Review from Wendy P.
3/23/2011 1 Check-in Here
Car washes aren't all that abundant downtown, so I appreciate having 10th & 10th nearby. I like that they can fit two cars at a time in each bay, although this can be an issue on a busy day and the person in front of you is taking longer to wash their car.
I've stuck to using coin to pay for my car wash. A rinse, a scrub and another rinse usually costs me $6 to complete.
On my most recent visit, I accidentally left my floor mats hanging on the side pegs. I drove back and checked in with the office to see if anyone had turned them in, but the confused look from the woman behind the counter makes me think she didn't understand a word I was saying. I gave up and headed over to the bay I had occupied. Luckily the mats were still there, hanging right where I had left them.
The other bonus here is that it doesn't usually seem quite as busy as some of the other self-serve washes around town. For the convenience of not leaving the core, 10th & 10th does the trick. -

This place overcharges on credit card transactions, so be sure to check your statements.
Oh, and they use hard water, too. -

I have been going here for years as they are close to where I live. This is a pretty typical self serve car wash. Numerous bays, and a little office where you can go in to get change etc.
Over the years they have tried to spruce up this place a bit, with new signage and have recently added the option to swipe your credit card instead of using coins.
The bays themselves offer the following options:
Soap, Rinse, Spot Free Rinse, Foaming Brush, Tire Cleaner, Spot Free rinse, and Wax.
The foaming brush creates lots of thick pink foam and is at the end of a large brush ( I just realized how ridiculous it is that I explained the obvious) good for scrubbing down areas that are resistant to the spray soap.
Now my thoughts on these places is this. They are a good deal if you are going to do a quick wash, rinse, and wax. I can usually keep the whole thing done quickly for 2 bucks. I dont see the point of spending 6 bucks by spending alot of time in there. If I am going to do that, I will just go through a car wash that is automated.
They also have vacuums for cleaning out the car.
This place gets very busy particularly on the weekend. I will keep going here though, it gets the job done.
