Touchfree Car Wash

I really like this car wash except remember that you have to pay for the drying separately because the dryer of the wash never really works properly. There is a 1 minute timer for the dryer and it NEVER dries my car properly , this has happened probably 7th time now. Maybe it’s my fault but every time I have to pay extra money to manually dry my car. The owner says water is spotless so it shouldn’t matter that much, sure, but it is still job undone. Other than that I love this car wash, but hate it for the dryer and extra money I have to pay every single time.

So I wanted to try a touch-less car wash to see how well they do compared to others. This location isn't bad, the entrance is on the "one way" Florida side on the corner of MLK. They have a few "wash yourself" bays and two automatic touch-less bays with the vacuums along the side. Now I read the reviews and looked up the pros/cons of all types of car washes, yeah I'm that kind of person, besides I just got this car not too long ago and want the clearcoat/paint to last. So for the price, $16 for the ultimate and about 8-10min in the bay, it did okay. Now the car wasn't too dirty in my opinion. It had mainly pollen and a couple bird strikes on the window, damn crows. The high pressure water and soap took care of the bird droppings, but it had trouble removing the pollen on the back half the car. The blowing/drying part also made water spots from the middle to the back of the car and I even went through slowly as to clear the water from the vehicle. The wheel cleaner seemed to work pretty good, it cleaned up the brake dust and road grime from the wheel spokes and brake calipers, if you care about that stuff. So for the money and if your car isn't caked in dirt, it does a pretty decent job, maybe for in-between thorough hand washings.

Update: Took my other vehicle to this location to get washed, again not too dirty, mainly pollen and bird droppings. Again it did okay, this time I chose the mid level wash and saved a couple bucks since the Ultimate didn't fully clean the first car. So after the wash, the vehicle was cleaner and really shiny, except the roof, still was hazy and the water rinse left swirl marks all on the bottom plastic trim like the infinity sign. I believe it's the tire/wheel spin rinse, hense the swirls. Sucks because the marks don't come off by just wiping it. I'm going to need a rag/sponge and cleanser to remove the swirls.

Amazing carwash ! It's just really long so if the wait is more than 3 cars deep and you're in a crunch.... I wouldn't recommend.

I've used this place with all of my cars. PPF and Tint approved 😅

After I spent four dollars in quarters I was washing, scrubbing and soap was all over my car. Then the machine timed out and I very well couldn’t leave with soap all over my car so I had to use my credit card to rinse all the soap off my car. I tapped my car and washed the soap off and when I look at my receipt, I paid $10 for that so $14 to hand wash my own car. No number to call to complain about being overcharged.

Very poor soap quality. If you go through the tunnel wash and the car isn’t very dirty, it still comes out covered in streaks. It also does a very poor job cleaning the wheels and wheel arches. The dryer only runs for one minute, which is not enough for an SUV, so you have to go through again just to properly clean the wheels.

The vacuum has a very неудобная attachment — you can’t properly vacuum between the seats.

Also, there’s nowhere to wash a towel or your hands. Usually there should be a sink available.
