Car washing isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about efficiency and sustainability. At Melville Car Wash, we’ve perfected a step-by-step process that gives your car a sparkling finish while keeping water use, energy consumption, and environmental impact to a minimum. Here’s how each step of our process contributes to a cleaner car and a cleaner planet.
Step 1: Tyre Cleaner (Yellow Hose)
The tyre cleaner targets the dirtiest parts of your car—its wheels—using a high-pressure yellow hose that minimizes water while delivering maximum grime-busting power. Focusing on tyres first prevents dirt from spreading to other areas, reducing the need for extra scrubbing and rinsing later.
Eco Tip: Start with the wheels to avoid redoing steps and wasting water.
Step 2: Dirt-Lifting Spray (Pre-Soak)
The pre-soak loosens dirt and debris, allowing the following steps to be more effective. This pre-treatment reduces the amount of water and cleaning agents needed to achieve a thorough clean, making the process both efficient and environmentally friendly.
Pro Tip: Let the pre-soak sit for a minute to work its magic before moving to the next step.
Step 3: Intense Soap Spray
Our intense soap spray is formulated to be biodegradable and gentle on the environment. It creates rich suds that lift dirt without requiring excessive scrubbing or rinsing, saving both water and energy.
Eco Fact: Using professional-grade, eco-friendly soap at a car wash prevents harmful chemicals from entering storm drains, unlike many at-home detergents.
Step 4: Gentle Brush Scrub
The gentle brush allows you to target tough spots without wasting water. By relying on the brush’s mechanical action instead of heavy rinsing, you reduce water consumption while ensuring a deep clean.
Pro Tip: Focus on areas like door handles and bumpers to eliminate stubborn grime without overusing resources.
Step 5: Power Rinse
The power rinse uses high-pressure water to efficiently remove soap and dirt, ensuring you don’t need multiple rinses to get the job done. The controlled water flow is calibrated to clean effectively without wasting a drop.
Eco Tip: Work from the top of the car downward to make the most of gravity and reduce the need for re-rinsing.
Step 6: Protective Wax Coat
The protective wax coat isn’t just about aesthetics—it adds a layer of protection that helps repel dirt and water, keeping your car cleaner for longer. This means fewer washes overall, which conserves water and reduces the frequency of chemical use.
Pro Tip: A quick wax application after every few washes can significantly extend the interval between cleans.
Step 7: Spotless Rinse
The spotless rinse uses a precise amount of purified water to leave your car streak-free without requiring a towel dry. This final step ensures no water is wasted, providing a professional-grade finish with minimal environmental impact.
Eco Fact: Spotless rinse systems often recycle water, further reducing overall usage.
