Testing the FIRST Touchless Car Wash in The UK

- This week we're doing what we never thought we would do, take our demo SVR through an automatic car wash! But not just any car wash, a touchless one! We had never heard of this type before until one sprung up local to us, this is American technology which has just made it to our shores.
So we thought we'd give it a go and take you along with us to see what its like and of course, see the results!
Let us know your thoughts of this new tech in the comments and if you would take your car through this?

Good video, not as bad as normal car washes and not too bad for a quick wash
We've had a Storm Touchless in Rye since 2018, used it many times, always a good result
I had an American touchless car wash 10 years ago just up the road from me in York at Inner Space filling station, Hull Road, as far as I know that was the first. That's been replaced by a Christ Aquatus Prime German unit which has various programmes including touchless. All computer controlled to hug the contours of any vehicle and incorporating a touchless air blower drier. Very expensive state of the art piece of kit which costs an absolute fortune. Does an amazing job.
Thanks for watching 🙂
Nice to stumble upon this video given I live in shrewsbury. Thanks guys 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for watching Ryan
Your car looks great and so shine, because it had the ceramic on.
Thanks Marius 👍
Should of been blown dry,damage happens when drying the vehicle.
Pick up a bit of dirt on the cloth and you will drag it round the entire vehicle = swirls
Looking forward to you guys PPF'ing my car at the months end!
Looking forward to it ourselves 👌
There need to be more touchless car washes, I'd never take my Scirocco to a car wash with brushes.
A question: I think this is “Petit 360” machine. They claim it takes less than five minutes to clean a car. Is it true?
Great little video , you carried out the job of doing my car's PPF, and its great , but to take a car in to a car wash with PPF or no PPF is a no-no
paint used to day not hard enough
Thanks David hope you are keeping well.
@@AutoshineTinting yes great , yourself and all the team at Autoshine & Tinting are well
There is one just been built near me I have to take my car through it this afternoon. That's why I am watching this But there's no people at this one I think you do all on your phone
In touchless car wash how much water use
Should be spotless water that way no hand drying needed
So far for the touchless part! NO DONT RUB IT 🤣
what's wrong with those small scratches on the car? it's not like a car.
Who cares about how clean the car is….. look, there’s a Burger King in the carpark.!!!
Well it's not the first in the uk , the first was at Magor Services in about 2010
Seat not adjusted properly. Your arm is fully extended and your back isn’t against the seat.
If you use a sponge or a special cloth for washing your car it scratch your car, everything thats tuched your car , high pressure water also , scratched the car
Ooi I hope one comes to kiddi thanks for the video Duncan 😊
Thanks Dee. My friend sent me a picture while he was fitting a new screen in your car yesterday, hope you've got it all sorted!
@@AutoshineTinting wow you know everyone lol 😂 yes luckily when they broke the glass to get in it fell on the car but surface scratches on the back. We get it back tomorrow
@@DeeDeeHair That's lucky and unlucky at the same time then. Glad you've got it sorted though 🙂
When you have a wrap will PPF protect that wrap as well?
@@DeeDeeHair It will yeah, but the PPF will last a lot longer than a wrap so when you factor cost in it's not always worth it. On my last wrap I PPF'd over the wrap on the bonnet and front bumper to protect from stone chips which was great, but it add's £ on the the job.
We have a lot of these in the USA. Why do you think its taken so long to be adopted in Europe?
By the way that is a Petit 360 machine. Basically the best there is!
@@therevestor I've actually got no idea, but it's a well known saying over here that the UK is normally 10 years behind the US on a lot of things business wise.
It is the best of the out there. Absolutely correct 👌
We like washing cars and cutting grass in are spare time
Not enough refugees
A bad idea considering most repair jobs are poor, a high power pressure washer can easily remove factory applied Honda clear coat and base coat. I've seen it flake off with my own eyes to the primer below..you also wouldn't want to take a focus mk2 in electric orange in there either.. if you've had lets say a rear quarter repair and they haven't removed the glass and taped up to the rubber seal, when it expands and contracts it will crack at the seal, then you go into this car wash and flake your clear coat off. Also if the tool who repaird it didn't scotch the adjacent panels that have been clear coated that's coming off aswell. Also the high powered air blower? It's not unusual to use an air compressor to remove poor paint, and to aid with vinyl wrap removal..
Where is this car wash located ??
Shrewsbury
Come and visit our touchess car wash in Hull and spreading around the country
Is your Touchless car wash open ?? what the prices ?? which places is this going to have Moonbeam car wash in South Yorkshire ?
@@carwashestvchannel1685 Hi, yes we're open in Hull with plans for locations around the country
First few seconds I was wondering why Tim Westwood is detailing cars now
FFS 😂
You will never catch me putting my car through that or any car wash best to do the job yourself,for a proper job them jets are that powerful your asking for problems
Definitely not the first. I’ve used the one in Virginia Water so many times.
Paying £10 for someone to scratch your paintwork by rubbing left over dirt around the car is insane!
First touchless wash was only a year ago? FFS...these have been around for 20 years.
What was the point of the car wash being touchless when a couple of blokes drag some scruffy towels over it at the end?
You've also got to question how strong the chemicals are if they can remove dirt without touching the car.
We do what people want. We have been cleaning cars for over 15 years and we know what people want. The wash is completely touchless and the hand finish is optional.
All of the defects will be put in during drying. I'm a detailer, even new cloths, the car will not be perfectly clean prior to using the cloth.
Never will support the use of these methods if you are into your car care. Those swirls are horrible.
Those swirls are not normal from safe washing on PPF or wrapped car (I'm a ppf installer too).
Otherwise a good video and I like the wrap colour.
The touchless bit is fine - using 0tds water would be fine. Don't bother with the drying.
They use way too high of pressure and it will tear through your emblem glues. Not ideal but ok in a pinch.
