Good hand car wash North of Chicago?
Anyone know of any good hand wash car wash places in the North Suburbs. I tried a place in Libertyville which was OK, but they still used a power washer for rinse, and tracks to pull the car forward, so I didn't like those aspects. Definitely need to get the salt off ASAP. Its getting Caked on. Anything North of the City is fine and not really too far west either, I'm not talking Schaumburg and beyond.
Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks guys.

I had a hard enough time allowing myself to take my Del Sol through car washes, the S2000 is in a league of its own.

Delta Sonic , it's on Dundee Rd. in Palatine just west of 53. They do a really good job.
Sadly I can no longer go through a car was cuz my car is too low. Everything scrapes against the guide rail.

I found a detail shop in Schaumburg that will hand wash and or detail. no tracks to drive along or anything. They had nothing more powerful than a garden hose in there.
847-338-6436
They are right behind the Chevy dealer on Golf Rd.

From my experience, they'll never get the car as clean as you do.I will NEVER, under any circumstances, let any body else wash my car. I washed it yesterday,(before the snow fall) at one of those touchless places, being real careful around the seals, and I had brought two large micro fiber towels and dried it myself.
