I had the smaller unit and it had the holes predrilled as well so no worries for wall mount use.

Once you use this you will be hooked, I don't care how quick you can dry the car, it's hard to believe you have absolutely no spots or worries when using the CR. I can wash my car at 2PM in the sun of Florida and still have no spots, even on a black car.

The rolling mount cannot be put on the wall because it has a handle. You'll need the wall mount you originally wanted jkb. I'll have a group buy up today....stay tuned.

How does it work if you put it on the wall? I assume it'll be inside the garage?

So one hose needs to go from outside (water switch) to inside the garage (wall mount), then another one goes from inside (wall mount) to outside (to wash the car)?

Yup..same concept as the rolling cart, except it's stationary on the wall. Some people have a connection inside the garage and it works well.

Thank you, Moe. How often do you have to replace the filters/add refills? They cost quite a bit, too...

When the meter reads around 25-30 ppm. You can buy it in a 1 cu/ft drum, not big, and it's $195. $65/ recharge. Most my clients are going through the resin every 6-8 months.

I'm lucky enough to live close to Moe and we did a tech session this morning where I go to try out his CR Spotless on my car. The results are pretty amazing - completely spotless and no need to rush to dry the car.

I'm obviously in for the group buy.

As many clients can vouch, my group buys are always successful and on the level. You don't have to worry about any funny business. So I'd appreciate giving me the business and not going direct Please feel free to call me so you can put a voice to the name.

I'll get you the dimentions later today. I'd go w/ the DIC-20. One, you can flow 4 gpm as opposed to 2 gpm, much better flow. Two, since there's more resin in the unit, twice as much, you chnage the resin less often. 9 out of 10 clients go w/ the larger unit and most get the DIC-20. I'll call CR again today and get something up tonight.
