About Car Washes

The first automated car wash appeared in the United States in 1930 and, like today, was shaped like a rather large tunnel. However, at the time, there weren't a lot of options, such as waxing, etc. These weren't prominently found throughout the country until the 1950-60's when technology evolved to make this system more widely available.

In today's world, car washes are apart of every day life and can be found at a large majority of gas stations throughout the world. Who wants to be spraying a car with water when you can simply pay a few dollars to get it done automatically?
