The
Harm of Handwashing |
|
| Of
course you're particular about your car's appearance. Why else
would you spend all those hours washing, scrubbing,
polishing? It's not your fault that hand washing actually
damages your car's finish. Dirt and sand become embedded in
your brush, sponges , and cloths. |
|
| Two
university studies (University of Texas, and the Technical
University of Munich, in cooperation with Mercedes-Benz) prove
that a single hand wash produces scratches 1/10 as deep as the
paint's thickness-far too many scratches to count. This
repeated abrasive scouring destroys the paint's ability to achieve
or maintain a gloss, or to provide protection against rust and
corrosion. |
|
|
Here
Are Some Interesting Facts |
|
| The
paint on your car is less than five-thousands (.005) of an inch
thick. This doesn't place much of a barrier between the
metal body of your car and the variety of weather conditions that
exist thoughout the year. |
|
| It's
been proven that weekly washing is the single most
important factor in prolonging the appearance, as well as the
resale value, of a car. Dirt traps moisture against the
paint, and will promote rust. Cleaning a car's finish weekly
in an environment such as ours will eliminate the corrosive action
dirt, salt and pollution can create. |
|
| We
also suggest a wax application. Whether you do it yourself
or have a professional wax treatment, don't let this one go. Wax
leaves an invisible barrier on the paint which protects the finish
from many harmful substances. Remember, clean cars last
longer! |
|
|
|
|
| Ever
since the first Model -T struggled from the muddy ruts of a rain
drenched dirt road, people have searched for away to clean their
cars. We have progressed from hand washing to automatic
brush equipment, from brushes to cloth, and now to our new
Touchless®
Cleaning System. It has taken years of effort and research to
perfect this method of cleaning your car without a single brush or
cloth pad touching it's paint! Soft,
warm, soapy water applied under controlled pressure through a
series of computerized robotic arches have forever altered the
course of car washing. |
|
| The
robotic arches are a wonder to watch as they move across and
beside your car, covering every square inch of the exterior,
nothing is missed. This revolutionary new method of thorough
cleaning enables us to flush salt and grime from behind bumpers,
moldings, rocker panels and grille areas. These areas can
not be reached by hand or conventional car wash equipment.
You simply must see your car's new glow as it emerges from the
final clear water rinse to fully appreciate the Touchless®
Shine. |
