What Is a Self-Service Car Wash?

A self-service car wash gives you full control over how your vehicle is cleaned. Using professional equipment available at each wash bay, you choose which programmes to run, how long to use them, and how thoroughly to clean each area of your vehicle.

Advantages of Self-Service Car Washing

  • Cost-effective — pay only for what you use
  • Open daily 06:00–23:00, no appointment needed
  • Full control over programme, intensity and duration
  • Professional high-pressure systems and power foam technology

Step-by-Step: How to Get the Best Results

1

Pre-Rinse

Begin with a pre-rinse to remove loose dirt and debris. This prevents scratching during the main wash phase.

2

Apply Power Foam

Our unique power foam penetrates and loosens stubborn grime before high-pressure water is applied. Let it sit for one to two minutes for best results.

3

High-Pressure Wash

Work from the roof down in overlapping passes. Pay extra attention to wheel arches, sills, and lower body panels — these areas collect the most dirt.

4

Rim Cleaning

Direct the high-pressure lance at each rim. The angled nozzle reaches tight gaps between the spokes with ease.

5

Rinse and Gloss Care

Finish with a clear rinse and optionally add our gloss care treatment for extra shine and lasting paint protection.
