Where do you wash your car?

I recently picked up my X7 M60, and I'm looking for a reputable car wash in the NYC region.

Would really appreciate it if you could suggest a place.

I do it myself.

This way you will know that no gritty sponges were used wielded by a spotty 17 year old.

my own driveway.

my own wash mitts

my own tire brushes

my own buckets

my own pressure washer

my own microfiber towels (single use only)

my own blower/dryer

my own shampoos

my own was/polish/spray

my own hands

Waterless wash using a gallon or two of distilled water and optimum no rinse car wash in my garage. Takes less than 30 mins.

I agree, the product is really good. I didn't believe what it could do, but after using it... I was surprised.

In addition, we can make a mixture with a small amount of "no rinse" and have a ready-made product that can, for example, replace QD or window cleaner.

WOLFGANG CONCOURS SERIES Uber SiO2 Rinseless Wash works great! I wash in my garage….top to bottom detail in under an hour. Dilute with distilled water in a good spray bottle (always keep a bottle and a good microfiber in my trunk for when I get bombed by birds )
