A touchless wash is a drive through, usually no track to mark up your wheels, with a moveable carriage that sprays strong soap, water, wax, etc, without ever touching the vehicle. The carriage uses sensors to get close to the vehicle without touching it. No brushes. Some risk of soaps stripping whatever wax you have applied, and in some locales they recycle the water.
