any tesla car wash recommendation around West L.A?

[vivi.yambao]

I am looking at Yelp but I want some recommendation from Tesla owners who has personal experience with their car wash

Did you ever get any recommendations? I’ve used beach cities on Lincoln in Venice drive through often for my last model S but just got an ultra red plaid S and worried if drive through brushless can damage the paint.

There’s nothing that makes Tesla any special or different than any other car going through a car wash. No reason to ask for Tesla specific recommendations

It’s not Tesla specific, it’s specific to an apparently more complicated paint they are using and trying to find out if I should worry more because of it.

It’s nothing more special or complicated than multicoat paints from any other manufacturer. And no matter how many layers the paint is underneath, it’s all topped with clear coat regardless so no matter what you’re just washing the clear coat.

Tesla likes to make things sound special and unique to them. It’s not.

The only paint that would require special care and treatment are matte finish paints which Tesla doesn’t offer.

A touch less wash is recommended by Tesla meaning a car wash with no brushes and no track. You pull in and the machinery moves around the car. They are tough to find but I know of this one sorta on the west side.

I use that one all the time. It's not perfect, and I usually get water spots, but it gets the job done.

There's one on Washington in Culver City as well 11197 Washington Blvd. Would be interested in hand washing places that are highly recommended in West LA too!
