    So with the current hosepipe ban in effect in Dublin, and living in an estate so there is no way of washing the car without being seen and shamed, where do people recommend to get it washed.

    It's a new car and I don't want to use a normal car wash etc. I was looking at the guys in Clonskeagh who are open 24 hours, does anyone have any experience with them. I'm open to suggestions preferably somewhere south side though.

    Only a week old but heading to France so would like it sparkling. Did a long drive yesterday so covered in bugs now. Don't need the interior done.

    I have used 5 Star Auto Valet in Baldoyle a few times and have had no complaints so far.

    Was given as a recommendation on here from one of the lads, they do valets as well

    I use the lads on Nutgrove Avenue and as you can see I love my car, so wouldn't let any numpty at it!

    They use fallout and mitts, €8.

    Can we hand wash with the 2 bucket method at our homes? Have a wedding tomorrow, it needs a wash

    I use them a bit when I don’t have time/am too lazy to wash the car myself. They’re OK but they always, always miss a small patch somewhere on the car which inevitably looks sh!t when the car dries off. Miles better than a petrol station brush wash but if you’re interested or OCD enough to be on a detailing forum you might be disappointed.
