I finally went for my first carwash today at Petro Canada and I purchased “The Works” which includes Winterwash that removes salt, road grime, sand and it includes teflon clear coat protector and rust inhibitor protection as well 🙂 it was $9.99 if you buy gas there and I must say that i was pretty happy with the wash, my car looks so clean now 🙂 Anyways, i was just wondering if there are any other good places that you guys go to get your car washed? ---

Fine Details, Markham. Basic wash goes for about $10 but it beats going through an automated. ---

It’s really good man. I don’t have a driveway to wash my car in so I use that place on the weekend’s when were home and when we stay at my Mom’s house, I’ll use the one in Scarborough. ---

The best car wash place is the one on my driveway! Yes it’s time consuming and it takes more effort etc. but it’s worth it! I get all the chemicals I need from the detailers at work so that saves me a little money. The odd time if Im in a rush I will take it to a do it your self place but never - ever would I take my car through a car wash place no way! Not only because my car is too low but those places usually do more harm then good to your paint. ---

I got to the sunoco car wash (since I’m crap at hand washing, no matter how much I try). It’s better than Petro Canada’s car wash (I felt my parent’s minivan cry. I think it’s rougher than Sunoco). Does that make me a bad person? 😢 ---
