sorry... is this some kind of wind up?

if you don't give a damn about the value of your car and don't care about swirl marks and scratches on your car then by all means use the car wash...

i personally think you are opening yourself up to a complete flaming asking this question in a detailing section

no no no!!!! big no no, a sure way to damage your paint.

my advise would be to have a look at a car thats been detailed and washed the correct way and take a look at a car thats been wash by a machine thats cleaned thousands of cars with the same brushes that have grit and god knows what else lurking in them and you'll see difference :wink:
