Before (or instead of) doing ONR washes this winter (since my black Audi is filthy and caked with salt, dirt, etc... and I'm afraid of marring) I was hoping to either go through a touchless wash or, more likely, a self-service coin operated wash. Aside from not wanting to do ONR this winter, I don't have access to a hose, so my only real options are touchless or coin-op.
So I wanted to ask what does everyone do at these places (coin operated), and roughly how long do you spend doing it?
There are not a lot of these in the NY/NJ/CT area so I have absolutely zero experience and don't want to look like a fool or hold up the queue of cars, etc...
Thanks for any thoughts or suggestions!

- Do you simply use their pressure washer to give a good once over to remove larger particles (and maybe do the wheels) and then go home and do an ONR wash?
- Do you bring buckets, car wash soap, etc... so you can use their pressure washer for a once over, then do a regular 2BM wash, then rinse again and go home? And if you do any sort of real washing, do you pull out of the bay and then come back in...
- etc...
