The Three Types of Automatic Car Wash

Today's automatic car wash systems fall into three basic categories: Friction, Touch-free, and Conveyors. Here is a brief description of each category of automatic car wash equipment:

• A Friction automatic car wash uses cloth or a cloth-like material as the primary cleaning medium. The materials that touch the car can be cloth, poly filament or, on the most advanced systems, a foam co-polymer material such as Ryko's patented FoamBrite. Friction automatic car wash equipment provides the best cleaning and, with the new technologies, is gentler on the vehicle.
• A Touch-free automatic car wash uses chemicals and high-impact water spray to clean the vehicle. No other material touches the vehicle. Ryko has two styles of touch-free equipment: one rides on rails mounted to the floor of the wash bay, and the other is wall-mounted.
• A Conveyor automatic car wash is usually a touch car wash system. The owner of the vehicle activates the system, and then a conveyor pulls the vehicle through the wash. This type of automatic car wash equipment is designed for high volume locations and is more labor intensive.
