Default Good place to wash car myself in tri-state area?

I'm looking for a good place to go to where I can wash my car myself with my own products (i.e. not a power washer with soap shooting out of it).

Any recommendations?

I live in Manhattan so I've got no access to a hose.

Default Usually those self service bays have the hose without soap..-you drop in quarters

and get a few minutes to use... so put in a few quarters... rinse off the car and fill ur bucket... soap... and more quarters to rinse off- gotta be efficient with the hose usage tho and plan it out =]

scrub a dub is around in MA at least..

Default That was in the manual from Germany. Was supposed to be edited for the U.S.

especially the Eastern edition, where nobody gives a damn

Default In CT or NJ possibly, in NY you'll just find the stand alone machines outside..

...no actual bays.

Default you'll prob have to drive to the Bronx or Queens...

It doesn't make any economic sense for anybody to waste real estate on a coin operated self service car wash in Manhattan..
