You are thinking about the old places that converted to touchless. The new ones by my house use sensors.

I have a guy i call and he comes once a week or so and washes a few of our cars. Price is reasonable, $20 a car.

So did you damage your wheel ?

I use this product called CarPro Hydro2. It's a sealant that makes everything bead up. Takes like 5 min to apply to the whole car (you need a pressure washer). After applying the sealant while the car is still wet and after the car wash, you can literally take a leaf blower and blow the water right off in seconds. Or you can use the sheeting method. This is when you place your mf towel onto the surface of the car and pull the towel. No pressure needed and it will dry your car completely.
