    Your throughts on these is it true that the water gets recycled meaning that your car is getting sprayed with salty water of every car before you ??

    nah if it's recycled, it's still going to have to be filtered and therefore the salt and impurities will have been removed... may not be to drinking standard but would definitely have to be to the standards of gray water... logically speaking anyway 8O

    From a blurb about CarLovers:

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'> ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY
    “CarLovers, good for your car, good for the environment”
    Blue Green Algae and Red Tide are terms increasingly familiar around the world as excess phosphates and detergents raise the nutrient levels in our waterways. CarLovers has a massive investment in recycling technology and a commitment to phosphate-free biodegradable cleaners. Our research and development over many years has ensured we are at the forefront of carwash waste water recycling in Australia[/b][/quote]

    Filtering wont remove dissolved salts etc.

    If it did the NSW gov wouldn't be spending millions on a desalination plant.
