Here's my 2 cents on touchless car washes

they use harsh chemicals that strip protection
they use recycled water so it's not always clean
there is a layer of dirt left

if they don't clean and you can't apply wax on it afterwards, what's the point?

they strip protection to leave your paint bare and they use dirty water on your car which probably makes swirls...

Way too many harsh chemicals in touchless car washes. Terrible for any protection previously applied. It'll strip most, if not everything off. Also, there's a chance it may discolor parts such as plastics, vinyl, wheels, etc. I would never bring my car to any car wash, touchless or hand.
