pnkflyd · 03-23-2007, 10:44 AM

Hello everone
I am in philadelphia waiting for a new car

and would like to get some suggestion on how do all you guys living in philadelphia and around keep your cars clean? Where are the best car washwashes and where do you guys buy stuff needed to wax and clean the car?

The best car washes are Dr.Detail in Bala Cydwyd 6106681277 and talk to either Peter or Mike, They do hand washes for about $25 and then there is a wash at 11th and Spring Garden which has guys in the tunnel soaping the car up, rather than machines. They vaccuum, do wheels, wash, dry, and windows for about $18. Hope this helps.

Depends on how serious you want to be when it comes to caring for the car. Autozone or Pep boys carries good off the shelf stuff like Mequires products. If you are really serious about keeping a clean / swirl free / mirror shine, you should check out the autopia.org web site.

I agree with you but I am living in a apartment with no facilities to wash my car myself, so I have to get it done at a car wash.

Use the self serve car wash, just bring your own bucket and products.
