AutoGreenWash offers next generation of cleaning
Mon, 03 Feb 2014
Looking for a way to keep your ride sparkling clean? Look no further. While researching unique ways to keep our cars spotless, we have found a rather cost effective setup -- as long as “cost effective” means the cost of a modest Dodge Dart.
AutoGreenWash is space-saving, budget-minded and easy to use. In the videos, a curtain cascades around the car, and with a few taps on the control screen, the automated system gets to work. A series of low-pressure nozzles gently rinses debris from your vehicle with the aid of a biodegradable car-wash solvent. Now, the idea is sound, but what happens with all of the waste water? It is relocated, stored and reused for things like watering the lawn.
When the wash cycle is complete, heat dryers come down from the ceiling to dry the car. When the cleaning and drying process is done, the enclosure rises up and is stowed away.
In theory, it is a great way to keep up with cleaning your whip, instead of just breaking out the rags when you can't see through your rear window. And for those of us residing in the snow-riddled Northeastern states, this would be a fantastic way to keep salt and snow off of the paint.
This seems like an awesome alternative to going to the car wash every day, and it'll keep you from installing triple-digit wash racks. In addition to being easy to use, this wash setup offers the least amount of contact with the paint. Because it's a low-pressure system, you won't have to worry about water etching the paint, or aggressive mops dragging refuse and other contaminants across the paint over and over again.
AutoGreenWash claims that walking out every morning to a freshly cleaned car can be more than just a dream; it can be a reality.
Keep in mind that while this system does keep the vehicle clean, additional elbow grease is needed for some of the tough spots.
Pricing of the AutoGreenWash comes in at a base price of $18,950 and tops off near $29,500, plus an installation fee around the $4,000 mark.
