Car Wash?

refresher72 · 02-03-2012, 12:13 PM

Is it ok to do a regular auto car wash found in gas stations on my GL? or hand car wash is better? I never tried the auto car wash on GL, so wondering if it is ok? Pls share your experiences...

IMO there is nothing wrong with automatic car washes as long as they are touch less. Sure they don't clean the car very well compared to hand washing but who can hand wash a car when the temperature outside is 20 F?

Ugh. Parked my GL the other day and a bunch of birds decided to take craps all over my windshield and hood. Windshield washer fluid only got off 90% of what was on the windshield.

Thanks for my reminding me to wash my car very soon.

Never go to hand wash... Dirty reused towels= swirls...

Touch less is best
