I have found that it actually takes me a bit longer to was the car with Mr. Clean than without. This is because the soap/water spray and the filtered water rinse don't come out in a huge sploosh. More like a nice medium-fine spray. Maybe I have not got the technique down yet but it just seems to take me longer to wash the car.

As far as the wax goes...during the rinse with the filtered water (after the soap application) the water does not bead up anymore - it runs off like you see in the commercials. This is also noticable after it rains too...but looks more like there isn't any wax there to do the normal beading and it doesn't run off like after the Mr. Clean application. It just looks like you have not wax'd the car in 3-4 months (water beading - not shine).

Apply wax again and it is back to beading. What does all this mean? Not sure...LOL
