If you ever go to a fully robotic carwash you might notice before the car goes in there is someone there with a little pressure washer, a brush and a soap mitt getting the car ready to go through the tunnel. The first time you see this you think yourself why is that person there? Shouldn't the automatic carwash be good enough to clean the car without any human labor?

If the carwash owners do not pre-prep the car then there will be customer complaints. Of course if they do prep the car prior to wash it slows the speed, cuts down the volume of cars that can be washed in the day and changes the consistency of each car washed due to the human elemen...

Well, when it comes to industry surveys yes I see a lot of that actually. Even worse when all of the data seems to point to a particular exactness from all the different res...
