This video holds very little truth... I have been detailing cars for 11 years and have been operating express exterior automatic car washes for the past 3 years. And I assure you that using a professional car wash is safer than using the human hand. I will explain why. While yes. There are automatic car washes that hold true to what you speak of in the video. However nearly all of the bad car washes are located behind gas stations or at full service car washes (when people drive your car into the car wash). It comes down to doing your research and finding the right one. A professional car wash should only use a brush material called neoglide (similar to the foam on a wet suit). This foam brush material does not hold dirt nor water and while scrubbing the vehicle there is low ph clear coat safe detergent and water are sprayed into the brush to keep it well lubricated and to keep the brush flushed out and ready for the next car. You also have to imagine that the brush is spinning. Anything that could even get stuck into the brush is going to fling off of the brush because it is rotating. Additionally HF acid is never ever used in a soft touch car wash. HF acid is required in touchless car washes because otherwise cars would not come out clean via there is no agitation. About damage from the rails on the track, this goes back to finding the correct car wash. We have washed over 1 million cars at one of our car wash locations and not once had a claim via damage from the conveyor. If the track were to be damaged and unmaintained your brining your car to the wrong wash. Also you have to remember that your car most likely went through a automatic car wash at the dealership before you even owned the car. In conclusion, I am considering making a video of our car wash in action explaining how washing your car at a professional automatic car wash is much safer for your vehicle.

[@HalfBreedMix]

[@blueshirt06]

I don't operate any car wash but I have been taking my many cars to car washes for 22 years and I have never been impressed with automatic express car washes, the best washes I have ever had have been 100% hand car wash

[@svenschwingel8632]

Well if you run an honest, customer-oriented detailing business, that's great and applaudable. But that can't distract from the fact that there are many black sheep among the people that operate automatic car washes who prefer quick profit over maintaining their car wash. And even as a detailing enthusiast or a gearhead, you won't always be able to look "behind the curtains".

[@DONOTCLICKMYPAGE]

Totally agree. Washing by hand is great but never as consistent as a tunnel wash. With the proper equipment and handling of the vehicle it'll come out super clean. Even if the plastic guard were to be damaged and needed to be replaced it's not an expensive piece. Low ph presoak and quality waxes is the key

[@svenschwingel8632]

Sorry, but the only consistent feature of automated washers is that they constantly miss out complex parts of your vehicle, like the areas between mirrors and side windows, mirror glasses themselves, edges of the rear hatch and so forth. It always requires manual work afterwards. And don't even get me started on the poor jobs automated washers do on wheels. Granted, if you wash by hand, you need to have the proper tools and focus on what you are doing. But if you do that, there is no way in hell an automated washer will make your vehicle cleaner.

[@killer809829]

i am a supervisor at a converyer type carwash that has the curtains that you mention and i am not going to come here and say that your list is wrong because its not but atleast in the carwash that i work we have certain things to deal with some of the more known issues.. this carwash is pretty well kept so things like our wheel rails for the chain has 2 inch heavy duty plastic in both sides and are about 3 inches of height before we send a car through the was we have 2 guys pressure wash the car with 2 jet guns that shoots soapy water to remove debris from the car so it doesnt get stuck on the curtains and damage the paint, we also have special broom brushes to brush the car lightly if its really bad but off-road trucks that are covered in mud are a pain in the ass and hold the line alot because we cant send it with mud... after the carwash we have people to hand dry every single car with micro-cloth towels but human error is always there shit happens the machine can rip out bumpers if it has a gap and the curtain gets stuck there if he see possible issues with bumpers we use painter's tape to tape the gaps to avoid shit from ripping off but it happens sometimes also state plates can get taken off (front ones) or bent and as a final thought wash it yourself at home or at a DIY place like i do cus honestly shit happens although we have close to a 5 star rating carwashes tend to leave swirls and shit from the curtains if you dont keep car waxed regularly and keep in mind its a business that needs to work quickly so your car can be done wrong or not good enough and you might get mad :/ i've seen too much in this industry but then again most people dont car too much about their cars they just want the dust off and vacuumed.

[@thecarwashesandmorechannel2892]

1:50 That's actually wrong, Mitter Curtains have existed shortly after brushes. Brushes were simply loud because they used to use filament, basically a super loose version of a broom. Filament would get frayed, and leave swirl marks. Washes nowaday tend not to use filament, and it is rare to find a filament wash. They now either have Soft Cloth, or, most commonly, Closed-Cell Foam brushes, and the mitter curtains are soft cloth. They can't damage anything, no matter how poor the car wash is maintained.

