Car Wash - recommended Spots

IMO there are tow types of washes; a cheap quick wash, or a good detailing job. Where do you guys wash your G at? Which spots to avoid?

Wish Id have that option, but I live in a complex. Burnt ish
I took mine to Speed wash in Mira Mesa. They did a very good job. They hand washed it (had to special request it tho. After i told him its the only way they will earn my business) plus wax. All around a pretty good result. The wax made all those lil scratched fade away. I'm sure they will be visible once the wax wears off.

Next time ill wax it myself after the wash tho. recommended brands?

Can't say as I do it myself at work detailing other cars. I wouldn't trust any car wash especially the drive through ones. I know how bad the one at work is and how the cloth strips are just dirt traps, I can't have that touch my car.

Hit up Grant (Gdup35Sedan) for a detail, he'll take care of you.

Sounds like a plan. I think he posted a few pics of his work and it looks really professional.
