Anyone run their car through those automatic car washes?

I used to use them a lot and ended up with absolutlely hideous swirls. I would suggest not using them if you have a black car as swirls show much easier on black. The touchless ones are ok, but in my mind there is no sub for a good hand wash.

I've done it a few times in the touchless ones, but I get some water in through the t-top weatherstripping. I wouldn't let those clowns at the drive-thru touch my car though. They'll scratch it all up for you.
