    Any self service jet washes in the Dublin 15 area which do a snow foam? I just used one on a trip abroad and it left the dirty vehicle shiny clean without need to use a brush. Just snow, hot rinse and wax.

    If there's none, are there any self service car washes you recommend around? On occasion I use one at applegreen but it's poor: shampoo (hot) water only lukewarm if not cold, dirty brush etc.

    Platinum detailing in between Coolock and sentry do drop in washes with a snow foam spray. They did the last time I needed a quick wash and I never use car washes. They are based in and around the all weather pitch there.

    Apologies for picking up a very old thread.

    Does anyone know a petrol station with Jet wash and Snow foam in South Dublin? Only got my car in June. I read about a car wash in Nutgrove doing a good handwash for 10 and it sounds like a good deal but I am not sure I am ready to hand it over to someone else yet.

    So if there is a jet wash and snow foam (not a brush one) I would like to try and do this myself and get better. Looking for any recommendations and any other alternative options (cant do it myself because I live in an a rented apartment with limited parking space and might cause issues to others)

    Thanks in advance

    I have the same problem. There isn't any place in D15 as far as I can tell.

    I got my car ceramic coated.

    Once a week or so I use the jet wash at Applegreen in Clonsilla, using just the high pressure foam and rinse. Nothing else. €6 for 9 mins.

    Dry it off, apply detailing coat if I have to or want to. Done in ~30mins.

    Every so often I take it to Platinum Valet for an interim wash.

    More recently though to Car Detail Longmile Road as I find it easier to get there and they use and sell the Gyeon range.