[@lojosol]

Number 1 way debunked: The mitters are interchangeable, so when they begin to degrade in quality they can be easily changed at low cost to the car wash owner. Also, many express tunnel car washes prohibit cars with heavily muddied up vehicles or trucks with their beds with debris from using the car wash until they have been cleared. Number 3 debunked: Newer express tunnel Car washes dont use a chain driven conveyor system. They use a flat conveyor belt system that your tires sit on. Number 4 Debunked: I haven't seen any car washes in the United States that doesn't spray a car with a final rinse of filtered water, better known as spot-free rinse.

[@brandonyoung181]

This guy raises some valid points but he has a skewed vision of all washes. I manage a successful wash and none of the mentioned issues he stated are a reality in my area. There are many things we do as operators to mitigate damage on vehicles. Odds are the "jolt" he felt was the tire shine bumpers coming out and straightening his wheels as he went by while they applied the product, then he got out and noticed damage to the wheels. My wash has cameras before the vehicle even gets on the track as well as right after the wash. 9/10 times when customers come back saying " I know for a fact your wash damaged my vehicle, I felt it jolt around" I find the exact damage they are talking about before the vehicle even entered my wash. People come to the car wash to get their car clean, and then after the wash they get out and see how well it did and now they see all these things that were hidden under the dirt. Judging by the fact this guy drives a BMW, his wheels were probably covered in so much brake dust he didn't even remember what color the wheels were until after the wash and he inspected it. Not saying we never damage vehicles, but I've lost count on how many people come to me and point out a single scratch on the car saying we did it. Do you really think out of all the vehicles we wash per day it chose yours to scratch, and not only your car but a single scratch on the car? Washes are automated things, they do the same thing day in and out and if we are going to scratch your car it would be a repeated scratch down the entire side of the vehicle, not a single random scratch.

One good reason of automated car washes is if you live in the northeast during winter months it washes all the salt off from underneath the car

[@97I30T]

I used to work at a full service car wash in college. It's a shitty job and we cut corners sometimes. Car washes are fine every once in awhile but not all the time. We had a guy who was a regular there and got his black Nissan Maxima washed 4-5 times a week. It was a really nice Maxima but I watched the clearcoat deteriorate over the 9 months I was working there to the point that it was peeling off on the corners of a lot of the body panels. My point is, car washes are fine every once awhile, just don't wash your car at a car wash all the time. If you want it done the right way do it yourself. If I'm totally honest though most people won't even ever notice the scratches car washes can cause. Especially on lighter colored vehicles.

[@michaelmiller7928]

You misrepresent car washes' abilities and what we do. We are always accruing money for the expenses we do not like paying because we know that customer satisfaction is priority, and that rival businesses in the area do not rise each other. It's less money than a lawsuit. And as for that hydrofluoric acid, I don't know about the others but we make our own chemicals that are a substitute, and it works damn well. For the past few weeks I have begun to like this channel less and less. Not that one person's disliking of you will bother you at all.

[@tubros]

Being Swede some things may differ, but car washes circulate the same water, what goes in the drain is filtered and used again and again. These filters are very expensive but not changing them will couse the wash to spray cars with dirty debris filled water, then rub the debris into the paint. Must washes switched to wash rolls using fabric that will not thear or collect debris when I worked in them 15 years ago, but if the filters are bad that do not mather. Also washing the car in the drive way is illegal in the EU. When washing a car you must collect all waste water and dispose as environmental hazardous waste. Most people do not know how to hand wash a car, they will do damage to the paint when washing them at home, better to take the car to a pro or get the know how first. Good Video! But $5-10 for a wash? its starting at $15-30 over here. =/ Filters and wast disposal fees I guess.

[@ronniebertka5227]

This guy is really wild. A lot of what he says may apply to the old school car wash owners/operators but this is simply not the case with modern washes or operators. Car washes are proven to be safe for washing your car. Yes there are operators who dont maint. their equipment.This could/will cause issues. There are fast food joints that dont clean their equipment and make people sick. You dont stop going out to eat??? What happened is this guy had a bad experience and feels justified in making a video. I know operators around the country who wash hundreds of thousands of cars a year and have few damages. You dont stop driving on the road because your car could get a flat from nails in the road. Its like anything in life, its a chance. Highly unlikely that you will ever have an issue but in the case that you do, its all in how its handled.

