Deep Dive Into Our Platinum Wash

Most car owners know and love the feeling of a professionally cleaned and detailed car. The best wash and wax takes you back to when your car was new. The paint feels almost soft to the touch. Water seems to just bead up and fly off the surface of the car. The windshield looks crystal clear and water droplets just vanish. There’s almost a velvety softness to the surface of the paint. But professional detailing services cost hundreds of dollars! For most of us, a high-end detailing job is an expensive luxury reserved for a high-end luxury car.


So how can you get that same high end feeling on a budget for your daily driver? At Snap Clean, it’s all about chemistry! Our best-selling Platinum monthly wash package delivers the absolute best bang for your buck in terms of preserving your car’s paint job and helping you maintain like-new condition and superior shine year after year. Here’s the play by play of what each treatment does for your car.


Total Shine – A protective specialty wax application to help maintain the clean the best way we know how. A specific chemical formulation creates a barrier between the elements of the road and your car’s paint job. If you aren’t a Platinum Wash Monthly Pass holder, we recommend becoming one!


Tire Dressing – Our tire dressing is specially formulated to offer a long-lasting shine with a high gloss protective element. Many tunnel car washes spray on their tire dressing application. Not us! We use brushes to carefully apply Tire Dressing ONLY to your tires because it’s specially formulated for tires!


Total Body Protectant – A surface enhancer that amps up the shine so your paint job looks more vibrant.

Rainbow Shine – A ph balanced surface cleaner that removes grime and is great for an all-over shine, including on your wheels.

Sealer Wax – A first step wax to seal the clear coat and prep your vehicle for the final rinse and dry cycle.

Wheel Brite Wheel Cleaner – A tire and wheel cleaner in one easy step. We blast away stuck on dirt and prep your wheels to hit the road.

Double Pre-soak Shampoo – This is our basic all-purpose automotive shampoo, and every car wash includes this essential. To remove road grime and preserve your paint job, you need a pre-soak application to help loosen and lift away dirt.


Soft Cloth Wash – Soft cloth foam filled with a special automotive detergent to gently lift away grime and prepare your paint job for shine applications coming up in the tunnel. Our foaming wash is specifically designed to brighten chrome and glass finishes.

Cars that are washed regularly not only feel great to drive but will be well-maintained for years. Protect your car from the elements with a professional weekly wash at Snap Clean. Want the best shine day after day, month after month? Our Platinum wash monthly pass offers daily peace of mind for a beautiful vehicle.
