Anyone use the App to get their vehicles washed at the local car wash. They offer unlimited washes (one a day) for a monthly fee.
We have a newly renovated drive thru with 4 options 14.00 for express up to 23.00 for the works. Seems like a ok deal to me. This would not be used to replace hand washing during warmer weather. They claim you can cancel at any time.

So what do you think, I live on a private gravel road about a half mile in and its getting to dam cold for me to hand wash.

I've thought about doing it, because despite looking at the weather, every time I wash my car it rains or snow or something. Just make sure it is touchless. You can see the people in town who are part of the Mister Car Wash or whatever program and get the car covered with fine scratches from the brushes and/or hand dries afterwards. Looks good from 20 feet away, but anywhere closer its a hot mess of fine lines everywhere, especially if its a black car.

I used a local one, $26 a month for up to two washes per day. I started noticing scratches and chips in my paint so I stopped using it. I’m very particular about my cars and long term those brushes are bad for paint, especially if you have muddy or sandy vehicles in front of you. That grit stays on the brushes and will scratch paint.

I'm very anal about my vehicles. Don't use car washes. Hand wash only. Car washes are rough on the finish IMO.

Sorry should of added the local wash is brushless/laser so that should prevent the scratches.

No car washes for me due to damage in past.

In winter time I use bucket of hot water and then hose down.

If I was building a house, I would have a mixer valve for hot and cold outside.

I’ve read that those use caustic soaps to remove dirt since they are touchless. Obviously those would be bad too if that were true.