You are going to the wrong automated car wash. The Mercedes and Porsche dealerships I Go to in Orange County California ALL use automated car wash tunnels. If it’s good enough for a dealership to run brand new cars through it should be good enough to run a used car through. The problem with a Hand washes are that they don’t often allow enough drip time to lift the dirt off the finish of your car. They immediately start scrubbing causing swirl marks. A properly maintained express wash will be more consistent and allow properly drip time. Granted you many need to do a little drying yourself but you have to do the same after driving home from a hand wash. Also, an express wash only take 2-3 min and costs 1/3 of a full service wash. The Lamborghini factory uses and automated wash on their cars once they come off the assembly line. Granted their wash is calibrated for their cars but it serves as further proof that automated car washes are great for most cars.

I used name brand car washing materials. My cars looked a bit nicer then; but the paint itself did not last any longer than the neglected cars I have come across with family and friends.

[@PeninsulaOfThrills]

when the brushes spin the rock really won't have a chance on staying on the brushes some carwashes have great cloths that make it harder for a rock to even enter onto the brushes. Tommy car washes have a conveyor that you don't even have a funnel to get on. to move it through they use small lines of soft things move it through easier. and the conveyor doesn't go up from the ground at all making sure it doesn't squeeze your wheels in the conveyor. sometime car washes don't have handpreps but I'm just saying. all you gotta do is go to a car wash that looks well maintained.

[@jorgenvonstrangle000]

I work at an autobell (express car wash) and some of the things in this video is false according To the one I work at. We will replace our curtain washers or will pressure wash them. The people making mistakes is true but most people don't realize is you are paying for a express wash we pride ourselves on getting you off the lot in 15 min and some people forget what they are paying for we wash cars not set them back as if they just rolled out of the factory. Not saying we don't do a good job but there could be a new guy who does your car and not get it to car enthusiast standard. All in all if you care that much about your car just wash it yourself or take it to a detail shop if either way your options are cheap fast food quality or expensive top quality or yourself and your standards.

Thank you for clarifying harmful chemicals in car washes!!

I personally hand wash both my vehicles being I could not see labels of the chemicals being used.

[@Visionery1]

Quite honestly, these days one gets fantastic automatic car washes, the days of bristled car washes damaging your paint or contacting the car are long over. Washing the car yourself using a 10l bucket of water is probably worse than using a car wash which continuously sprays the car with water to flush away grime, sand etc., unless you change the water in your bucket - and your cloth - after every panel. Water spots are also no longer an issue with modern automatic car washes blowing the car dry and then gently brushing away remaining droplets. Most owners of automatic car washes will not spend "millions of dollars" on high-tech car wash equipment and then run the system until it basically self-destructs, it's just not going to happen.

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

New kind of car wash that uses people to wash your car. You do use a conveyor. However, soap, water, and wax are blown on the car. Humans then inside the car wash wipe the car with clean wool mitts. This happens after the soap and water, and then again after the wax. The rinse is a shower from the ceiling, and the drying is again by humans. Mostly it works with less damage to the car - but it does cost more - a simple wash, no wax, is $22.

My family owns about 73 gas stations most car regular car washes. An a car guy our newest locaiton which is being built is having a car wash but not your average one. We;ll be hand washing every car. Which means no damage, scratches, a perfect exterior clean and interior (costs extra). We also are going to have a detail shop. For exotics and things other car people like. Microfiber towels also. Yes it going to cost us extra for the people and this like that but, its worth it and for our customers.

[@ourfutureisdark]

I use the Self wash car washes like he mentioned, only problem with those are the time limits, i once got too into it that i forgot i was being timed and it ran out on me and i ran out of change, leaving my car all soapy.

[@HalfBreedMix]

............and the random weirdos and thugz that patrol booth washes.

[@ourfutureisdark]

HalfBreedMix very agreeable

[@kevmack101]

What about glide car washes are they good ???

[@Jacksirrom]

A few years ago, I worked at a very modern automated car wash over the summer. The issues you listed really are the truth. If your car is damaged in any way, I can only wish you serious luck and perseverance to have the wash cover the damages. We had a very high quality camera system blanketing every angle of the entrance to prove whether or not the damage was caused by the wash or existed prior. Also, I would add that another major hazard at these automated washes - particularly when busy - is other drivers. There are real morons out there not paying attention when they're lining up on to the conveyor. Or there are people who for some reason decide to floor it in the middle of the washing sequence and crash into other cars. It was a fun job but crazy shit happened. There were people who took their fancy Porsche or whatever every single day. The cloth wipers were hardly ever thoroughly washed and I'm sure they were wearing down their clear coat very quickly. Also, for the love of jeezlus christ himself, remove your antenna and fold in your side mirrors if possible. Also, the mark of a better than average automated wash is if they tape down your wipers with painters tape. The two most common problems were wipers and antennas being bent, damaged, or plain ripped off the vehicle.

