    Soft, closed-cell Neo Tex wash material works across your vehicle for a gentle friction wash.

    The vehicle is rinsed, then our Ceramic with Graphene finishing treatment is applied with the Ultimate package for added gloss and water repellency.

  5. 05

    Drying agent & protectant

    A drying agent helps water release from the surface. Clear Coat Protectant is included with The Works and Ultimate packages.

    Final rinse & AirCannons

    A reverse osmosis rinse is followed by our powerful 80 horsepower AirCannons for a clean, dry finish.

Neo Tex wash material

Gentle by design.

Neo Tex is a soft, closed-cell foam. It doesn’t absorb water, and dirt doesn’t penetrate the material, helping it stay clean through the wash process.

  • Soft, spongy wash material
  • Closed-cell foam that does not absorb water
  • Approximately four times lighter than traditional cloth
More about Neo Tex

Its lighter weight helps reduce wear on wash equipment. Neo Tex is also more forgiving than traditional cloth: individual strands can break if they become caught or tangled.

Before entering any tunnel wash, ask an attendant about racks, loose accessories, or other vehicle modifications.
