All professional drive through car washes use pure water for thier final rinse, we wash all the vans weekly with pure water, even our Fiats and Renault Trafic !!

I think I have about 8769 washes left on it before it falls to bit's.

Ewan, Hope you're not driving a Transit as that'll be a rust bucket after driving through a small puddle never mind actually risking washing it.  That's why you see so many filthy builders Transits, they're too scared to wash them!

I always wash my van and car with pure water. Btw my van is a Ford transit Connect.

I heard that pure water takes off the polish......then it can affect the paint?

If its pure water with DI RESIN, its toxic isnt it?.... but thru a ro-system it should be ok.... surely tap water would do more damage than pure..... unless its di-onised.

I have been cleaning my 03 Traffic for the last 2 years with pure water from the van and the paint work is still glossy, it looks much newer than all the other same year vans that I have seen. Someone thought it was new!! Oh no I said, its the pure water look.

I use my wfp to clean my Fiat Doblo - it's fine. I've had it over two years from new.

What if you already have IPA in the water? I take it its a no go for paintwork?

Reachwash do you have permission from Ioniccs to use  that name??? ; )

[Reachwash]

Yes, they came and blessed me and the van and the legal body I used to register the name, they sprinkled everything with pure holy water, my son.
