Default Self-Wash in the West End

I finally moved into my new apartment and am looking for a place that offers washing bays for me to do my own washing. I would rather not have someone else swirl my paint at the "hand wash" places.

I have my Waterless Wash system (Poorboys), but also wanted to find a spot that offers those wash bays in the West End.

Thanks.

I know there is a self wash car wash on Lauderdale right before it hits Patterson Rd.

I used to go there but our place has its own wash pad.

Cool.

I tend to spend WAY too much time detailing (Ive been doing it on the side professionally for 4 years now). Im thinking I would do the cleanup there and then head back to my apt parking lot for finishing touches, waxing, trim restoration, etc.

If you're interested, here is a gallery of some of my recent detailing: http://gallery.rennlist.com/gallery/album558

You're welcome to wash it at my place off Woodman Rd. Maybe you could show me a few pointers on detailing my car. Have a lift if you want to get crazy and clean the underside. Makes it much easier to clean the inside of wheels and wheelwells, too.
