Hey Ruckus, From the commercial, it's a different color. ( black, the regular one is blue) I think you get different attachments and stuff. I don't know for sure but I try to find out and post it back to you in a couple of days.

Synthetic Chamois for the paint, follow with a towel for the glass. If it's just dusty, I shoot it off with water and dry it- too much soap just pulls all that wax off of the finish. I never wash in the full sun. I've also gotten real warm and cozy with white, silver, and beige. My '93, '96, and '98's paint looks like the day they were new.

Honestly, the best thing to do is not use high pressure water to rinse. Always rinse from the hose, without a nozzle. If you're using a pressure washer, don's use it to rinse. That cuts out about 80% of the water left on the surface, and makes your life way easier... I learned that from a detailing class put on by an automotive restorative museum a few hours from my house...

Can't wait to try my new Pro Series this weekend (if the rain stays away). Nice girlfriend bought it for me at Walmart. I may let her ride in the truck if it works well. Ha!

You are welcome Ruckus! Yes, she is pretty nice in a pinch. Still not sure if I am going to let her drive the truck though. I will let you know the difference between the two as soon as I am able to use the thing (hopefully this Saturday).

On our way back from a spring break thing we stopped at Advance Auto to purchase Pro Series Mr Clean AutoDry System.As soon as we walked through the door the Starter Series was on display.The fellow comes from behind the counter and asked if he could help.I told him I was looking for the Pro Series and he said they did not carry it and had never heard of it.As we were getting ready to leave my wife said there it is.Sure enough an entire end rack full of them.Anyway bought it for $34.88 and bought extra filter for $5.88.Will let you know what I think after I try it.We are supposed to have snow and rain for the next few days.Thanks to everyone for the great info. and help!

I just used my Mr. Clean on my black truck last night. Worth every penny of the $15.00 I paid. I was pretty amazed how well it worked even after reading all the posts about it. Thanks for the info.

How often do you have to change the filters on the Mr Clean?
