You're supposed to pull in slowly for the tire/chassis spray

Should've checked results there. Could've picked up more dirt on your way back..

I live at the touchless carwash, every Friday for three years,It cleans the car Very well ! ...I have no spider webs showing up in my paint. ... Spray a light cleaner on the wheels before you run it through the car wash and it comes out very well. 👍

just washed my maxima yesterday here in Texas. today i was going to take the dogs to the lake in the jeep but its to cold. i wouldnt use these without knowing more information. is it acidic/alkaline would be my main concern. chances are it is. still a spotless is better then a autowash.

Just before you pull into the car wash, how about spraying the road grime with a strong vehicle wash like Purple Power? Let it dwell for a few minutes, then proceed with the touchless wash. Might work for the people who don't have a foam cannon and/or power washer. All you would need is an inexpensive pump sprayer.

These are the best to go to car washes!!!

If you live in New England and it's winter time, the touchless car wash is worth every penny. Got to keep that salt off. I do the undercarriage and body wash once a week through the entire winter. Then you need to do it early spring because the salt is still on the road until it all washes off. Also today was about 20 degrees. 35 would have been beautiful!

What kind of spoiler is that? It goes great with your car.

The local gas station had both self car washing and touch less wash. I blasted the car with their water gun to get the loose dirt/debris off before I did the proper wash. I was surprised at how much dirt water alone took off & I might have to start doing it that way more often. Plus, it's one of the cheaper car washes where I live.

I have a decent touch less wash in my town. Doesn't touch the wheels at all though. Then I take advantage of the light left over water to do a quick spray on wax hand dry. This isn't my normal hand wash routine but I normally do it before a car club cruise.

I guess I see why the one by my house is $10 compared to your $7. During the drying cycle, the jets pass by the car just like when washing. lol. It did decent on my TBSS after driving from Cleveland, OH back to the Upstate of SC. Got most of the salt, snow, and road grime off.

this was surprisingly funny!

Where is this place? Like the name of the touchless drive through? I am in search of one like this- i am from texas too

Ayyyy Seahawks!!!!

PECO's equipment with Neoglide is the way to go for car washes. the neoglide does not absorb dirt or water so the brushes actually fling dirt away from the vehicle. and if you are lucky enough, there are PECO Car washes that offer a wax service that applies the wax by hand then the car is sent through a tunnel with all the brushes being shammy like material that buffs the wax . its the only car wash i take my car through and people cant believe my car is 2 years old

I think you only paid for the cheap basic $7 dollar car wash. What are the results if you spend the extra $2 dollars and got the high end wash?

Certified Detailer here in Austin. Yes those touchless washes strip most if not all your wax. They have to use super aggressive prep soaps, otherwise it barely cleans at all. One thing you can do right after, is use a spray waterless wash, like Wolfgang and then follow up quickly with a spray wax. This will also take away any spotting. Only the last water pass is spot free, so all other water trapped in mirrors or door jambs initially comes out later and streaks. I like Prima hydra max, or Optimum spray waxes.

Looks good👍👍

If you do decide to use touch less car wash make sure your getting the most out of it. When you first enter the wash go in as slow as you can. There is water being shot up to clean under your car and wheels. More dirt could of came of when you showed the ending results. You went really quick through the first step, basically almost skipping it. The drying part was good but I would of at least dry my window and mirrors before taking off. Also any chrome if you have any.

Tried a touchless wash and dried my car with a white towel, a lot of dirt was still on my car! I'll use the brush car wash and a very good wax for protection, in Michigan.

Texas weather is always great Sunny...sometimes rain or flood rain otherwise no snow at all...I love Texas weather...7 is ok here in Canada its like 10 which is about the same ..

I use Crew car wash all the time....maybe twice a month. $10 for a basic wash. Every three months a couple bucks more to add a wax job. The wax is really cheap but does the job. Every six months $3 more to have the underbody done. My only complaint with Crew is that the blow heat never gets the car dry. I always have to dry again by hand to prevent water spots.

Touchless car washes are good if you just washed your car and if you drove it maybe a few miles. Sometimes after it rains and if I rarely drove, I just drive thru them to get the rain off. Sometimes after a 200 mile drive, usually it also works too in case I want a clean car while out of town. I stick to the 1st package “express wash” cheap wash thats like $5-7 then use a detail spray and microfiber towel to dry the car, and usually not much dirt won’t be on my car.

I recently made a video of a touchless car wash using only my foam cannon, power washer, and leaf blower. In this video, I take it one step further as I take my car to a touchless drive-thru car wash instead. The wash ended up costing $7. As you can see from the video, this would be useful if you have very light dirt on your car. But in my case, it's obviously best to just wash the car. Thanks for watching!

You are correct, subtract 30 degrees from what it really is and that's the weather for us Texans lol

lol! I get it your in Texas, I'm in Massachusetts in 30 degrees I'm washing my truck! not thinking I have gone through a carwash in like 0 degree weather and turned my truck into an icicle haha!

Everyone just calm down. Obviously, no automated car wash is very effective. In fact, some can be damaging to the paint. However, if you live in colder climate states with lots of snow, a touchless car wash is welcome...if only to remove some of the road contaminants. And don’t tell me that the soap used will strip the wax. If a couple of passes through a touchless car wax will strip your wax, then you need to get better wax. I’d rather use the touchless to get rid of some of the road salt that’s far more damaging to the paint, than worry about high pH level soap. Ideally, I’d take my car to a hand wash service and/or detailer during the winter but in a pinch, the touchless makes sense.

