Intersting video!

Been using Shell no-contact car wash for 2 years, very safe, however they never give me nice clean.

This winter i decided to use Petro-Canada soft cloth car warsh, it's much cleaner but sometime they leave some scratch mark (probably some rocks left from the previous dirty car). I have to use wax to take it out.

Cleaning your car by yourself is safer but who has time to clean in Canadian cold winter lol

Thx for sharing the video!

Wow, I can see a touchless wash being ok but not the ones with the brushes like that. I personally hand wash most of the time. Living in Ohio can bring some brutal weather though, so sometimes I opt for the touchless wash.
