#1 Express Carwash & Detail Center
offers first-class gift ideas
Published Dec. 10, 2008

#1 Express Carwash & Detail Center isn’t your typical car wash. For the second year in a row, it was voted the best carwash by the readers of West Shore Magazine from 17 cities.

“To be selected the best Carwash for all of the West Shore communities for each year it has been awarded is very gratifying,” owner Cindy Sears said.

With the holidays coming up, #1 Express Carwash Giftcards are the perfect gift choice. Anyone can use them! They can be used toward the purchase of any service (except vending items). Stop by to pick up a new gift card in any dollar amount beginning at $25. The cards may be recharged at anytime.

Along with gift cards, the new “Washcards” (which are the size of a credit card) are here to replace the paper “Washbooks.” They’re available for any of the four carwash packages with the same savings of up to 25 percent off the normal retail price, making them an excellent value for everyday use and a great gift idea. Washcards are very convenient. With winter – and the salt that comes with it – upon us, there’s not a timelier gift.

Don’t fret. #1 Express Carwash doesn’t only provide savings during the holidays. With each express carwash, all customers receive a receipt which is a coupon for a discount of up to $4 off their next carwash with the same vehicle within 30 days.

There’s a reason why the community voted for the car wash and that the gift cards make great gifts. #1 Express Carwash has the latest in carwash technology. The 150-foot express tunnel uses innovative technology to measure the actual size of a car to ensure a complete wash from bumper to bumper. The combination of high-pressure water, soft-cloth, safe soaps and polishes, and spot free rinse produces a clean and brilliant shine without damaging the paint or finish. In addition, thirteen high-powered touch-free blowers, creating over 200 horsepower of effectiveness, dry the car.

And for other car needs #1 Express Carwash offers comprehensive detailing services in the 4,000 square foot detail building. Affordable express, interior, exterior, and full detail packages are available, as well as hand washes. For the do-it-yourself washer, there are three high pressure self serve bays, eight vacuums and more than 20 car care products offered in the vending area.

Additional services include: fabric and leather protection, paint protection and overspray removal. Detail Center hours are 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Saturday. Call (440) 617-AUTO (2886) for detailing information or to schedule a detail appointment.

#1 Express Carwash & Detail Center is located at 25247 Detroit Road in Westlake, just east of Columbia Road on the south side. The Express Carwash hours are 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, weather permitting. For carwash information, please call (440) 617-WASH (9274)
