If you live in a hard water area it is not a filter you need to stop stains, it is a water softener, . As the water evaporates off the bodywork, the white stains you see is mostly calcium. This cannot be filtered out as it is dissolved in the water. Check your kettle to see if you have hard water. The white crust on the heating element is often called limescale.

I suggest using a car squeegee after final rinse. You can swipe the entire L494 in under a minute and it makes drying it a lot quicker, which results in less water spots. I can’t recommend a ceramic coating enough, I apply it myself to all my vehicles 2020 SVR / R.I.P. 2019 SVR / 2016 D4 Landmark / 2005 D3 HSE |

Not quite true. Get yourself inline resin filters and a TDS meter, my water here is 270 parts per million of crap, but goes up and down daily. I foolishly brought a small resin filter like window cleaners would use, using a hose pipe for swill down this drops it to around 60ppm, so I brought a larger one, and use them inline, the small one takes all the hit (as it holds less resin, cheaper to refill), and the larger one just polishes the water and lasts longer, and gets it to 0 ppm. But resin isn't cheap, I also use mine for water for my tropical fish, I was paying £2.50 per 20/25 litres depending where went. And I need 60+ litres on a water change for the fish tank. So photos, resin filters, tds meter and my rinsed/air dryer car. |

Bilt Hamber - Touchless for snow foam , the latest version I have used most and this is superb on my black RRS. The Bilt Hamber Auto Wheel wheel cleaner is also the best product I have used on wheels |
