Use a basic soap and make sure to dry the car right away after rinsing. Stay away from wax or coatings.

In my opinion most of these hand car washes are never going to do a good job.They're all about production base business.Getting as many cars washed and out the door. $$ I've watched most of those hand car washes drag those dirty wash mitts from one end the car to the other. Your car will look washed,and clean with some added micro-scratches. Depending on your paints condition you may want to go brushless carwashes instead.

Here are a couple of locations that I've used in the past:

Does anyone have a price list for Spades Auto Spa? Unable to find any information or reviews on this shop. Do they also sell products?

does anyone know of a decent touchless carwash that has bothered to plow their lot? i tried to use auto x press but they did zero snow removal and even though the wash bays are clear, everything else is a skating rink :(

Petro Canada has a promo where they have 5 "SuperWash" car washes on sale for $50. They regularly go for $60. If you register the card online, then you'll get an additional free wash, so it'll be 6 "SuperWash" for $50.

I think DIY are the most anticipating carwash nowadays. Aside from that they really do a good job.

those guys are in ontario, what are you on?

self wash is best wash.

after the snowy season, i bring my car through the touchless at husky on marine. i only run it through the touchless wash maybe once or twice a year to wash the underside.

Bird took a huge shit on my car today and had to drive across town to Archipelago Auto Spa as the touchless ones were all jammed packed. Did a solid job - would have liked that they rinsed their mitts a lot more though but otherwise they hit all the dirty spots.

I usually go to Ultra Shine but even they can be sloppy. A DIY hand wash is still best when time permits.

Tangent: I'm curious if Tiago's auto spa is any good for a basic exterior detail though.

I've brought my car to Tiago's Auto Spa multiple times. They are my preferred detail shop. I've peeked at their ig as well, they do a TON of high end exotics but also normal passenger vehicles. My 2013 Abarth was full of swirls from my own mistakes in handwashing techniques and they did a phenomenal job on the exterior. I plan to bring my 2018 Stinger to them for ceramic soon.

Buddy got his jag f type done there and they nailed the detail!. took my m6 there and no regrets!
