Most of us love to own and drive cars, but few of us like to wash them. This is the reason behind the popularity of touch free car wash Calgary services. There are many people who wash their vehicles at home but the convenience that automatic car washes offer is hard to beat and hence more and more people are relying on the service today.

Automatic Car Wash
Wondering about the categories of an auto wash?

Well, here is a look at the five major categories of car wash

  • Self service: The system typically uses an open bay where the car is placed. It has a pressure sprayer and a foaming brush that is connected to a large central pump. The sprayer has a coin-operated dial system that allows you to choose between options like “soap”, “wash”, “wax”, etc. There is also a timer that stops the water after a certain span of time. It is at this point that you need to put in more coins in order to get more water.
  • Exterior rollover: This automated car washing system is getting popular day by day. It allows you to drive your vehicle inside the bay and place it in the correct position. Once the proper placement is done, the various equipment devices start moving over your vehicle, performing various different functions.
  • Exterior only: This touch-free system requires you to drive your car inside a long tunnel-like bay. The front tire that is generally on the side of the driver, is positioned on a special conveyor belt, and then you need to put the vehicle in neutral. It is the conveyor belt that guides your vehicle through the bay, where it passes through several devices, each of which serves a distinct purpose.
  • Full service: Having the same conveyor belt-system, this is only a modification of the previous system, except for the fact that the interiors too are cleaned. It also offers some additional services like wheel cleaning, hand-drying, etc.
  • Detailing services: This automated system washes your car, and then it is manually cleaned, polished and waxed. The attendants also steam clean seats and carpets, remove tar, brighten chrome, and can also remove old wax with a tool called buffer. This service helps you get rid of small scratches and dull paints as well.

The touch free car wash Calgary uses high power jets of water and strong detergents to clean your vehicle. It is called touch free or automatic because the wash doesn’t require any physical contact, but only water and cleaning agents.

Once you are done with all the cleaning and shining, make sure that you dry your vehicle well, otherwise, water stains may be left. The drying too can be done automatically. It works much like a huge hair dryer. The device heats up large amount of air and gushes it out through multiple nozzles, rapidly drying the surface of the vehicle.

So you can see that an automatic car wash gives you the convenience of getting your auto washed without you having to move a finger. All you are required to do is take your vehicle to the washing station and leave the rest to be done by the machines.
