I visited it not too long ago, I'll have to review the video and decide if I go back and film again or upload the video.

@@carwashslayer4235 yeah it is interesting, but it’s a nice thing to offer. Both people from the automatic bays or self service bays can use it if they want, or they can use the handheld dryers located in the self service bays.

@@IllinoisCW I agree

This wash really didn't clean the car either. It just sprayed a bunch of chemicals and water on it. From what I know, the 4000 that used to be here also did not clean cars. They really need to get the chemicals straightened out there as they aren't working out.

@@Jpw824 to show the process of the wash as well as the equipment.

@@Danmandingo I have to agree, car washes are very relaxing.

@@Alex.AL_26I wasn’t even the only car who went through in the rain. It was just a light shower at the time and it wasn’t a big storm at all so it really wasn’t a big deal.

@@southwestcarwashes for sure!

@@LoneStarCarWashes-dc3er I really like Accutrac machines as well. You really can’t ever go wrong with one of them. The oscillating nozzle in the middle is Premier’s new drying nozzle! It’s very interesting for sure.

@@kingcarwashnfansdrivesetc8364 I do have to say that the new premier nozzle is pretty neat, it’s pretty interesting to say the least.

I do have to say they are really thorough, their wash was really nice and car came out clean. Even with the price the washes are, I’d have to say give it a try just to see and compare to other washes.

I visited a day after they opened, so they had a free wash promotion that I was able to take advantage of. Luckily I didn’t end up having to pay $30 for a car wash.

It was a really nice wash! Did not expect the airstream dryers to be gone but they have probably been here since the late 80s/early 90s when the wash opened.

The old sidekick dryers were working just fine so there was no point in getting rid of them, they were perfect for getting the side of the car dry.

The closest one I know of that would be decent is in Bartlett at Valvoline. There are touchless washes in Bloomingdale but have been ran down by the new owners.

I already have, you can find the video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnjWnJ6Hl7WInLcsi=jn9yPqT0dVqwu9lC

I believe the timing is off for when the top brush needs to drop

Free swirls for life!

I didn’t even notice that on my initial visit or take that into consideration, but I do have to agree they should have rinsed it out or saved scrubbing the wheels for when they are returning to get the prep guns, or even have a totally separate brush for the wheels to avoid cross contamination from the wheels and the cars paint.

I was surprised to find a Broadway tunnel, as usually they’re only installed at dealerships. I would agree that this is a sleeper hit, it does a great job cleaning up the car.

For the space that they were working with, they used a majority of it!

I was tired when doing this video so I might not have been thinking right at the time 😂

For sure!

Thanks for the comment! Appreciate you watching! :)

I have no connections with anyone at Tidal Wave, so I cannot do an outside view of the tunnel.

@@IllinoisCW you can always ask there’s no harm in doing that

@@TexasCarWashChannel626 Tidal Wave Auto Spa is very strict about who they let into the tunnel. I have no contact with anyone higher up in the company, so doing an outside view here is currently not possible for me to do.

@@IllinoisCW makes since

I am unsure why the top brush retracted on us. But it gave a great view of the applications at the end of the tunnel!

Hi

Interesting.

With how cold it gets up here we sure need propane heaters! Keeps you warm on the cold days.

This tunnel is for sure an older one, and has been through multiple owners before WashU owned it. WashU did clean up the place and made it look really nice though!

ok
