i was at the car wash getting my m6 ready for cruise in kuwait streets , then i was stairing at my interior and it was glowing with the car wash lights and the waters came on the glass it was exiting , so i took this short video from my sony ericsson c905 .

I love it! Nothing better than enjoying everyday life with the beast.

Recycled water in car washs eates wax much less the brushes creating scratchs. You are betraying the beast by not hand washing it! Be kind to the beast and it will be kind to you!

please dont do that to ur M.. if its a regular car wash, the mitts that spin will just give u swirls/scratches..

if its touchless and only water and soap sprays, they are using recycled wated which eats away at the wax/polish... and also im sure someobdy either wipes it down with soap before hand which they use a dirty mitt that they have used on ur wheels, and previous cars= scratches/swirls again

and if they are wiping it down at the end to dry it, they are using one towel to dry ur whole car collecting the dirt with that one towel and in return scratching the car once again

take care of ur car, not just the engine, but the paint as well..

watch them wash ur car next time i guarantee you... they do 1 out of 3 of the following

1) they will go over ur paint with the same mit that they used on ur wheels... think about how much dirt there is on ur wheels

2) they will wipe your whole car with a mitt, and not rinse in a bucket once, it will just be one process, one big wipe all over your whole car

3)they will use the same mit from the car they washed before yours that already dirty

100% they will do at least one of the following

im sure its the best car wash in kuwait,

i have the "best" car wash where i live too Park Place Auto Salon im sure ur kuwait one looks around the same.. i have not taken my M through the car wash once, wash it myself everytime.

but watch after a year of them washing your car, ur paint is going to look like this i guarantee you it!

see those spider web/swirl marks, those are small scratches caused by bad washing/car washes

not tryin to tell u what to do.. but trust me, it feels really good.. when you have a 3-7yr old car and people are asking what year is it because it looks brand new.. take care of ur paint

**just did some quick research about kuwait and the car wash u speak of...people are saying that AL FALAH car wash detail is better then the super service"
