I am still seeing watermarks that must be from the last last car wash a couple of weeks ago. It was one of those drive through car washes at a gas station. The marks seem to come out with ease using a micro fiber towel and a slight rub. However, I do not want to have water marks on my car 2 weeks after the wash. When washing a car do you suggest staying away from gas stations (or was this one just bad?) What about full service car washes? Or is it always best to do it yourself? Simply, how do you feel about gas station car washes?

The wash gets done a lot better doing it yourself
