Default Freeeeee (4) quarter car wash !!!

Okay....I'm easy to thrill......

Pulled into the quarter car wash and noticed that the sprayer was a spray'n in its pipe holder.

I'm think'n GREAT I got someone else's time left. Turns out, that the machine was on PERMANANT ON !!!

Okay....start with the high pressure Wash, do the wheel wells, undercarriage, body, and every single nook and cranny. Follow with a High pressure rinse.....oh wait a minute....whats this tri-color protectant all about? Covered my car in this weird foam (what the hell is it? anyone know?)....then high pressure rinse again....Then low pressure NON-SPOTTING rince.

I even did the car wash bay floor.....so that dirt or soap wouldn't track-up when I exited.

Damn, I must have spent an hour in there.

Anyhow, to make a L O N G car wash story short, by the time I was done I think I did a pretty damn good job.

For a car freak, this was like hitting the jackpot.

MAN! If only I could be THAT lucky I've been spending about $10 a week washing my car @ my local "do it yourself" car wash and i hate it! I never have any quarters since they go for snacks at work and my $1's always seem to get donated to the single mothers at the strip clubs darn it! Just bought a hose to wash her down in my yard last night though The car i mean...

I remember you used to could make and buy RF and IR remotes that operated some of the newer digital systems that carwashes now use.

I have always wanted to open a self service car wash as a side business. If you do it in the right area i bet it would not take too long to start making money. I guess not as much if the sprayer stays on . . .
