Item from July 14, 1992, in China Daily: Spraying and scrubbing, the private car-washing business is mushrooming in the coastal cities of Fujian province.
Most carwashes are family owned. They charge 5 yuan to wash a car and 2 yuan for a motorcycle.
The carwash industry has enjoyed rapid growth since China raced past the United States to become the world's largest auto market in 2009.
