The good news is there are some great waxes and/or sealants out there that require little work in application. What color car do you have?

I have never taken my new cars to a car wash with brushes after seeing what it did to my wife's black Rav 4 The fine hair line swirl marks it left cost us $$$ to have buffed out .The brushes pick up dirt, sand and other debris and slam it across the painted surface . I have hand washed my cars for twenty years ,but my wife takes her 06 sienna to a hand wash (cars) wash to get the full treatment and they do a great job . I prefer to wash my own and I don't miss anything, My way is the right way I always say.