[@thecarwashelevatorfanatic7433]

SOFT TOUCH WASHES DO NOT SCRATCH CARS!!!!!! YOU GOT YOUR FACTS ALL WRONG!!!!! HAND WASHES SCRATCH CARS!! NOT SOFT TOUCH WASHES.

[@Alex.AL_26]

Don't wash your car at home if you have hard water, It will create spots everywhere!

[@LewibooitheWaffle]

Alex A not necassarily. it depends if you know what you are doing. as long as you dry it thoroughly with a decent cloth and dont let the water air dry, you should be fine. even if you do get spots then you could always polish them out

[@jimmyb1460]

You only get permanent water marks if you let hard water dry on the paint, and don't remove it for a long time.

[@cdbtheclaw]

The bad thing for me is that it actually is illegal in the region where I live in Germany to clean your car at home to stop chemicals and oil getting into the ground. I actually was fined 150€ when I did wash my car at home and argued with the police officer that my driveway has a concrete tub underneath it so all the waste goes directly into the sewer. The next possible diy hand wash place is over 70km away and yeah I love my car but I don't have the money to always drive 140km just to clean my car or to pay the police every time. So it is automated car wash for me...

[@Randomeris1]

Best way of washing your car is by hand no doubt, but it fucking sucks that in winter it gets problematic...

[@Officialjohnnyrose]

And when the guard wears ... and when the guards wears .... And when the guard wears.....When The Guard Wears.....@4.39

[@noncustody]

Like ten years ago I took my car to a car wash and they didn't have anyone catch my car after it went through the wash bay. So my car rolls out of the wash bay and into a tree. I get nervous every single time there is no attendant standing near the wash bay.

[@M.TTT.]

Kenji lmao that's ridiculous. I think I'd stand and just say wtf

[@HalfBreedMix]

Holysh!t !! Hope you sued their a$$es.

[@noncustody]

HalfBreedMix No I didn't sue, my car had very little cosmetic damage but my drives door never quite closed the same. The door hinges were a little misaligned.

[@kevper96]

Kenji you can't sue if the damages were small?

[@HalfBreedMix]

kevin p You can, but the question is "will it be worth it"; lawyers aren't cheap.

[@BandXTube]

So what I can get from this video is...if you go to a shitty carwash it'll potentially fuck up your car. If you go to a good carwash you'll be fine. Cool. Who would've fucking guessed

[@elferraz2854]

what about in the winter my friend????

[@xDoyle514]

numero 1 self serve car washes. Cheap power washers that shoot out soap and wax

[@stephenp7533]

If you are as picky and anal as this guy you don't drive a car that needs to look spotless in the winter. But for a daily driver you usually get a thaw about once a month and in a daily driver you don't care if you take through a car wash.

[@wheelfan100]

Stephen P I would never buy a used a car from you

[@johnb1873]

numero 1 lol.

[@abstracts2004]

I would add that you don't want to hand dry your car after a touch-less car wash because of the sediment left on the car that the wash left behind. Also don't use touch-less car washes when its very cold out because the water will freeze the rubber seals around your doors possibly causing damage and the water will freeze inside of your door locks possible causing damage to those as well.

[@JoeFpoc]

i been driving 20 years and never took my car through a auto wash place. its not that hard to wash your car yourself

[@LegendInThaMakin]

JOE FPOC U dont live in a climate with snow. That's why. You're not going to go out and wash your car when its -45 degrees Celsius.

[@JoeFpoc]

LegendInThaMakin i live near chicago.i guess i should have said more details. i have usually worked at places that have had wash bays to wash your car. but my new job doesnt, i just dont wash it during the winter unless we have like a 45 degree day

[@LegendInThaMakin]

JOE FPOC Lucky u, i dont have a job that has some wash bays available to me. Just saying, out here in Canada, there are days in the year where it's damn near inhumane to go out and wash your car yourself.

[@JoeFpoc]

FishFind3000 yeah everything out here is a mess. my last 80s truck i bought from down south. but 5 years up here and its starting to get rough

[@andyvega31105]

Hi Parker! I'm a big fan!!!

