Cheap Water Filter To Help With Car Wash & Water Spots! 

I used one of the camco filters on my hose to detail my car today. Didn’t really notice much of a difference over just straight water. Il keep it on there since I paid for it already but I doubt I buy more

Thank you for actually testing the before and after TDS. I'll pass on this and save and money.

That’s what I figured and probably the exact reason this slickster didn’t do a tds. Thank you.

I'm so glad you said you're from arizona... I'm looking for something like this.... Water here is pretty brutal for washing your car without something like this.

It’s a crap video with no tds before and after. Yes you are supposed to mist on the final rinse but when it’s only a 20pt reduction in tds it’s worthless in Arizona.

I was surprised to see this filter work so well.. Not perfect but it certainly helps!

Hmm.. I never new this. I have some in my RV. I’m trying it soon,

Bob robert can u give me the intire lay out where u got ur parts from or sites

Yes I'd be interested in more exact details of what you describe as well. My water is so hard !

The 2 different filters I used are Dupont WFPF 13003 B (blue) comes with a 10 micron filter and mounting bracket (not used) and Dupont universal valve in head (clear) WFPF 38001 C includes 5 micron carbon wrap filter no mounting bracket. These units take standard 10" filters. The most important filter is the Aquatic Life reverse osmosis deionization (RODI) color indicating mixed bed DI resin filter. These come 'with 3/4 " NPT so I used common pvc connections in between and NPT to GHT connectors on in and out along with quick connects. The in head units seem to have a leaking problem so i recomend using joint compound and or extra tape for the connections and waiting 24 hrs before using. I set up my units in a U configuration to fit in a husky tool caddie from HD . All items were purchased through amazon, e-bay or home depot

Thank you for the details. I wanted to do more than just the RV filter, but not go all out with cost, plus wanted to be mobile. Love your U configuration and fitting it in the Husky Tool Caddy !

i did and the tds is still the same. 630 ppm going in my d.i.

@@joelellingson679 good to know. Do you think having the filter in front of the ionizer helps to take the load off of the resin, and maybe prevents it from loading up with contamination? Even if the resulting PPM is still the same

Well it turns out they’re both crap! It’s actually not cost effective at all because it’s a total waste of $ guy! Crapco!

I have already thought about it but something tells me we would need something else.. Or perhaps I'm to stupid to figure it out..lol

Thank you so much! I'm excited everyone loves the quality of the towels.. Much love my friend

I will make some videos again about winter washing but I have discussed it in videos before.. Krause & Becker paint sprayer, worx hydroshot plus rinseless washing

That's so cool.. I don't follow his channel but I'm happy he shared the same information to help others

Something I'm working on... More testing to go.. Perhaps early 2019

@@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343 Hello Scott this is Louis from Camco manufacturing. We would like to send you some filters to test out that have been made specifically for hard water we would like your feed back let me know.

People who vote democrat, ruin their state, and then move to a republican state because it’s better for some strange reason.

That's easy......Politics!!!

loniedupre88 for what's it's worth I use ONR with distilled water. 1 capful in 1 gal. I brought 2 gallons put a capful into each one, dumped into a 3 gallon bucket with a lid. I have washed my car 3 times and I don't think I have used 1/2 a gallon yet. It takes me 2 16x16 inch towels to do my Honda Accord. Dry as I finish one section and follow up with Optimum spray wax. My car is a black 2005 & daily driver. And I get lots of compliments on how nice it looks. By the way the water costs under a dollar per gallon. Good luck

Blair Stewart thanks man. I’ve been using ONR for a while now. Always with distilled water. I’m just trying to see if I can get away with tap water lol. I tried it today with regular tap water and it didn’t work nearly as well as distilled of course. Hoping the filter gets me close enough to the performance of distilled water without having to buy gallons and gallons of the stuff. Trying to not have so many jugs to throw away.

loniedupre88 I understand completely. Keep us posted on your results.

Blair Stewart definitely. Going rinseless personally and professionally for ecological reasons. Throwing a bunch of plastic jugs away doesn’t help much lol. I’ll still need some distilled water for a few things but just trying to get away with as much as I can without cutting corners and quality.

