The touchless car washes contain an alkaline soap which is about 14(the highest) on the ph scale(design to SOFTEN and remove dirt) . This will clearly DULL your finish in time .Think about it If you take some high ph solution and put it on your skin(which will soften it ) than take a JET powered spray to it , it would probably remove your skin. Yes I know no one would do this but just think of what it`s doing to your finsh!
I can always tell a CARWASH car from a HANDWASHED car. Do yourself a favor and hand wash you car..
ONE OTHER THING - do you think for a moment when those guys are drying your car that they care if the rag there using has went from you rims to your paint!Good Luck!!

PS , the last car wash I went to (about hmmmm 15 yrs ago) they sprayed the solution on my rims before they sent it through, and when my car came out the other side , my beautiful steel colored rims came out WHITE and OXIDIZED!! They were ruined from that day on. Ofcourse they had no plan on fixing them..