[@АлександрВадим-й9щ]

When I was in my early teens I was obsessed with scratching my rectum. I eventually figured out that if I leave a thin layer of shit on my anus and let it dry over night I would be more itchy and I would have a fun surprise that I could peal off my butt hole in the morning. I cannot describe how wonderful the feeling of pulling off that thin simi transparent sheet was. After pulling it off I would smell it and then toss it under my sink. After a week or so the smell was too much for me to handle. So I began to spray febreze down there every once in a while. This went on up until I started growing hair down there. I stopped for a while because I would end up pulling hair with my shit. In the mean time, I would toss my finger and toe nails along with my heel skin and occasionally, my sun burn skin (what a treat that was) under the sink.

[@SUPERSTAR10008]

[@DannyZabolotny]

If you live in an apartment or can't wash your car at your house for some reason, the coin-operated washes are a great alternative. They give you water, good lighting (for night washing), a relatively clean work area, and aren't terribly expensive. What I've done before is go to a coin-op wash with my own buckets, soap, and wash mitt. That way you don't have to use the nasty brushes that are at the wash, but you still get the benefits of the filtered water and pressure washer.

[@DashcamGeorgia]

Awesome video! Yeah, but bottom line, if you want it done correctly, wash the car yourself. If you're in a hurry, don't wash it; wait until you have time to do it correctly. Also, good advice in this video about using microfiber towels for drying. I only recently started using them and they DO MAKE a HUGE DIFFERENCE!

[@davidpatterson6589]

Griot's Garage makes an amazing terry weave MF drying towel that is unbelievable. tossed the towel on the hood and pulled down on the corners with just the weight of the towel and it was bone dry in one pass. you can find them on autogeek and think theyre still on backorder

[@DashcamGeorgia]

I'll probably try that after my "Guzzlers" wear out (also purchased from autogeek). I have the Griot's Garage buffers (small and large); haven't used them yet, though. Looking for a good clay bar solution before buffing the MINI.

[@TwizztidAngel]

There is a warm filtered air drying device you can get now. I want one of those. They clear out all the nooks and crannies around door handles, mirrors, lights and other items.

[@man_on_wheelz]

Lived in an apartment my whole life. I remember the days when my mom would go down to the parking lot, fill a bucket with water from the laundry room, suds up, and wash the car by hand in the underground parking garage. Now I just take my car to a self-serve high-pressure washing station. But trust and believe when I get a house with an outdoor hose and a driveway I will be washing it by hand every single time.

One simple solution. If you don't have access to a hose and can't do the washing where you live don't buy an expensive car.

Sadly in the winter in the NE it's either car wash or rust from the built up salt. I'll take the car wash....

[@jaredimboden1830]

One time going through an automated car was in my car which is really low, and the lady told me I was clear to get over the rails to pull my car. Well she was wrong and the bottom of my bumper scraped and practically tore off when I had to back out. I demanded Payment for the damage my car took but the lady was like "no no it your fault." Fucking pricks.

[@leovomend8789]

sort of your fault still tho, like yeah she said you cleared but still.

[@jaredimboden1830]

LeoVomend So it's my fault for trusting someone whose job is to make sure stuff like that DOESN'T happen? Alright.

[@leovomend8789]

Jared Imboden no ones job is making sure a low car clears into the car wash. your dumb ass took the car there, if you worried it wouldnt clear you shouldve checked yourself. so yeah, your fault

[@jaredimboden1830]

LeoVomend Oh sorry didn't realize you worked at a car wash. And there's no way I could have checked my self unless I walked into the fucking wash. Didn't plan on doing that. The lady sees all kinds of cars coming through there every day, she should have known what a car that wouldn't clear the rail looked like. And no shit her job isn't literally just judging whether or not cars would work. All I'm saying is that she should have known. I mean she was most likely an illegal so she probably wasn't that smart to begin with anyway.

[@771shadowolf]

Jared Imboden you deserve it lolz

[@johnpekkala6941]

Wash your car at home is generally NOT a good idea, the reason being that oil and cleaning chemicals runs into the storm drains and right out untreated into lakes and waterways. A properly made car wash have a water treatment system wich removes oil, cleaning chemicals and other toxic stuff before the water is sent out. Much better for the environment.

[@icdmize]

Took my (new to me) 2005 Honda Accord through a "touchless" car wash a couple of days after I picked it out. Dropped $8 on the "premium" wash and after the wash my pinstripes are hanging off the sides of my car like for about 3 feet. I wish I had thought about asking them to fix it. It's a year down the road and my car still looks like shit with half the pinstripe missing and I haven't bothered to wash it since. I guess after that I just lost interest in keeping my car pretty. It'll likely be a few thousand bucks to fix where it removed all the wax during the wash and left water spots too. Maybe my next car will look nice. :(
