Why CleanCar

The small things that keep paint looking new

Anyone can spray soap on a car. The difference is in what happens before the first drop lands and after the last towel comes off.

Six reasons

Why drivers keep coming back

None of this is exotic. It is just the work most wash places skip when the queue gets long.

Trained technicians

Everyone on the line is trained in-house for six weeks before they touch a customer car, and paid by the hour.

Two-bucket hand wash

Soap in one bucket, rinse water in the other, both with grit guards. Grit stays at the bottom instead of on your paint.

Paint-safe products

pH-neutral soap, biodegradable degreasers and wheel cleaners that never touch the clear coat.

Published prices

Every package and add-on is on the wall and on this site. Nobody is inventing a number while you wait.

On-time promise

We quote twenty-five minutes for an Express wash. If we run over without a reason, that wash is free.

48-hour guarantee

Look the car over in daylight. If we missed a spot, bring it back within two days and we fix it free.

The honest comparison

Hand wash or tunnel?

A tunnel wash is fast and cheap, and on a muddy van that is fine. Here is the trade-off, without the marketing.
