Laser Car Wash in Wilmington, NC did a fantastic job on a really awful '89. Drought in Raleigh has banned car washing. Took the cheapest wash at $6.00. Man oh man, what a difference.

Anyone have experience with this method. Advantages/disadvantages?

Inquiring minds want to know - how in the heck do they wash a car with lasers? Is this some Luke Skywalker trick or what?

It doesn't use lasers. They just call it that.

They use iR to detect the size of the vehicle.

Lasers aren't involved in the cleaning. And IR isn't a laser. :p

and most ppl call IR lasers ... just like ppl around here called the early nokia phones with IR ( nokia with lasers ) ... not all IR can be lasers too there are UV lasers and any colore depending on the gas used to excite the laser from.
