Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@ejohnso81 re car washes:

If you’re using the Standard Mileage Deduction – for Tax Year 2019, 58 cents a mile -- you can’t claim car wash expenses.

If you’re using the Actual Expenses method, you can.

Please see the TurboTax Help article Standard Mileage vs. Actual Expenses: Getting the Biggest Tax Deductionand the IRS's Publication 535, Business Expenses for more information.
