If your shady parking spot rests beneath bird-filled trees, or someone scrawled carpetbagger into the layer of grime on your car window, today's Groupon can give your vehicle its original off-the-lot shine. For $18, you'll get Auto Spa Hand Car Wash's Wax Works Way package, including a complete hand wash, wax, and interior clean, a $38 value. Baltimore Magazine's Best Car Wash of Charm City, Auto Spa is located a cool 15 miles outside the city in Cockeysville, making the return trip in your newly perfected vehicle a ride you'll wish would never end. This Groupon isn't just great for sprucing up your own car: it also makes the perfect passive-aggressive gift for your dirty carpool driver.

The friendly staff at Auto Spa will lovingly hand-wash your car's exterior, get the gunk off your undercarriage, scrape the bug guts from the windows, and clean up your wheels. Your beloved vehicle will be put through rounds of pampering that will induce a brilliant shine, including a triple-coat polish, Velocity Clear Coat protectant, spot-free rinse, tire shine, and Blue Coral Express hand wax. The car-care gurus will touch up your drying car with a hand towel before slathering on the decadent wax, then move inside to vacuum your carpets, wipe out your door jambs, dust your dash, and wipe down your door panels, cup holders, and seats.

Most people wait until their car develops its own ecosystem before deciding it's time to clean. Let the Auto Spa staff, with their years of detailing experience and knowledge of the latest techniques, wade into the mess to give your car a better cleaning job than an unemployed clown would be able to give. You never know when you might have to drive your boss to a downtown eating competition. Today's deal eliminates the need for constant apology on your unexpected drive; instead, let your passengers apologize to you.

Reviews

Baltimore Magazine named Auto Spa Baltimore's Best Car Wash, saying:

• With its stainless steel and bright blue décor, eager-to-please staff, stacks of great magazines, and extensive list of "spa" services from hand waxing to shampooing to leather reconditioning, we could hang out all day at the newly renovated Auto Spa…Our cars like it, too, as they're transformed from road weary to just-off-the-assembly-line gleaming.

Citysearchers and Insider Pages users give Auto Spa a solid four stars:

• I've always had a great experience at Auto Spa. Everyone is so courteous and my vehicle is always spotless and smells great for days. I believe they go above and beyond to make you feel like a valued customer. Especially the managers, who keep a watchful eye and are there on premises to assist you at all times. – G. G.

• My multiple experiences with this hand wash and detail facility have been consistently impressive. These guys take special care and do a phenomenal job time and time again. They never miss the wheels or interior, and they do do [sic] windows. – Patricia G., Insider Pages
