Mister Carwash works great on all the cars I've taken through and both my parents' vehicles (they both did the unlimited wash deal).

Self-serve:
Golden Valley at Medicine Lake Road and Winnetka (just east of Hwy 169, always $1 for however many minutes)

Plymouth at 494 and CR10/Bass Lake Road

Self serve car washes that I know of:
Off of Snelling on Energy Park Drive ($.50 washes on Tuesday)
North of 694 on County Road 10 in Mounds View, west side of road ($.50 washes on Tuesday)
Rice Street north of 694 near Hoggs Breath


I think the one on snelling is $0.75 on tuesdays. It's usually $1.50 per cycle, but Turesdays are half off.

That's where I usually go:nod:

I'm going to put a list together of all suggested car washes. So if anyone was unsure of a location, it would be great if you can get it at some point.

I'll start another thread for methods and prodcuts for washing by hand in just a bit.

I know of a place by Grand Slam that is a power wash that you mainly do by hand... It has been a while since I've used it since I'm in Wisc now, but on Wednesdays I believe it is double time for your money.

If you are in the Oakdale area the holiday by Century and Stillwater has a deal (along with a couple holidays close by). Unlimited car washes starting at $19.99 a month. I bought their $29.99 works car wash deal which is the best one they have. It's not touchless so it does a great job removing dirt and salt from your car. Their carwash also has wheel busters (cleaners) that come out and scrub your wheels. Even though I think it does nothing there is also an underbody spray that quickly sprays your car's underbody when you pull in. For the works package you get wheel cleaning, entire body soap/rinse/dry, and underbody spray. I've been through it like 50 times and I have yet to see any scratches from it.

Automatic carwashes will never completely wash and dry everything, so what I do is go through the auto wash then pull into a parking lot and spot hand dry the car. When you do that the results are amazing and it looks like you spent 2 hours cleaning your car when it only took 10 minutes. :)

There is a new car wash off of Coon Rapids Blvd. in Coon Rapids called 3 Dollar Car Wash and they have a person that is paid at the entrance and sprays shit on and it ranges from a cheap quick $3 up to past 10 or 15 i think. Not bad and it is all lit up with neons as well if that helps anything.
