I need to find a DIY car wash today, as close to Merrimac (off of Main) as possible. It’s right by UB South. I’m taking my summer car down there for storage, but I want to wash the salt off so it doesn’t sit there all winter. It’s an old convertible, so any automatic wash would get me wet, therefore I need a hand wash place. Thanks.

Beautiful! What place has heaters again? It’s damn cold out. It’s going to be a cold ride with no heater.

Putting a car away dry with salt on it, is better than cleanish and wet.

Problem is it will probably be salty and wet once I get there. I guess I’ll see what I drive through. Driving a yellow Beetle 'vert through the city today should turn some heads. Thanks for the car wash advice people.

It’s 25 degrees going down to 20 tonight. Unless you have an above freezing garage at home you’re asking for trouble.

On Merrimac yeah. The garage is $45 a month and it fits 2 cars, so I couldn’t say no. Neither car is worth that much money, and the garage has no windows and only one locked-up garage door. It’s be fine. Anyways, I lucked out and the roads were dry and clean, so i didn’t need the wash after all.
