We have been voted #1 by South Bend Tribune Readers' Choice again, again, again ... again.

We are thankful to our customers for entrusting us with such an honor.

1. Drive & Shine State of The Art Wash System

Our car wash systems incorporate the most state-of-the-art components available in the car wash industry for effective, thorough and safe cleaning of your vehicle. We utilize foam material (which is safer than cloth) on the side rotational units that clean the dirtiest parts of your vehicle at all our wash locations. Our carwash system uses a perfect proportion of soap, hot water and high pressure at proper angles to ensure cleaning of your entire vehicle, including areas you can not reach if you wash it yourself.

2. Paint Is No Match For Mother Nature Even though new car paints are better than ever, they are No Match for Mother Nature.

Car washing is the most cost effective method of maintaining the appearance of your vehicle while protecting your investment... Wash Often & Protect Your Investment.

3. Acid Rain The Midwest is one of the worst spots in the country in terms of acid rain.

The rain that appears to wash your car, after evaporation, becomes a strong enough acid to eat through your clear coat and paint, causing rust. Get A Carwash Immediately After The Rain.

4. Road Salt is not only unsightly, but extremely damaging to your vehicle's paint and underside.

Get your vehicle washed immediately after you drive on salted surfaces and be sure to request underbody wash with it.

5. Ultra Violet Light From The Sun The rays of the sun accelerate the aging process and reduce the gloss on your car's finish.

Have your car hand waxed at least every three months by our professionals to protect the finish on your car. We Can Wax Your Car While You Wait In 20 Minutes!
