- How to use a car wash. I go to my local car wash station where there are staff at hand to help you/guide you in. I cover what my car is like before going into the car wash and how clean my car looks after going through the car wash.
Whilst at the car wash and going through the car wash I give you tips that will help you to stay safe and dry whilst in the car wash. I hope you find the video helpful, if you do, please like and share the video. Safe driving.

I'm so grateful for this! I'm a single mum and I've never dared to try it before, didn't want to embarrass myself. 😅
Thank you for watching. Safe driving
You gotta be willing to risk the embarrassment. Think of it this way, you can only embarrass yourself once, after that you become a pro and you can now take it every time
I just watched this and drove straight to the car wash. It was a success 😊 thank you for showing me what to do!
Never been through one before, thanks for the advice. You don't put on the brake at any point, do you?
@@shannonlacey2660 I was so confused cuz I never done this either and watched a few vids they all said the neutral thing but none mentioned turn off the engine ...so glad I found this one. Here I am feeling so incredibly dumb 🥴
Nowwww, on to finding out how to turn off the auto wipers on a 2011 lexus RX 350 😬😅🙈😫
Thank you for making this video I’ve never been through the car wash by myself and I’m pretty nervous but this video has helped ease my nerves a bit, thank you Travis!
Safe driving and thank you for watching
This video is helpful, I’ve never been taught how to use one of these and was a little nervous. Helps to know what to expect!
Thank you for watching and enjoy the experience
The video we all needed
Thank you for watching and your kind comment. Safe driving
Thanks a lot. I have used one before but i still get anxious and it helps to be able to watch someone do it before I go. I stalled the first time i tried to get onto it but they just laughed about it 😂
Thank you for watching and I am happy that it helped.
Thanks for the video really helpful, never been in one of these before.
Glad I could help!
I use this car wash in Kingston Regularly. Great clean inside and out. This video is great for newly past drivers looking to keep their motor Fresh.
That was my idea behind the video. It is a great car wash.
I have had a hand wash as they generally tell you what to do thanks Travis
thank you for making this video Sir, it helps a lot
Happy to help.
Great stuff, never used one either 👍
They are handy. Thank you for watching
Really helpful!! Thanks! x
Happy to help
Omg just what I need. I should have washed it myself.
Love these videos thank you :)
You are so welcome!
Great tips 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you for watching
Thanks, helpful video
Thank you for watching
Thanks for this video. I've been driving for ten years and I'm scared of these!
Thank you for watching
Thank you very much, very nice video 👍
Safe travels. Thank you
Thank you!
Safe travels
Thank you so much
You're most welcome
Thanks bro
Safe driving
Useful video, interesting 👍
Thank you
Thanks Travis! My car doesn't have fold-able side mirrors so it freaked me out the first time I took it for a wash and the mirrors slid all the way to end on their rail. I could of course slip it back in place but this has me hesitant in going back for another automatic wash. Could you perhaps do a video on self-wash boxes at these places so one knows how not to damage it :)
Also, do you have to turn off the engine? The car in front of you seemed to have it on.
Cheers.
Yes you are supposed to turn engine off. The car in front was electric car.
Could do a video about when to signal and when not to signal thanks this would really help me x
Hi Amy, here are a few videos on signalling and driving such as turning right th-cam.com/video/h_cXgUEJrto/w-d-xo.html

Hi there and Happy New Year, I'm trying to take mine in for a first time wash, possibly tomorrow or next week. I've got an aerial on top of the roof which I haven't worked out how to handle yet. Other than that I'm good I believe. I stopped by only to read the intructions today.
Most aerials will screw off with anti clockwise turning. Some you can leave on.
🔥 🔥
Thanks
You have a very nice looking car, my areal does not want to come off so i can only do the hand wash one.
Thank you for watching and your kind comment
Everytime I Google a driving question Travis has a video.
I love that.
If I don’t have the video, let me know😂
Thanks for the explanation! What should I do if I want to clean the insides of my car though?
There are hoovers usually at the sides of these places
I've tried it a few times, sometimes without any issues. The last time, I did not stop the car in the right spot for the wash to start, and when it didn't I reversed a bit more than they would allow and the car wash robotics took it as an exit.Then I moved forward again believing that the wash would begin, it used the wash code of the next person in line. We settled with cash. I will watch this video and learn from you. Thank you for posting.

Mr Travis, do you recommend cleaning the components in the bonnet I.e. engine etc?
No with a jet wash.
If you can see a leak or something is dirty, then maybe when car engine is cold and turned off.
Handbrake on or off?
Never used one of these before & thinking of taking my works truck through, it’s a Nissan navara which is slightly bigger than an average car so don’t know if it would fit through. Question is, do these types of washes have sensors on them that read the size & profile of each vehicle so as not to damage them ?
They have a size guide before you enter.
Hi, I have a 2019 auto car, with the button to start the engine how would I operate this for the car wash I'm nervous to get it washed but I do want to go soon and try it (I've done it before in an old manual car but this is a big change for me) thank you 😊
You would need to place the gear selector onto neutral
May I ask if the front wheel brake dust was cleaned? It wasn’t specifically shown at the end.
Yes it was. They done a good job
Remember to test your brakes at low speed, after exiting the car wash or jet wash facility.
Yes a good tip.
My automatic won't go into neutral unless the engine is on. As soon as I turn it off or just leave the battery on it goes into park mode locking the front wheels. 😢
Oh, that sounds unusual
I've taken my father's car through the carwash many times, but watching it just now through the camera lens was really weird!
Thanks for watching
Hand-wash the best lol
If you have time, if not then car wash
What if you can't put the side mirrors in automatically
I used to wind my windows down and pull in the mirror’s before I go in.
Do i need to put the handbrake on, just pass my test a month ago
No handbrake
It's my first time use automatic car wash and never ever go back again. I feel like screw up
It takes practice
How & when did you pay for it?
You can pay via an app or in person with cash or card. Very easy
Scary 😦
Looks scary but it’s not.
Holy fk that was scary
Make sure your windows are up
