hi! I just got a car wash honda civic 2011. I noticed that after the car wash, my AC blew colder air. Is this normal?

The car wash may have washed crud off your condenser that was partially blocking airflow.

It's normal. When the condenser fins get wet, it causes more efficient evaporation and hence cooling. Same as if you spray your home AC unit with water, it will cool better. You can even buy kits for your home ac to do this. Has to do with convection and heat transfer, blah, blah, blah.
