Default (Hou)HandWash Carwash Locations

Does anyone know any good handwash car-washes that doesn't run your car through a machine,preferable in North/NW Houston? Don't wanna try the guy that has a set-up in an abandon gas station but machine washes suck as well.

Can't tell if we will actually have a winter this winter . I rather wash my car myself but if it turns cold enough to the point where it hurts to wash my car, I would rather go to a place and pay someone else to suffer through the pain lol

I seen an advertisement of a place called "Da Shop". Just seeing if there are places people would recommend to go to

I have a guy that comes to you for all your detail needs. He works directly with Tomball Dodge (#1 Viper dealer in USA) for their Vipers. He prepped my Z for my HRE Photoshoot. Let me know if you're interested. Completely waterless too!

Instead of paying someone to wash your car when it's too cold, go waterless:

Waterless Spray-On Car Wash - Cleaners - Car Washing - Car Care - Griot's Garage

Used it during the drought and water restrictions last year and LOVE this stuff! It's actually faster than handwashing with water when you factor in dragging out a hose, soap bucket, and drying the car.

No one has an excuse not to wash their own car now. Highly recommended!

When its cold just fill your buckets with hot water, it is orgasmic when its 40 out.

I usually wash my car every 2 weeks. so if it rained the day before, I will use quik detailer or quik wax to get the rain stains off the car. Also between the 2 weeks I dont wash the car,I will use either or but I will say I usually grab the detailer before I grab the quik wax.

I usually will use the quick wax within the 2 weeks after I've wax my car...After those 2 weeks go by, I use the detailer until I wax my car again

Also to direct answer your question, light dust dirty or rain stain dirty..anything dirtier than that will get a car wash
