What Type of Car Wash is Right For You?

Not all car washes are created equal. Multiple factors can affect the type of car wash you may need at any given time. Depending on many factors, including the current state of your car, your lifestyle, and weather conditions, you may find that some days your car is in serious need of some TLC, while other days you only need a quick shine.

At Take 5 Car Wash, we offer multiple types of car washes for you to choose from, and each offers something different. If you aren’t sure which wash you should choose, the next time you stop by, read through our Take 5 Car Wash “Crash Course 101” to help you decide!

This wash is perfect for when your car only needs a quick pick-me-up. Our standard wash option gives your vehicle a pre-wash by hand and superior clean, and our “bug, body, and wheel” treatment for a spot-free finish. This treatment provides extra attention to your grill, bumper, body, and wheels to ensure your car is free from pesky bug residue.

Maybe you aren’t looking for a hand-wax treatment, but your car still needs a good cleaning. In that case, our Wash and Wheels option is a great route. It includes a pre-hand wash and drive-thru shampoo, “bug blast,” tire scrub, and is complete with a clear-coat sealant for protection. When you need your tires to glisten, this wash type is your go-to. We use water-based silicone technology and a specialty solvent mixture to detail your tires to make them look brand new.

The Wash, Wheels, and Wax option is for those times when you want to focus on polishing and protecting your car. This wash gives your vehicle a superior shine with sparkling tires, utilizing our uniquely-formulated sealant to fill your vehicle’s pores for the ultimate protection from dirt, bugs, and debris. After the ceramic sealant application, the finishing touch is our hand-wax shine!

When your car needs a deep clean, our Signature Wash is for you. This car wash is the whole sha-bang and leaves no spot untouched. So, if you haven’t washed your car in a while, or you’ve just gone mud bogging, the Signature Wash gets the job done right.

We start with a thorough pre-wash by hand to ensure your car is spotless. Next, we tackle bug residue with our “bug blast” treatment and follow it with a cleansing shampoo. This express drive-through car wash utilizes a specially formulated sealant to seal in shine and keep grime, dust, and dirt out. Our hydrophobic, water-beading sealant also causes rain to roll off your car, so you never have to worry about a streaky-looking car or dirt buildup. The final touch is our Armor All wax treatment for a high-gloss finish. This wax barrier shields your vehicle from the elements and offers UV sun protection to prevent color fading, rust, and other exterior damage.

Out of all the car wash types we offer, the Signature Wash is our only wash that gives your vehicle a mirror-finish with a 20% shine increase. It’s the best bang for your buck and ideal for maintaining the integrity of your car.

No matter what car wash you choose, you’ll always get to take advantage of our free vacuums after every wash. If your car’s cabin has seen better days, our mega-horsepower vacuums will get rid of any crumbs you have hiding in those nooks and crannies.
