Carwash on Long Island
Hey guys, I got my Z in March and I've been washing the car in my driveway but now the temperatures have dropped and I can't use the hose anymore. I've never taken my car to a carwash...so...can anybody recommend a good carwash? Also, can anybody recommend a good detail shop? Thank You!

I live in Sayville and use the Bluepoint Carwash (totally Handwash) on Montauk Hwy. It is just East of Nichols Road and near the Burger King. They are great and it is totally handwash. They have other locations I believe in Westbury (Nassau) and also in South Hampton or Hampton Bays?(Suffolk)

5 CORNERS Carwash in NEW HYDE PARK.

Used to live on LI and that was the only place id go to for a wash. 100% touchless as men in fishing gear wash your car down using sponges and soapy water. HIGH end cars go there regulary so you know it must be a good place.

Hook up a hot/cold water line to your outside faucet and wash it yourself. it's the ONLY way to ensure nobody is going to screw up your paint.
Wear some rubber gloves and lots of soap to get the salt and grime off.
The paint is hard enough to maintain, let alone allowing some $3 hr illegal touch the car.
I seen what car washes do to nice rims and they will not take responsibility for any damage.

Yes they do a hand wash using sponge mits that they dip in large sudsy water barrels. You have to remember, theres no substitute for washing your car yourself. But, compared to the majority of the other car washes that use those spinning brushes and long spagehetti sponges, it A LOT better and less damaging.
