CHIEFZUSAF Posted August 13, 2003 Report Share Posted August 13, 2003 Do any of you use laser/touchless washes? I tried one the other day since I was short of time to wash the SSS. It did a fairly good job but I did have to follow up with Meguirs Detail Spray to remove some little water spots...it did save a bunch of time though.

Silvsteve Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Don't use them if you have a lot of dirt or dust on your truck! They can cause scratches. At least in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joebobchevy Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Touchfree car washes are great. I own 2 of them. Awesome cleaning ability when the right chemicals and Soft water are used, oh and spot free rinse is a must. Never use a roof beater rollover type they really hurt. Some full service touch washes will also do a number on your clear coat as well. (The Brushes hold dirt) Touch-free is just that . Just 1000-1200psi a foot away from our new trucks. Plus the chicks dig it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Never been a big fan of machine washes, although I have used in the past. I pretty much would rather run dirty for a while before I used one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSminneapolis Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 i use that laser wash all the time...they do a great job...they have one at the holiday gas station just a mile away from my shop...it gets the truck clean...if i really want my truck clean i sit at the shop for an entire afternoon and do my 3 step cleaner/polisher/waxing system from meguires...and for those of us that choose black the high tech yellow wax seems to be the best...my paint is just like glass...i usually go through about 10 terry towels when waxing...the towel just flyies right out of my hand...soo smooth...that and for the interior...i used wurth products...from a company out of germany...autopia.com sells the "ockpit cleaner"...works great and leaves a matte finish...smells good to...static free as well..give it a shot...

blackhawk Posted August 27, 2003 Report Share Posted August 27, 2003 Since I am an owner of the most gorgeous looking color when clean and shiny... I use a brushes automatic carwash at the local gas station I go to. It is just water guns that blast dust of and use soft water. Only cost 3 bucks and I do it about every 4-5 days or so. I don't pay the extra money for the wax junk that you can get, don't want any of that junk on my truck. The brush less carwash works good to keep the black beauty clean after one of the annoying AZ dust storms... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
