How does it work?
We use a special waterless cleaning formula that traps dirt on contact.
Once applied, it is wiped away using gentle micro-fiber towels and then
buffed to a beautiful shine. The process even leaves a static barrier to
help keep your car clean longer!
How does it help the environment?
Cleaning method saves fresh water
 |
An average home car wash uses between 80 and 140 gallons of water. |
 |
Commercial car wash operations use between 20 and 45 gallons of water per car. |
 |
It takes about 3 gallons of water to make one gallon of the "spot-free rinse"
offered at commercial car washes. |
Process prevents water pollution
 |
Driveway runoff from home washing pollutes local waterways with oil, gas
and detergents. |
 |
Carwash runoff is fatal to fish because of damage to gills and removal of
natural oils necessary for oxygen absorption.
|
Hand-cleaning conserves electricity
 |
Commercial car washes use high-powered equipment and conveyers.
|
Formula is environmentally friendly
 |
Biodegradable, non-toxic and petroleum-free
|
How does it protect the value of your car?
 |
According to Kelly Blue Book, a vehicle's value is directly linked to its exterior condition.
|
 |
A well-maintained exterior increases owner satisfaction and extends a vehicle's useful life.
|
 |
Regularly scheduled cleaning prevents scratches and rust damage to your paint finish.
This damage can cost hundreds of dollars to repair.
