Quick note: if your GPM (gallons per minute) are over 2 then you will be pushing water through the system to fast and may not be giving it enough time to pull all the solids out of the water. This will cause some water spots as u see in the video. Make sure you run less than 2 GPM and you will have no problems.
Quick question as I finally see someone bringing this up. If that is the case and my my hose is pushing more than 2 GPM how can I slow it down? Is there a piece of plumbing equipment I can buy?
@@joshuazatarain7967 yes, there are fitting that fit on the faucet with on off levers. U can open and close the valve or anything in between so the water flow is disrupted.
Great video Benji. Thanks for bringing these products to light. I've heard of "On the Go" Deionizers before but they are not a real well known brand like some of the other deionizers for detailing use. They look super stout though. The only thing that has kept me from getting one is getting past that darn resin refill cost. But the way you broke it down, and explained it, approx 63 rinses. That actually makes it sound more cost effective. Depending on how often you wash, 63 times is quite a lot and that should last a good while. Especially if you supplement it with rinseless washes. With that much, I could probably get close to a year before needing a resin refill and that is well worth it to get rid of the hard water spots. I have SUPER HARD WATER! It's nuts how bad it is. I can't wash my vehicle in the sun or it will have spots almost instantly. I always have to wait for shade or do it inside. That's the only way I can effectively wash my vehicles with limited water spotting. As far as Presto, I have never used that Polish Angel product but have heard good things about it. I'm going to get me a bottle of that on my next Polish Angel order. Looks like a great quick detailer for use in between using the Rapidwaxx. I could rotate every other wash between the two. I also believe there is some protection in that Presto. Not sure what it is, but they definitely have something in it. Either light Si02 or some form of Silica or Titania..., something. Glad you are liking the Polish Angel stuff. It's a fantastic line of products. My next order with them is to get a few of their interior products to try out and add to my collection.
Yes, ur right on all accounts. And the resin isn’t that bad if I’m doing it once a year or so. Makes life easier for sure. Very well built product here. Loving it and I am still getting used to it. Yes, they have some good chemicals in Presto for protection just like the waxes. 2-3 if I remember correctly. So it’s a nice in between the waxes or High Gloss. I really really liked it. And the scent is fantastic!!
They sell different kits. This one has 2 tanks that come filled with resin. How many gallons u get depends on how bad your water is. I get about 60 rinses at 5gallons a rinse. My TPMS is 440.
I'd be worried about using a system that doesn't get you 0ppm since even a low level like 6 can result in water spots depending on the minerals causing that reading.
Hey John, you could lower the water pressure a little bit and probably get 0. If you're like me, just buy 2 of these and hook them up in tandem and you'll get zero water for about 2 years washing and rinsing your car once a week.
If I want to do just the final rinse with this system does it come with like an on and off turn knob so that I can just use it on the final rinse without having to connect and disconnect? Thank you!
Also, using a 100 gallon setup with one pressure washer hose, do you think it will be counter productive doing just the final rinse with this system since I’ll be introducing hard water with the rinses before the final rinse? I’m almost thinking it may just be better to constantly run the system rather than just for final rinse for that reason. Thoughts?
@@christophergaribay2166 u can buy or make your own bypass valve system for it. So u turn it on for the final rinse and off when not needing it. If u have really dirty water u will eat through the resin fast. That’s why we recommend only final rinse.
How are you using you tank? Full wash, rinse only? What is your TDS? They have the chart on their website that tells you exactly what you’re going to get with whatever your TDS is.
As a fellow Las Vegan, how often are you buying resin refills? I do my final rinse in the garage, but even with flooding the panel with free-flowing water and blowing out the crevices, the water is still drying too quickly. I've been researching for a while on the economics of getting an On-The-Go system.
@@DetailingBreakdown my water is 130 here in north California from my water source feeding my pressure washer. I got the kit above this model. I should get about 2000 gallons before changing my resin witch is fantastic. Can’t wait to get it in. Ordered mine today.
Super thick shaving cream foam (like in this video) is too dry and light to dissolve and carry away the minerals left behind by the rain. Thick super foam looks good, but a wetter, runnier foam works much better.
U want around 1-1.5 gallons per minute running through them. This way the water gets cleaned. So depending on what pressure washer u use it may or may not. Remember, these should be used for final rinse as u will eat the resin up using them for a full detail

The volume of errors you made in washing your car, DI testing, usage, and many more...are so flawed in this video 3 years ago is mind-blowing.
@@golf007sd2 thanks for watching, I out errors in all my videos for people to find and comment on. Please watch more videos and let me know. Ty
Good tools for the hard water in Vegas, great idea, ty Ben
Oh, it’s an excellent tool for the hard water.

I work at a metal factory and we have a huge system by this same brand to filter water and it works
I just got mine in yesterday, luckily on the east coast our water here only reads at 115PPM on average! Pumped to use these, great video.
Ohh, that’s low. Ur gonna have lots of deionized water with this kit
I need one of these.. I'm going to wait till the spring...good vid
Thank you, they are going to be a super big help come summer
wow finally see someone with harder water than me. Most people I see have around 100+ppm on youtube and I have around 300ppm. Thanks for the video!
Ya, mine is awful
Pretty cool. Love the SUV. I would love to have a AMG GLC63 or GLE63
Ya, they are nice! I’d love to have one as well. 😆
Dang we must have some good water here in Columbia , SC highest I’ve ever seen was 54ppm on my tds meter.
Oh wow, that drinking water. U would get many many gallons from a system like this with that low TDS.
I’ve been on the fence about one. But the water here in SoCal is so bad it’s like in the 600 range. So I doubt I’ll get too many gallons out of it.
That will really reduce the amount of gallons.
for the free spot I have to buy the two filters or just one and how many cars can I wash with that?

@@DetailingBreakdown sorry just one more question. after those 60 used it's time to buy another new filter or just the inside part
Hell yeah that sweater is also dope I'm also from east Los Angeles
Orale
I am in vegas also. Have you used other DI systems and if so which one. I am Looking for a cheaper alternative. Thanks
No, this is the only one I’ve used. It used to be $500. It’s on sale. This is a 2 stage as well. Really helps with our water. Good luck on your search

How long does the tank last you? I have a single tank and it doesn't last that long for me which gets expensive

Depends on how many gallons u use and how hard ur house water is. I figured I get about 60-80 rinses at 5 gallons a rinse for my set up.
where in mexico were you originally from?
Part of my ancestry is from Sonora.
How long did this last you before changing out the resin?
I don’t have to use often. But that depends on your water and how dirty it is.
