Despise automatic carwashes, my wife's car and mine, hand wash only in my driveway. Had my wife's car 1 month and took it to a carwash near Garth Brooks and Lowe's on 10th. A brand new soft cloth carwash. The soft cloths grab the dirt from the previous vehicle and slap it and slide it across your paint. Yup, that is what happened to the hood of my wife's vehicle, an 18 inch scratch. With that said I buy good Wash and Wax, pull out the hose and wash by hand once or twice per week. At least 2 X per year I wax them. Both cars have a like new appearance.
