Downside of Drive-Thru Car Washing Locations
In the first part of of this article we covered the upside of having your car professionally hand washed. Now let’s discuss the downside of going through a drive-through car washing. They are definitely inexpensive and convenient, and for under $15, you get a car wash. How good? Well it depends on the customer’s definition of good.
Quickness – No machine or amount of brushes can replicate what hand car washing can do – not even the world’s longest drive through car washes. All the work is done on the exterior, none on the hard to reach areas, such as your rims, tires and wheel wells.
Scratches – If you don’t care about scratches, you might as well may stop reading now. The famous swirls and scratches that come from drive-thru car washes. If you look closely at your paint, particularly in the light, you will be able to see swirls and scratches. Often times these swirls and scratches come from improper washing techniques. Why does it matter? Because the more swirls and scratches you have in your paint, the less your car shines, the older it looks.
Here is a video that review Burlington’s biggest drive-through car wash. This video below gives a review of of the drive-through car wash, and if you listen right to the end (6:20 min), the customer believes that the more brushes there are, the better the wash – VERY WRONG!
Just look at the amount of brushes that rub against the car in this video. Talk about swirl and scratches heaven! And to finish it all off, no tire shine, no wheel cleaning and wheel wells are not scrubbed or cleaned. You really get what you pay for!