It is worth it if you live in cold climates such as me. I live in Wisconsin and go through these. My goal is to get the salt off and thats it really

When I know the weather is shit, but want it somewhat clean for the day, I just use foam gun,rinse it and drive it on the highway a little :)

It was 7 bucks. I just did mine. But y you buckle up when going in da tunnel😀seems funny. Good job man. When my daughter bring me his boyfriend if he have a clean car he ll take my ok in 2 sec. Dirty car say a lot bout a guy🙄

I like how you close the door by the rubber window frame/stripping, deal. I do this too but no matter how many time I tell either of the two passengers that are only ever in my car they always grab the whole door and on my last FRS which was black it got FUCKED up.. Now I have a red GT86 which isnt so bad with showing scuffs but still. I always grab that rubber

even with the two bucket method i still manage to grind dirt into my paint....

cleaning and washing?

GO SEAHAWKS!

dirty? come to massachusetts in the springtime after the shit winters we have and see dirty! have to wash 6 times to get all the salt off! 😂

I tried one today with similar results. Its almost a waste of time as only half the car is washed which is the top half. The bottom half which is the dirtiest part hardly gets touched. And the wheels dont get touched at all. So bottom half of the car just remains dirty

Look for a car wash system called a Mark 7, this car wash system is called a laserwash G5

Wait a minute at 4:29 when I saw the Bank of America I realized I live rly close to where you made this video 😂

20MPH?? You're a very naughty boy!! Anyways, just snow foamed my GTI, I think a quick spin up the M1 is in order, just to dry it properly of course ;)

At my wash I work at called blue wave express car wash gives you a second free wash in case there’s a spot our machines missed

At least I'm not the only one that does that at car washes

This San Antonio ?

Goodluck to your hawks! Steelers fan here

Hey dude, thats a video from Austin right? Wheres that touchless wash? Ive been looking for one but cant find one. Thanks in advance and good videos btw.

a good business idea

30 degrees is my summer and its hot for me. Lol in winter its like -10 or -15

Hey man, good videos. Keep them coming! A few questions though: 1. Where did you buy your power washer from? Any links to it. What's your experience with it? 2. I just bought Meguiar's Hyper Wash and the dilution rate is 400:1. Does that mean 1 ounce of the solution needs to be diluted 400 ounces of water? That would be, 30 ml in 12 L of water. Is that correct? Because, when you use the foam cannon, you mix almost 4 ounces of solution to 30 ounces of water. 3. I have a car wash and was wondering on how save time to the customers waiting. Could I vacuum my car while the suds are working? Any recommendations.

The problem I have with touchless is that it kind of messes up the sealant on my paint. The beading is not the same as normal. I believe is the foam they spray.

Great video the automated car was businesses the worst thing you can do for your car as you mention swirl marks etc. There all about volume and most people care less about there cars finish

Im in central texas too!

where did you buy the side skirts?

-30 I hope you would be wearing more then just a hoodie 😎

This is not a dirty car. Come to Michigan after a 70 degree day in April when it snows over night.

Lmao you got no idea what -30 is like. Absolutely no idea...

The system is a laserwash g5-s

Im just curious would you ever sell the aero on your car?

what soap do they use?

I frequently visited Chevron's touchless car washes, but at this point I'm on the fence about touchless carwashes in general. Sure they're outstanding because they have a 0% chance of swirls, but now the grapevine is telling me the chemicals in their soaps prematurely break down wax & sealants. If that's true, that's a major redflag for me.

1: NEVER EVER GO THROUGH A CAR WASH THAT IS ASSOCIATED WITH HEB!!! THEY ARE JUNK!!! 2: This is a LaserWash G5-S The spinning nozzles that spray water off the car spin way too fast and turn the water into mist therefore not cleaning anything 3: Please go through another touchless car wash! I swear you'll change your mind!

Nice burz

Come to winnipeg and then you know what is DIRTY! Lol. Today 1st rain in spring and my brand new brz is destroyed!

Please i need a job at your car wash centre...am currently doing same in Saudi Arabia

You think that's dirty than you haven't seen my car yet, i gave up cleaning it because it gets dirty again after a few days anyways

I did this 2 months ago its not great at all. I think its great if car is hardly part outside and just have dust. Otherwise its a waste of 💰

30 degrees is nice and toasty.

Sometimes.... you gotta do what you gotta do to get salt off , especially the bottom of the car.....

YAKKKKKKK

Haha my car gets dirtier than that in 2 days

When u enter go slow u need the side blasters

hahahaha he buckles his seat belt, once INSIDE the carwash!

Cutie

Where is the cars and coffee in Austin? I just moved to central Texas from Atlanta and I don't know shit about anything out here 😂

Well negative 30 from 30 is 0

This is my exact heb lmfao

Expensive. Can go to a coin wash for less and get all the dirt off.

in Germany, there are a lot of porsches, mercs, bmws, and audis that go through friction washes and don't have swirl marks. that's a myth. the technology and materials have gotten better. other than speed, hand washing with a mitt or sponge is not that different from soft cloth. they both use friction. I agree, in a pinch when we can't wash by hand these aren't so bad.

to me 35F is 1.7C from me I live in the uk

$7????!!!! In Thailand for $7 to get clean by Hands In and Out. By the way I mean car.

Go Hawks!!!

Don't know if it's just the angle but that is a friggen fatty ass steering wheel...

Those types of car washes use really bad aced chemicals that will ruin your paint
