Yes, a water softener is a huge improvement!
A softener, however, simply exchanges "unwanted" ions for better ones. The softener removes hardness (calcium and magnesium) and replaces it with sodium. The process is called ion exchange. The sodium forms less scale and depsoits, but when it evaporates to dryness, it still leaves behind the sodium.
By going to even better water quality for your final rinse, the car will get even cleaner! because you have softwater already, the "Mr. Clean" final rinse water (deionized) will work perfectly. Sodium is one of the most soluable substances on earth and the demin spray from the Mr. Clean system will easily wash away the water from your softener. Also, you will get much more than the three rinses from the demineralizer with softwater. Probably more like 5 - 8.
