About Clear Water Car Wash

Clear Water Car Wash is a well-maintained business with all the necessary equipment for a thorough car cleaning. The water pressure is good and the place is kept clean. It accepts credit cards without extra fees and offers affordable prices, typically around $8, giving customers plenty of time to soak, wash, and rinse off their cars. The self-serve bays are easy to use, and the power washer and brush are strong and helpful. Customers can carefully involve themselves in the cleaning process to achieve a shiny and clean vehicle. There is a large lot to park the car after washing, perfect for detailing or vacuuming. However, it can get very busy during most hours, especially on weekends, so timing your visit is recommended to avoid long lines. The equipment is intuitive, but users should monitor their time, as adding more time during the wash is not incremental. The hand vacuum is useful but has limited suction power, often requiring multiple charges to clean the interior of a vehicle like a Mazda CX5. Some customers find the extension wire on the brush annoying when it smacks against the car. Payment can be made with credit card, cash, or tokens, but swipe attempts may not always be successful on the first try. Overall, it is a straightforward DIY car wash that many return to for its convenience and affordability.

    This self serve car wash is ALWAYS busy, except early in the morning and late at night. Be sure to time your trip there or you'll wait in a line. There are five bays and there's always a line during most hours throughout the day. The great things about this place is it takes cards and tap to pay. There are other reviews that recommend skipping certain options during the initial timing of the wash. I tried one recommendation before but eventually just did my own thing. You'll find what works best for you. Another great thing is the large lot to park your car after the wash to do the detailing. I should probably vacuum my car but the machines are always busy.

    -Straightforward DIY car wash. -Found other comments helpful on monitoring your time as it winds down, if you add more time during the wash it's not incremental so be aware of that. -Power washer and brush were strong and helpful -ran out of time so didn't get to utilize the dryer extension One knock: wish the hand vacuum had more suction power. Has to charge it 4 times (2 minutes each) in order to go through my interior of a Mazda CX5. Otherwise no wait, intuitive, useful for exterior washing. Will go back

    I've always driven by this place on my way to work and noticed how busy it can get especially the weekends. Decided to give it a try and been going here ever since. For the price $8 gives you plenty of time to soak, wash, and rinse off your car. When using the brush, the extension wire can smack on and get in the way which is a bit annoying. Theres a separate area when you can clean and vacuum the inside of your car which I always bypass. This place does take credit card and cash but you might not be successful with the first or second swipe. Otherwise you can redeem tokens for cash to use.
