Spot Free Rinse at Tommy’s Express

March 20, 2024 Tommy's Express Car Wash Benefits

You may notice that your car isn’t completely dry after a trip through the tunnel at Tommy’s Express, and thanks to our Spot Free Rinse, that’s perfectly fine! 

Thanks to reverse osmosis (RO) technology (we’ll explain; stick with us!), you don’t have to spend time drying those remaining droplets after you wash at Tommy’s Express or worry about water spots. Learn what makes us so confident in our H20.

How water spots form on a car

When water dries on a car, any small piece of material that is not water also dries onto the surface. That means if water has any kind of impurity, like dirt, minerals, or contaminants, it is left behind as the water evaporates. 

The good news is that when your car is not dry after a wash, it will dry with just a few minutes of driving down the road. But how it looks when the water is gone is the difference maker. 

It is frustrating if you spend money on a cheap car wash that appears to get you clean, but just minutes later, your car looks worse than before. 

You might be tempted to towel dry those few wet spots in the vacuum bay at Tommy’s Express, but have faith in the filters! Besides making your car look amazing, our water has a neat trick up its molecular sleeve.

What is Spot Free Rinse

We understand how frustrating water spots on your car can be. That’s why we include a spot-free rinse in our washes. 

Spot Free Rinse is the final step of the wash you pass through before the blower room. We give your vehicle a final rinse using reverse osmosis-treated water. It makes sure your ride doesn’t leave the wash with soapy or dirty water. 

The water used for Spot Free Rinse is treated using reverse osmosis. With a high-quality filtration process, the Tommy RO system removes total dissolved solids, or TDS, from the water. This includes salts, microplastics, minerals, and more. After treatment, the water is ultra-pure and ready for use on your vehicle. 

Unfiltered water, often referred to as hard water, causes spots when left to dry on a vehicle. Because our filtered RO water is so clean and free of impurities, after a few minutes of air drying, there are no annoying white or ghosty spots left behind.
