HELP Self Serve car wash needed for TV show in Jax!
Hi,
I need to find a coin-operated, self service car wash in Jacksonville as a location for a TV shoot. I'm having a hard time with internet searches... can anyone give me an address, intersection or exact name of a few in town? The bigger the better, but must be self-service.
Thanks!

13800 ST AUGUSTINE ROAD - Shell Station in The Shoppes of Bartram Park (where Publix is)
I know it is a self service car wash, where you just pay and drive through

Thanks, but I need a car wash with the hand-sprayer & brush; where you do it by hand; not a drive thru. Any ideas?
Thanks for the help!

There used to be one off of Parental Home Road - about one or two blocks from its intersection with Beach Boulevard (between Beach Blvd and Hogan Road). It was the kind where you put the quarters in and could select the foaming brush or the spray wand - the wand would also spray soap, and then you could change it to plain water and spray wax to finish up.

There is one on Powers/Old King Road.
I read in previous posts that you want to see quirky- We have a new strip mall that preserved a hideous huge plaster dinosaur that used to be the mascot of a goofy golf. They repainted it bright, tacky colors and it is right in the middle of their parking lot.
There is also a very "unique" Mexican restaurant on Main Street just north of the downtown. And another building downtown that has been "pimped" with all kinds of things all overt the outside.
I think the massive confederate flag at the state farmers market along I-75 is pretty weird. We drove into the market to see how it could be erected on state property and saw that they have a marker- Sons of the Confederacy.
Here's another unusual building on the northern part of downtown:

You mean Dino on Beach Blvd? I love him! 
Who says Jacksonville isn't all about art and culture?! 
Here's a story about him, last I checked, he was still there (about 2 hours ago! ):
