Dallas/Plano Car wash recommendation needed!

Okay, I know most of you are going to tell me to buy the products and spend the time to wash it myself, but I live in an apartment complex and it's not going to happen. Sooo, any recommendations? Perhaps a good hand-washing place in the area?

And yes, I've read the threads that make it seem like anything but a four hour driveway wash will turn your car into a putrid rusty mess, but I'm pretty sure some car wash out there knows what it is doing. So if you have any idea, please, please let me know!

Well,I used to take my Envoy to royal car wash in Mesquite . They did a nice job,my truck already had swirl marks galore( I bought it used ) so I cannot say if they made any more.The truck however was nice and clean when they were done with it. It is right across from Town East Mall , on Town East Blvd .

I heard something about a car wash at Forest and 635 that is supposed to do a nice hand wash. Perhaps I'll try there.

Forest Car Wash at Forest Lane and the Tollway is excellent. Hand wash and a great detail shop. $21.00 for "the works". $40.00 with a wax/detail and the GM at the detail shop loves nice cars and really takes care of things.

Just took it to the Forest Car Wash. Washed and waxed and it looks to me like they did a great job. And you were right, that guy loves to talk about cars!

I just take mine to my dealership in Frisco and they wash it for free. They have a touch-less carwash.

Glad I could assist. Just remind them that the guy with the white Camaro sent you. Mine will see them towards the end of this coming week.
