What I did was , I went to automatic car wash in Astoria 21st St near by Queens bridge and I always tell car wash guys, dont touch the car, just let it go through, dont even touch it to; dry then I take it to nearest Pepboys parking, I used ONR to wipe the left over dirt "used many towels", then I wiped it with car pro eraser and then waxed it.

Sorry, I don't know of any good battery powered pressure washers. Maybe someone has bought one and can chime in? I've seen someone get a small generator to power an electric pressure washer while he washes his car at a self car wash place. Or another alternative is to hook up the power to your car and pressure wash, but this method will drain your battery quickly. Make sure the pressure washer is compatible with the car if you do go that route.

You should take it to that place I was telling you about in Northern Blvd 20 bucks makes your car looking really nice! Definitely worth it. Really? Lol when I do that I usually just park around here where there's some space and wash the inside.

LOL, I went to that place, I call that place "Professional Swirls Installer", they use same wash mit on every car. I am NOT going back to that place again. As I said earlier Usually I go to touchless car wash and instruct them ;don't touch my car. car just go through automated wash and air dry and I even don't let them to dry it with towels, then I take it to nearest parking area and wipe with Optimum No Rinse.
There is school parking area near by my place on GC Service road and sometimes I park it there to clean it inside.

Correct, its rear Hess station. if you inspect your car paint under sunlight you will see swirls...that forest hills high school parking is just across my place and nobody bothers you there or sometimes I go to lake across GC PKWY

All handwash places are like that ..don't go there. if you want get good hand car wash in queens, go to Warren http://shopdetailersgarage.com/index.php?
he will wash your car with foam gun and dry it with air gun, he wont touch the paint. he charges $30 for wash and its worth.

not like lion claws lol.. but I did notice some swirls after wash at that place and as I mentioned earlier, they use same wash mitt and they use it all over the car. when I wash my car at coin operated place which they close in winter, I use two wash mitts, one for hood, doors,roof and another for bumpers, trunk, side skirts. side skirts, bumpers and trunk get lot of dust.
