If you have a pressure washer, I highly recommend getting a foam cannon. You can grab them off Amazon for around $15. Get some pH neutral soap from Chemical Guys or Adams. Works great.Also, for maintenance cleaning (no grit, etc.) I use CarPro Ech2o mixed with CarPro Reload (mix is 1:10-1:15 of both with water). Simply spray and wipe a section, then go back over with a dry towel. The Reload puts a sealant on top that works really well.
There is one at the corner of 16/Crossover called Portside Carwash. It’s ok but there is nothing else remotely decent anywhere near the area. Self-washes have all disappeared. Fucking ridiculous.
I bought one of those foam cannons and it makes a lot of foam but I can't see how the hell it makes washing a car any easier or better. Still have to use a sponge unless your car isn't really dirty to begin with. I do like the chemical bros soap. Amazon will have that stuff on sale quite often so don't buy it near the stupid MSRP.
So why haVE they disappeared in Fayetteville? Are good ol' hand held washers not funky enough?They still seem to be everywhere everywhere else.

Can our Admin change the thread title to Austin Allen's Cock? If so, then put me down for 10 inches, at least.
The one in Elkins used to be the best anywhere. Hot water and tons of pressure. Washed most of my great uncle down the drain there when he got run over by the brush hog.
Is the one by the Shell station at Joyce and Crossover still there?
For outsiders: the '50s-themed wand-type wash on Joyce has been replaced with an unbelievably nice auto garage.
The one on Township is now an empty lot with a temporary-looking shrub seller.
You talking behind the old Elk Horn or at the intersection of 16 and 74? Back in high school I used that 74 wash a ton. I could put $1.50 in that thing and wash mine and my buddies truck after a trip out to White Rock. Was also a good place to wash off my boots on days I had worked in the chicken houses. Then stop off at Smith's barber shop in the shed next door for one of the two haircuts he could do, buzzcut or a slightly less uniform buzzcut for $4.00.
O Nights of Ni
Think the one down in West Fork still works.
Are there any car wash places left in Fayetteville that have handheld pressure wands?
74/16. Elk horn wasn’t even a think when I left. The 74 one lasted forever and was great. Loved it. Smitty’s buzz cut depending on how much he had been drinking. Got all my childhood haircuts there. The old laundromat was always fun too. It is a donut shop now, right?
I vaguely remember on old barber out at Durham in the East side of the Durham store, but I was so young when I went there I'm not sure if it was Smith or not.
