| - With unlimited washes for $16.95 a month, I am finding myself heading to Quick N Clean every time my vehicle gets a tiny bit dusty or has a watermark from a raindrop. You just drive up, pay (or use your fast-pass which opens the gate when you grab your receipt from the machine) line up your tires in the track with the guidance of a worker, and sit in your car as all of the non-abrasive scrubbies whirl around, soap and wax are sprayed about and clean your car. If you have an especially bug-infested bumper, the attendant will high-pressure spray your front-end before the machine takes over.
My car has never been so sparkly, spot-free, had a clean interior or smelled so good since I got a Quick Pass. There are three levels of washes that are offered for a monthly fee (this location, which is independent from the others, only offers a Quick Pass valid at a couple of other locations; ask before you buy a pass if you travel around the valley) which range from $12-$25 a month.
I chose the Deluxe Wash which gets you a wash, tire scrub, undercarriage cleaning, wax spray and even shine on the tires, included are a interior freshener and disposable chamois to dry your vehicle. Vacuums are free with all car washes. If the machine does not get all of the dirt, you can ask to go through again - I have never had this happen with a mid or higher level wash, but I can see how the basic wash can do a minimal job.
Whether you get a quick $3.00 wash or the Deluxe $15.00 top-to-bottom wash, your vehicle will get a high-speed air dry and you have the option to wipe it dry under the shaded canopies or use the 60-mile an hour dry method. There are vending machines if you require additional car-care products. If you do get just the basic car wash, you do not get a spot-free rinse or a free chamois to dry the car. Contrary to what others have said, there is a difference in which mechanisms activate within the car wash based on which level of wash you paid for. Therefore, it behooves you to get at least one of the mid level washes; doing so ensures you get a complete spotless dry and shiny tires at the least.
Whichever option you choose, having a Quick Pass allows the option to get in and out quickly if you only have five minutes. Then, on other days when you have more time, you can vacuum the interior, clean the windows inside and out and wipe dry your vehicle top-to bottom. The good thing about those days when you are not in a hurry is that it allows you to take the time to inspect all nooks and crannies of your car - last time I was there, I took the time to wipe all of the rubber parts on the doors and trunk and discovered that a loose gasket was the culprit of my incessant leaky trunk - who knew a car wash would fix a years-old drip? For that reason, I now see a car wash as an essential part of preventative maintenance on a vehicle and knowing that I can go as often as I would like is well worth the money I have spent.

(p.s., yes, I was trying to set a record for most-hypendated words in a review for a car wash)
