Auto dry car wash Posted April 25, 2004 at 12:00 am

Today feels like the end of vacation or something. I’ve had a very enjoyable visit with family and I’m feeling better today than I have in weeks (not 100% mind you, but better).

I wanted to try out the Mr. Clean AutoDry carwash that I picked up yesterday at Wal-Mart. The product claims a spot-free finish with only air drying. Well, drying takes half the time and I’m happy to report that Mr. Clean’s product seems to work as advertised. I washed the car in moderate sunlight, followed the directions, and left the car to air dry. The result was a clean car (my own sloppiness nonwithstanding) with no apparent spotting (yay!). The initial investment cost is moderate and the filter is only rated for three washes before replacement. It remains to be seen if cost will outweigh convenience.

After saying my farewells, I hit the road for Atlanta once again. The trip went by quickly and without event (a far cry from Friday afternoon). As the evening deepened, I turned my attention to finishing my 3090 project. By Monday morning , I had a satisfactory implementation of the assignment.
