AZ touchless/brushless wash?

Looking for any touchless/brushless car washes on the west side, Surprise area.

I see this one here, kind of out of the way for me, but it's the closest. Anybody used it?

There is only one in the Fort Worth area and it is broke over 50% of the time. New Scratch-a-Matics all over this rubble.

yeah, that's how I found the address of the one I posted. Do these actually work pretty decent though?

I’ve never taken the M through the automatic. Only my truck and my Kona. I use the self service bay to get the majority of the grime off and then finish the hand wash at home.

Just hand wash it at your home and save $20 bucks. When I had my autobiography Land Rover you didn’t want to just drive through a cheap car wash. One, it scratches your paint and will mess up your protective wrap not to mention break off your rear spoiler/light which is a $5000 OEM part.

I've got all the detailing shit already, just not time...........and sometimes motivation lol

Just looking for a touchless/brushless option that'll get the layer of dust off when I don't have time to wash by hand

I don't know if there's any near you, but in Tucson we have AUTO WASH EXPRESS and some of them offer touchless.

I've used the one on Ina and it's actually REALLY good, and true touchless (make sure you don't get the highest tier, as that one does include brushes). I made it my mission to try out different locations.

For $9 / 3 minutes it does a better job than I do washing my car which takes me more than 1 hour, and at least the same amount of money when going to the self service bays [I genuinely dislike washing cars and I will admit I'm not good at it]

The wheels come out 'decent'. Next time, I'll try spraying wheel cleaner before driving thru.
