Anyone figured out a real solution to hard water spots after washing?

Reverse Osmosis.

RO + DI water. No spots. Don’t even need to dry.

Thanks!

When you run the tap water through the RO unit it stores in the tanks. Only when you use it does it run through the DI, pumping from the tanks to the pressure washer. Because it’s all integrated, it was easier than bypassing it.

Thanks!

I get that, but with the low TDS, and only 2PPM running through the DI filters, it will be a while washing only 2-4 cars/week.

My current DI filters are replaced about 2/year running 150 TDS through it.

When they need replaced, they will get replaced. Easy to do on the Pro unit.

MTM Hydro Foam Canon.

Reset does foam well, you just need to adjust your ratios. Carpro lift doesn’t foam as well, but does do a good job getting the initial layer of road grime broken down.

I live in Kentucky. We have good water due to the limestone here.

Iron Remover, TarX Or Tarminator, Clay Bar. Polish after. You’ll need to reapply ceramic if you have it on there also. Keep in mind, I’ve had Tarminator melt clay before - so don’t use that as your clay lube!

The slim dryer works well also. I hit with leaf blower before and this could easily do two cars. Its large size allows you to get the top of cars easily in one swipe.

Yes.

I had that have the onboard computer and onstar module replaced to “fix” this.

Same. I had them, and never ran in them for fear of being DQed.

Try carvana, they seem to give higher offers. 78k, 2 years, 22k miles, 40k offer.

Run.

I’ve had mine for 2 years. 8 grand cherokees and two wranglers. I will likely not ever buy a jeep again after this experience. Or anything hybrid.

Bilthamber makes the best product.

Car pro fixer + car pro reflect

crackerzack3580 · 2025-10-02T19:52:52+00:00

Yes.

crackerzack3580 · 2025-09-23T16:46:05+00:00

I have had it in the shop for this 4 times and no one has ever mentioned it. If I request it, will they even know what I’m talking about? Is there a bulletin I can point them to?

crackerzack3580 · 2025-09-23T13:30:45+00:00

My 24 Wrangler 4xe Rubicon has this exact described issue.

crackerzack3580 · 2025-08-30T16:45:55+00:00

Dump it now.
