Signature Elite Wash

SPA’s Elite wash package bears our Signature designation because it is truly what we’re known for! Once you’ve had our Signature Elite Wash, you won’t be happy with a wash from anyone else! How do we know? Because customers tell us and they tell their friends, and most drive quite a distance to get one – 20% come from zip codes that are more than 10 miles, and fully 60% come from zip codes that are more than 6 miles away – in some cases that’s a 30 minute or more drive to get a car wash!

It’s very simple – if you get an Elite wash twice a month, your car will stay clean and new as long as you own it! You won’t need to detail it – an occasional clay and wax will keep your paint clean and you will always enjoy the incomparable feeling of driving an immaculate new car! While some see full service car washing as a luxury, our customers view the Signature Elite wash as an essential component of car maintenance. Frequent intensive cleaning of your car will maintain its value but it’s the feeling of seeing your clean wheels, shiny paint, and dust free interior that will keep you coming back!

STEP ONE – The Greeting and Prewash

It all starts when you drive right up to the tunnel entrance, get out of your car and speak with our greeter. You select the Elite Wash you prefer and let the greeter know about any specific issues you’re concerned about. While you’re doing that, SPA’s staff are removing your mats, performing an initial vacuum of your car and making sure there’s nothing on your car that could be a problem, like bike racks, toe hitches, antennae, any form of damage, sand or grit in a truck bed, or sap or other unusual filth on the car. Any of these conditions may require remediation and moving the vehicle to the detail bay prior to entering the tunnel. Fabric mats are agitated for cleaning in our mat machines, and rubber mats are power washed. These days, with some electric vehicles, you may be asked to get back in the car and sit as the car goes through the tunnel.

STEP TWO – The Tunnel Process

As your car enters the tunnel, SPA staff spray prewash chemicals for bug removal and power wash the outside with our wash wands including the door jams, by opening each door. Extra dirty areas and white cars are hand scrubbed all over to assure the best results. The car is then transported through the tunnel on our conveyor getting the undercarriage cleaned and then alternatively sprayed with detergents, scrubbed, and rinsed, and scrubbed and rinsed again, before liquid polishes and wax are applied. Hydrophobic solution is then sprayed on, before the car runs through a spot free final rise and is dried with giant air blowers.

STEP THREE – Hand Work

A trained driver then retrieves your car at the end of the tunnel, sprays all the windows with an ammonia free window cleaner and drives it to our drying area. There, another team hand dries any wet surfaces, cleans the door jams and wipes all the interior windows clean.

STEP FOUR – Queue Up

Once the hand work is complete, the car is then moved to a queue area where it awaits a detailing technician who will complete the Elite services. If there is an open slot at the detail bay, it will be moved there directly without the need to queue up. It is important for customers to understand, when the car is in the queue area, it is not complete and should not be driven away!

STEP FIVE – Blow Out and Finish

From the queue area the car is driven over to the detail bay area where the mats are removed and our technician uses industrial strength compressed air to blowout the entire interior of the vehicle. Most people don’t know that it is compressed air and NOT vacuuming that gets the interior deep cleaned! After the blowout the technician vacuums the loose dirt, crumbs and debris. The seats and doors are wiped down with a high end shampoo manufactured by AutoSmart, a product preferred by Aston Martin. Cloth mats are cleaned using shampoo and alcohol and scrubbed with a buffer equipped with stiff brush. ElitePlus washes include a wheel detail that involves hand scrubbing with a brush or sponge, depending on the wheel finish, and an acid solvent that dissolves caked on brake dust. Elite Platinum washes are finished with a hand wax.

All of that Sets SPA Apart

Indeed our equipment, our cleaning products, our methodologies and our staff distinguish SPA and set us apart from the competition. There is no other car cleaning business in the region that offers the unique combination of services. And as for value, no one guarantees their work like SPA – all our clients know that if there’s anything they’re unhappy with, we will fix it no questions asked or if they decide not to come back we’ll refund their money! And any time is a good time to get a Signature Elite wash – our customers even come in in the pouring rain to get their Elite wash, because they know that we have a 48 hour rain guarantee! They get the interior whistle clean and then come back when the sun shines to get a free exterior wash!
