Overview

What Is Hand Washing?

A professional hand wash is a careful, contactless rinse followed by a hand-wash with microfiber mitts and a final rinse, dry, and tire dressing. It is the safest way to maintain clean paint without adding swirl marks.

Questions

Hand Washing FAQ

Common questions about this service, answered honestly.

Automatic car washes use rotating brushes that drag accumulated grit across your paint, causing thousands of micro-scratches (swirl marks) with every visit. These permanently dull your paint over time. Hand washing with proper technique and clean microfiber is the only way to wash a car without damaging the paint.
