for undercarriage
Good to hear it worked out for you acuRAS82. Understandable about the wheels. A tool your not going to use every wash, but to remove all that mess from the undercarriage when needed.
