I have been known on occasion, when I don't feel like doing a full blown wash and wax etc. to take a 5 gal. Home Depot bucket with a lid, fill it about a 1/3 with hot water add my Mequiars car wash soap toss in my car sponge snap on the lid put it on the floor of the passenger side and head off the the car wash.

$1.00 for the water wand get it wet, then out comes the bucket give it a quick hand wash and then a $ 1.50 to rinse.

I don't care for car washes that much except to rinse off my car, brushes, brush less, foaming etc. meh.

My GF takes her FIT to a car wash and for $10.00 you get all kinds of different colored foams, it is like some 70's late night rock and roll psychedelic background going on on the windows.

I imagine this is what it was like inside Timothy Leary's head, very exciting, and again, meh.

I suppose that really didn't answer your question about apt. complex car washing.

Hand wash it at a car wash.

...every time I go through the car wash and see the colors of the rainbow, I imagine myself running over a unicorn...
