I don't use touchless car washes on any of my cars. for anyone that has seen or been to those kind of car washes will know that it uses harsh chemical to basically "melt" any dirt off the car first. on a touchless car washes they will spray the chemical and let it sit there for several rounds before it finally sprays it off. after multiple uses of this kind of car wash you will notice etching in the clear coat. Bad bad bad

I see really nice cars going through car washes too. They also have swirl marks all over the paint. Most people don't care or don't notice paint imperfections on that small of a level. Even rich folks!

But I wash my car myself now, it is sort of like one of those work/fun things. It's almost like a hobby seeing how clean I can keep it. At this point, I don't even know where a good car wash near my house is. There is one on the corner that seems legit, but I have never even given it a thought.
