2 touch-free bays · open 24 hours
Nothing touches your car.
Except water.
Two touchless bays. Pull in, pick a wash on the screen, stay in your seat. No cloth, no brushes, no spinning anything — high pressure and chemistry, nothing else.

How it works
Four steps, no attendant
Pull in
Follow the guide lights until the display says stop. Mirrors in, antenna off, aerial racks removed.
Pick and pay
Four washes on the screen. Cash, card or tap at the terminal.
Sit there
The equipment works around the car. You do not get out.
Dry, then finish
Out through the blowers. Pull into the drying bay if you want to towel the jambs and dress the tires.
Touch-free
Nothing touches your car but water and chemistry.
No cloth, no brushes, no spinning anything. Take a black car through and go look at it in the sun afterwards.
No contact means no contact
High-pressure water and chemistry. Nothing mechanical, and nothing the vehicle ahead of you dragged in.
Why some touchless washes disappoint
Presoak strength, dwell time, water temperature, pressure. Get any of it wrong and the car comes out wet instead of clean. Ours are monitored.
When touchless is the wrong tool
Baked-on bugs and caked mud need contact — no touchless machine will fully take it off. That is what the four self-serve bays are for.
Consumer Reports recommends a touchless wash that cleans the whole car, undercarriage included, for road salt. Every wash here includes the underbody and wheel blaster.
November to March
The five months that decide what your vehicle is worth
ODOT put over 760,000 tons of salt on Ohio roads last winter. That salt does not sit on the paint — it sits underneath, on the brake lines and the fuel and suspension components, and it works all winter.
NHTSA says wash the undercarriage
After a five-year investigation into corroded brake lines, NHTSA advised drivers in twenty salt-belt states — Ohio named — to have the undercarriage washed several times during and after winter.
Water alone will not do it
An ODOT-funded study found soap and water insufficient to remove residual salt. Take a wash with a real high-pressure underbody blast. Every wash here has one.
Wash on the thaw days
Any day above 40 degrees. The salt is wet, mobile and coming off, and the doors will not freeze shut afterwards.

Straight answers
About the automatic bays
How long does it take?
Three to five minutes in the bay. There is no line because there is no conveyor and no queue of cars waiting for one.
Do I stay in the car?
Yes. Follow the display, put it in park or neutral as instructed, and stay in your seat.
Is it really touchless?
Yes. Washworld touch-free machines — no cloth, no brushes, no spinning anything. High-pressure water and chemistry only.
What do I need to take off first?
Fold the mirrors, remove the antenna if it unscrews, and take off bike racks, ladder racks and anything bolted to the roof. If it will not come off, use a self-serve bay.
Will my truck fit?
Check the posted clearance sign at the bay entrance. If you are over it, the self-serve bays take almost anything — that is what they are for.
Which wash gets the salt off underneath?
All of them. The High Pressure Underbody & Wheel Blaster is on every wash including the $10 Fresco. In Ohio that should not be an upsell.
What is different about Splendore?
Ceramic wax instead of the repellent conditioner, and it is the only wash that runs a double pass over the front and back — which is where bugs, road film and winter spray actually collect.
Is the club worth it?
If you wash more than once a month, yes — it is unlimited on the same wash you were already buying. No contract, and you can cancel in the app.
