Do you take your car thru the car wash? Brushless? How's the top holding up?

I have never done it and i never will do it. Cant be certain those things are going to get all the soap out of the top.

Good point

No, and the reason being is that I will do a better job doing washing it in my driveway than going through the car wash. Plus it would cost me $5 to go through the car wash. That is beer money.

I've never taken my car thru the wash, but I see people do it so I was questioning if it's common practice.

If you like your car, don't take it through an automoatic car wash.

The brushes are clogged with abrasive gravel (you didn't see the monster truck go through 5 minutes before you got there).

Brushless won't damage your car - but it won't clean it either.

I do not even take my truck through a car wash.

NEVER!!! I dont let anyone touch my car! I wash it myself. My truck I take through the car wash weekly. Its too much of a pain in the *** to get the step ladder out and wash it...

No..I took my car to the dealer for some service, I said do not wash it..do not wash it..do not wash it...yep they washed it and spent the next two days buff'n out the scratches and detail'n it. If you need the top cleaned check out the stickys.

I don't take it to a carwash either - I do it at home.

I have never taken any car I've owned through a car wash and I never will.

If I ever need a quick carwash it's touchfree or nothing.

I do take my TA through the hand held spray wash on occasion. It doesn't get it clean, but in the winter, it lets me keep it relatively clean and keep road grime sprayed out of the wheel wells, etc.

I avoid spraying the top, though. I clean it only by hand. If I spray it at the car wash, it's with rinse water only.

I have taken my vert once through the one that uses pressured water , lots of water came through the drivers side window ....that's the last time I go to one

I will never take it to a drive through, just wash it at home!! Or wash it at the car wash , but no drive through!! What do you use on your top,& how long have you used that product & are you happy with it?

i took my previous vert through the automatic carwashes because i didn't know better.
i think i might take this one through a brushless wash just because i hate cleaning the wheels.
i'll be sure to bring a towel.

i just took it for the first time to one last week and the pressure washer like lifted the convertible and got a lot of water inside. just wash it urself. take it to a self-service car wash ,, just use their water and bring ur own ****.

took it for the first time because the chicago salts get annoying on the undercarriage...


i got stuck halfway in the wash (side pipes were scraping on the rails) and had to use boards to get up and off .


never doing that again.

i take mine through the auto at times. the last time i had the radio on. yup you know what happened next doncha. i heard a clunk bang clunk bang. i saw the antena hanging like it had been murdered. i was pissed. i bought a new one off ebay. the new one is much much much more quiet than the factory and better reception. the paint is not in that good of shape maybe that's why i don't mind taking it to the auto. the top needs some tlc though. i need to make some time and take it some place that knows what they are doing. if i had the time i would wash it by hand since this is best...