Blair Stewart so it came in and and tried out using the filtered water with ONR. I like it. No additional water spotting from what was already from rain. It felt almost as slick as distilled water. Dried very easily as well. I wasn’t in direct sunlight so I still need to try that. But so far I think it’s a winner. Probably in summer months I’ll still need to use distilled water, but I think this will get me by for the majority of the time and save money and plastic.

Where do you think Scott got the idea from ?

@@fasteddie9877 well the thing is that I like this version better because it filters better, lasts longer and water pressure should be better as well so I don't care if he copied auto fanatic

It's $53 on Amazon.

@@rickjack78 Sure you're not reading that backwards? 😅

@@Voltis-5 No, it's a different model within the line.

I discuss that within the video

Absolutely.. Some of those systems can be costly but will definitely help

I understand your point.. Most if not all on RU-vid that leave links are making money off your purchase. I want to remain transparent with my reviews and I don't think it's fair to make profit off my viewers unless it's a product I own. Thanks for the comment

@@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343 Sometimes it's a little too quick to catch the product name. I've read your comments about why you do not link the products but if you could simply leave the names of the products in the description then that should help your viewers without you making money off it as you've expressed. I've learned a lot and appreciate your videos with all that said.

Of course and I mention that in the video.. But having this filter vs nothing is helpful and I can see it in the results

@@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343 Seeing is believing!

@@jonnieinbangkok not always.. I can't see air but I know I need it to survive..lol

Jonnie Bangkok, I really wonder what this filter is doing. Chemically, If it really removes heavy metals like iron and copper, then maybe it's also picking up some of the magnesium and calcium that are the bulk of the water spot material? Or maybe the heavier metals play a role in water spotting? Maybe stabilize the crystals in the water spot and make them harder to remove? Lots of possibilities. Probably the carbon isn't a factor, but who knows, maybe there are organics in the water that are involved in water spotting.

@@incognitotorpedo42 it doesn't remove carbon, it uses carbon as the filter medium to remove any particles over 5 microns.

I have a 60 gallon tank and need for like 15-20 washes a week..

LOL, your right. I'll still get me a filter. I have a filter for my garden water.

I mention my method within the video when I replace the filter in the future

Scott mentions in the video where to buy and how much

Peter Doane thank you. I was racking my brain thinking who he sounds like.

Alan Alda c’mon man

Howard stern

Sounds good

Albert M you can buy then at Walmart or any RV store.

Good question.. I'm not really sure.. I purchased mine at Wal-Mart and it's a 5.0 micron carbon filter. I paid I believe around 45 dollars

its one of the best for the money...it depends on your water quality though, cr spotless can get costly if its trying to filter really hard water

Aquaticlife has a two filter deionization set up for around $90

You will begin to see water spots that are harder to remove.. I just play it safe and replace the filter every two months.. It's so cheap so I don't over think it

Dallas Paint Correction & Auto Detailing thank you so much Scott! I always love your videos

Put two gauges on the filter. One in front and one after. When the differential becomes high the filter is plugging off.

No distilled water would be better but if you need more water flow and don't want to spend a lot of money, this option will help.. Obviously RO water or cr spotless machine is your best option

Thanks so much! :)

Because I'm not an affiliate with Amazon and I don't think I should make profit off products I don't own.. I discuss where I buy and how much.. If I can find it I have no doubt others can as well..

@@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343 what do you think of glass sealants are they worth the time and money

howard does not have an accent, not even the least, hes a professional broadcaster and he trained himself NOT to sound like a New Yorker, if anything Scott sounds liker BOBO

Umm ... not at all.

That's awesome.. I don't follow others on RU-vid but I'm happy the word is out and it's helping others..

It was his brother! Auto Fanatic, I think that's the correct name.

@@emiller7040 lol.. I know of him and he seems like a great guy but I don't follow his videos.. Sounds like another smart New Yorker..lol I'm happy he shared it as well

@@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343 He confirmed to someone he is your brother. Was he kidding?

@@emiller7040 we aren't brothers.. Did he really say that? I'm sure he was kidding
