Did you leave a tip Kenny?

I wish there was a car wash like that around here. If there is, i haven't seen or heard of one. It sure would make it a helluva a lot easier on my back for someone else to do it. I washed my car Friday and my gluteus maximus is just now recovering.

We have a "Snappy Car Wash" but the car goes throw a brush wash while it's on rollers. Not a fan. So i have to wash my car myself and suffer the consequences later....

Do you have swirls on your vinyl, Kenny? I have hexis vinyl on my roof. I dried part of it with a waffle weave towel and I got a few swirls on it. From vinyl experts, I hear you never want to take a mitt and rub it in. A good vinyl can be cleaned with a delicate microfiber and glass cleaner . Also, a pressure wash prior to remove major debris.

I'm also wondering how well your vinyl is holding up. It looks like the guy isn't passing the mitt back and forth in straight lines, but that could be my OCD talking

All depends on the quality of the wrap you choose to use and my friend ordered me the strongest most durable one ( can't currently remember the type is was off the top of my head ) and it's holding up great so far with no swirls at all until the azz at the shop placed my box of spacers on my trunk so it got a few very light scratches but I let it go bc I've known them forever lol

And of course I tipped and asked for EXTRA tire shine! I usually detail it myself with microfiber towels but didn't have time and had a busy week ahead of me and had so much bird crap on the vinyl from parking under a tree for like 2 hours lol so I needed to get it cleaned off asap bc it's not good for it. I decided to go to the best rated hand car wash in the tri state area!
