fun afternoon with ranger
yesterday i got my truck washed all nice for my graduation. i spent 20 and got basically a full detail in and out with tire shine and a hand sprayed wax. it thunderstormed like crazy last night and the car wash had a 72 hour warranty. i went today and got it washed again for free and i decided to try a claybar. its amazing.
only pic i have so far. ill get more tommorow, it got too dark.
yes i did take a pic of the "workers" pre washing my truck for the wash. thats the best car wash ive ever seen or heard of.

I would never take mine to something with brushes. Bye bye antenna. I've only taken mine to a car wash once, I normally do it myself.

i go to this car one carwash and guess what its my driveway i dont let any one touch my truck the only carwash i went to was one of those touchless ones and it did a crappy job so ive never gone to one since
if youve never used a claybar just do it you will def see a difference
i did it on my 01 ranger and saw some improvement then did it on my dads 93 acura and it made a huge difference

i wax it my self and i clay bared it my self. its kinda a 50 50 if i wash it or if they do. they do such a good job, and i get 10 % off, so its so easy to just go there. normally i spend 10$ and they do the outside, vaccum inside, wipe dash clean my rims and wash all the inside windows. they even use special stuff if you have aftermarket tint.

they take responsibility there as long as its factory. if i added an antenna and it broke im sol. if they rape my paint job they take liability , they have a sign.

They pre wash the cars cause the spinning brushes and curtain brush things don't really do anything. Me and my brother both worked at a car wash just like the one in the video. My brother still works for the same company as a manager. The horror stories I could tell you all about that place. Cars being run through too close together(even worse when its busy) Cars jumping the track. Mirrors, moldings, running boards being torn off. The spinning brush only being properly cleaned twice a year at most.
The drying towels are usually left a little damp so that if they see a spot not properly cleaned they can just wipe it off so that they dont have to send it through again. the towels are only used once and then washed But they are just washed in water no soap. You dont want to know what happens in the express detailing bays......
