Question 1

What type of wax is used in the tunnel?

Accepted Answer

We use a carnauba-blend liquid wax formulated for automatic wash application. It provides real protective benefits including water repellency and UV protection, though it has a shorter lifespan (2–4 weeks) compared to hand-applied waxes or sealants.

Question 2

How often should I wax my car in Florida?

Accepted Answer

Florida's intense UV exposure and salt air mean paint protection matters more here than in most states. For tunnel wax, we recommend adding it every 2–4 washes to maintain coverage. For longer-lasting protection, consider our hand carnauba detail or a synthetic paint sealant.

Question 3

What's the difference between tunnel wax and hand wax?

Accepted Answer

Tunnel wax is a liquid formula applied by the wash equipment during your wash cycle — fast and convenient, but not as thorough or durable as a hand application. Our hand-applied carnauba wax detail is applied section by section by a detailer and buffed to a deeper, more even finish that lasts 4–8 weeks.

Question 4

Is wax safe for wrapped or ceramic-coated cars?

Accepted Answer

For ceramic-coated vehicles, standard wax should generally be avoided as it can reduce the coating's hydrophobic properties over time. For vinyl-wrapped cars, check with the wrap manufacturer. When in doubt, call us and we can advise.
