here's the list in order of best to worst:
1) have a professional detailer wash your car (expensive as hell)
2) hand wash it yourself (need to buy proper tools and have a driveway with water source. expensive initial investment but then less money but takes a LOT of time)
3) touchless car wash (won't scratch but won't clean)
4) regular car wash
5) regular car wash with those idiots hand drying at the end
6) "hand wash" at a local gas station, car wash, self service bay or even the dealership. stand there and observe for a couple minutes and you'll see people using that very same brush you use to clean your car to clean their wheels and tires. examine it closely and you'll see the amount of debris stuck to them...

You left out the best and lowest cost method:
Spray wash with clean, soft wash mit.
You basically hand wash and use the sprayer as your constant source of soapy and clean water. At the end, spray the "no spot"/"spot free" softened water. Works great, no scratches.
Takes a bit of time, but she's worth it.
