Good to know

How much does a single automatic car wash cost?
A basic exterior automatic wash costs between $8 and $12, covering a standard soap application and rinse. Premium tiers ranging from $18 to $25 include undercarriage washes, triple-foam conditioners, tire shine, and ceramic wax coatings.

What is the difference between touchless and soft-cloth automatic washes?
Touchless washes use high-pressure water jets and specialized chemical detergents to clean without physical contact, protecting delicate paint or aftermarket wraps. Soft-cloth washes use closed-cell foam strips to physically scrub dirt, offering stronger removal of baked-on road grime.

How long does an automatic car wash cycle take?
An automated conveyer tunnel cycle typically takes 3 to 5 minutes from entry to the final air dryer. Roll-over in-bay automatics, where the vehicle remains stationary while the equipment moves around it, usually take 5 to 7 minutes per vehicle.
