Snowball 2010 Report post Posted April 30, 2010 Rather impressive 3rd period I gotta say. That was a heart stopper! Keeping on topic. I have one of those "Season Pass" car wash passes with Petro Canada which allows you to get 1 premium "touchless" or "cloth" car wash/day for 90 days. You also have access to the vacuum and carpet shampoo brush thing. Point being, I go through the car wash every day in the Winter (touchless and cloth 50/50) and have never had an issue with my antenna or any other part of the car for that matter. Nor do I have any scratches or bristles sticking out from anywhere. I think the modern day car washes are a lot more gentle on our cars... even the cloth ones. Hey Nick, some of us are lucky to have season passes. But I stay away from those car washes even if they have no contact or are very soft. You see it's not the cleaning part that I don't like, it's the mechanical system that guides your car through the car wash, were your tire is pulled and pushes by a conveyor system. I have had two bad experiences in those car washes. Once the roller bolt came off and got caught with my tire and scraped it, major headache and they refused to pay damages. The other time it actually damaged my rocker panel, major dent and scraped paint. Sorry never again. But for everyone else good luck and God bless.P.S. "GO HABS GO" tomorrow night in Pittsburgh. Can't wait to kick-ass to "CBC" ....... " Cry Baby Crosby" lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrMikeL Report post Posted October 19, 2010 About winter washing (which should be in a couple of weeks here in Minnes"snow"ta), I do the following: 1. Bucket of cold water with car wash soap2. I use a soft, safe car wash brush at the end of a telescoping wand to wash the entire car.3. I start at the top and work my way down, saving the last of the dirty water for the rocker panels & wheels.4. Then it's off the the touchless wash. Works wonders, even better than just the touchless wash without the pre-wash. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
