Re: Carcube
Am gonna have to disappoint you Liam and say that it will NOT remove the caked mud, the jet is not strong for this type of application.

Re: Carcube
Thanks Jalal,
Appreciate your honest answer there, but what if the mud is still wet/moist prior to it drying? or does this not matter as mud is mud? Does it atleast remove some of it? like off wheels, calipers,etc IF the mud finds its way in there?
Also I've had another option and I know this is going off the topic of the CarCube, but I have been looking at the Karcher Winner 11 (RRP $99 I think) which is capable of drawing from a bucket filled with water, this requires a special hose to do this job which is about $50 but I am not sure if this is sold seperate for this model, or comes with it, the only downer with this option is its 120V and needs mains to operate  and if we go purchase a convertor it starts costing more then I bargained for.
But who is going to carry around a bucket, water, pressure washer AND convertor.... And thats why i like the idea of the CarCube, you can fill it up prior to leaving and go from there.. Nothing else needed...

Re: Carcube
Hi Liam, it will remove some of it or if you plan on using 10 bucket fulls to do so, in which case you might as well use the tap LOL

P-S I forgot to mention also, how does it go removing sand from your days out at the beach? Does it have enough pressure to remove sand from the little hidy holes in the wheel bay? i.e. in front of the rear wheel.
Yep, that it can do with no problems.

Re: Carcube
I finally got to use my Carcube after Santa left it for me. It's about what I expected, not quite the same as your usual garden hose but it gets the job done and I will certainly be washing the Exy more often.

Re: Carcube
I washed the exy before the QLD Meet-up and the CarCube did the job perfectly well.

Re: Carcube
After a day playing in the sand at Boat Harbour I got the Carcube out as soon as I got home and it actually seemed to have better pressure and performed better than its initial effort??????
