SS Silv Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 Winters coming and I am getting a little lazy plus its getting to cold to wash my truck outside. I have resorted to touchless car washes. I don't like the idea of the chemicals on my paint. I realize the it will strip all my wax off, but can it do any permanent damage to my paint? Does anyone else use touchless car washes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone else use touchless car washes? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm not 100% clear on what chemicals a 'touchless car wash" uses... i've tried researching and never could get a straight answer. IMO find a good hand wash place that uses 100% lambswool or something similar. It may cost a couple bucks more, but better than letting machines or chemicals do the work.

Rays B4U Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 We have a new spot free touchless in town that I use from time to time, usually when it's too hot or cold outside to wash by hand. I also buy the tokens from that carwash for our work vehicles and I have noticed that if you don't wipe down the areas that dribble water from the mirrors, trim, etc after a while residue will start to build up leaving a streak that is hard to get off. I don't have the streak problem with the SS because I take the time to wipe off the dribbles, but alot of the time I don't have the time to do it to my work car so it has some streaks I'm going to have to take the clay bar to.

artval Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 i use the touchless carwash about twice a month (Yeah, I'm lazy sometimes, and sometimes I work too much). It's pretty good. As long as the truck is not too dirty it does a really good job. I don't use the gas station ones though, they suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiel Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 For 10k this guy will wash it for you: $10.000 carwash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS Silv Posted October 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 (edited) For 10k this guy will wash it for you:$10.000 carwash <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Interesting video. But I will pass. I will stick with a local detailer that could do the same job for 120$. But of course the products won't be as expensive.
