Default Car Wash - Philly Area

Can the salt spread on the road during winter damage the car? If yes, where can I find a good car wash that does a decent undercarriage wash? I already sprayed high-pressure water underneath my car but I don't know if that is enough.

Thanks in advance,
Chico.

The new Comcast building to be exact.
It's the tallest in town.

Default None of the automatic washes are that great for undercarriage....

You are better off going to a coin op or getting the hose out and doing it yourself. However, up in Lansdale there is a touchless automatic wash that does an OK job underneath for light to medium washing.

Take 63 into Lansdale to the 7/11 and turn right, go about 4 blocks and its on the left attached to a body shop

Default Hey John

That's what I did. I went to a coin op car wash and sprayed a lot of water. Is it enough?
At this Lansdale car wash... do they use special product underneath the car, or just water?
