Product Description
We’ve all had to swiftly run round our cars to dry them before water spots form, which are very hard to remove and can badly affect paintwork. And try as you might, washing and drying will cause swirl marks and light surface scratching.
Existing in-line water filters are either very expensive or have incredibly short lives, and can waste the casing, which is very environmentally unfriendly. For example, the AquaGleem filter is 2.5 litre capacity, typically retails at £55. That’s 54% more expensive than our unit costing you 38p per litre. The Race Glaze unit costs 25p per litre, as supplied with its first fill of mineral-absorbing resin,and only 10p per litre with subsequent refills ! Based on hard Harpenden water.

The Race Glaze Maxi-Filter uses a durable fibreglass tank ready filled with premium A1 grade resin (note: some budget filters use sharps – broken reject resin) and comes ready for you to add standard Hozelock-type connectors to begin use immediately. The tank is pressure tested, certified to 11 bar and made in Europe. Tap water enters the tank and under mains pressure is forced up through the resin bed to emerge on the outlet side as close to 0 parts per million (ppm) of dissolved solids as possible. Usually this is 0 - check your hosepipe isnt encrusted with limescale for example - idelaly, buy a new length from the filter outlet to your hand held final sprayer.
You can use a pressure washer or just mains pressure, with no degradation of water pressure at the delivery end. And no need to empty when you have finished your wash, just turn off the mains.
Using a hosepipe to wash a car uses approx. 30 litres of water (AutoExpress 21/3/2012), a final rinse only a fraction of that – we estimate 5-7 litres at most. This is a breakthrough in filtered water product for car washing that very popular. AutoExpress regarded it very highly and featured it as one of their 'Products of the Year' in December 2013.
Accessories: Water Hardness Meter so you can test the water to see when resin needs replacing, fittings, bracket and replacement resin in 7 litre or 25 litre bags. Also Flow Meter so you can check how much you have used, refill funnel/cap kit too.
