Touchless Car Wash...

[chief44]

Just gathering thoughts and opinions...

 

We just had a steady amount of rain locally and my car obvioulsy needs a two-bucket wash.

 

My question -- if I run the car through a touchless wash and do not use any products on the car, should I be okay until my two-bucket wash? I hate having a dirty car and my next opportunity to two-bucket wash it will be during the weekend. So...I thought..."Hey, wonder if washing it automatically and not touching the paint until it's properly 2-bucket washed is okay?"

 

Thus...it led me to the gurus.

Shouldn't be a problem. Just avoid anything that could introduce swirls/scratches in the paint (like their foam brush, waterblades, etc.).

if i could fit into them again they are worth while in the winter to get the salt off since you cant wash a vehicle for like 4 months.

Agree with Geoff, I am going to use these in the winter. then get a 2 bucket wash in every now and then in the heated garage at the parents house

I use the touchless in the winter a lot! Gets the salt off the underside of the vehicle! However I usually dry HEAVILY with waterless wash.

Awesome replies. Thanks for the feedback everyone!

Make sure you don't select any waxes or polish.

You'll be rubbing it out of every nook and crannie when it dries out
