What's a good car wash place in Pomona?

Demon4545 · 10-03-04, 12:09 AM

After a 300 mile drive to get here, and then after sitting under a tree for three weeks, my nice clean car is no longer clean. I live on campus, so I can't really wash it here. I'm looking for a good car wash place someplace near campus...DIY is fine, just so long as the car is clean.

Thanks!

Heh, have you seen how scuzzy some of the cars in the parking lots are? I think the only people with clean cars either wash them at home, or are faculty.

Yeah.

I suppose one of the gas station car washes would be adaequate. Either that or find a hose and use that, but the school probably wouldn't look too kindly upon me using their water to wash my car.

If your car is rather new, I would avoid the gas station auto-car wash. I've heard that the spinning brushes (whatever its called) could leave paint scratches and other slight damages. Of course they are not responsible for any damage to your vehicle.
I prefer the diy hand car wash location where you insert quarters.

That's a good point, but my car's clearcoat isn't in real great shape as it is, so the brushes probably wouldn't do a whole lot more to it. I think i'd do a better job than it though, do you know of any DIY locations somewhere nearby?
