The reason is that when I stopped using Mr Clean and went back to my Zaino shampoo, the black in my mitt disappeared. If it was truly just dirt, why didn't it wash out as easily with the Mr Clean shampoo?

And it really did look like the Mr Clean shampoo left a slippery film on the car's surface. Not saying that's bad, but it did seem, well, odd.

Oh, and the Mr Clean shampoo and zaino are indeed compatible. Not in the sense that you can use the zaino shampoo followed by the Mr Clean rinse and get the same self-drying results, but in the sense that they won't do any harm if you alternate between the two systems.

I'm kind of ambivalent about the Mr Clean system at this point. I will probably stick with the Zaino shampoo followed by the water blade and MF towels.
