Can anyone comment, are these touch free car wash safe, with the soap they use?. I was wondering whether they use stuff that actually take your wax off your car? I reffer to the regula rwash and not a fancy shmancy with triple wax and stuff like that, simply a car wash... Thanks.

It shouldn't damage the Zaino; you need a solvent like alcohol to strip Zaino. I avoid them, though. I have heard that high-pressure washes like that can actually drive dirt particles into the paint.

Think about this: you could do more damage doing a hurried wash with a dirty rag.

It's all a matter of degrees, really. You can certainly get away with using those car washes. It's probably better than leaving the car dirty. Over the long-term, though, your finish will probably not look quite as nice as if you had lovingly washed it with Z7 every time. It would help a lot to occasionally give it a good, thorough hand-washing, cleaning all those spots the car washes just don't get clean, and you should probably claybar it a little more often.

FWIW
