When you think about car maintenance, you might just think of oil changes. But regular car washes are just as important. They help fight off depreciation, protect against environmental damage, and even improve how you feel behind the wheel. Cobblestone’s top-tier equipment, premium products, and expert team make it easy to keep your ride looking like new.

Read on to discover why making car washing part of your routine is one of the smartest things you can do for your ride.

Washing Your Car Helps Keep Its Value

Planning to hang on to your car for the foreseeable future? Regular washes help keep it in better shape, inside and out.

• Protect Your Paint: Dirt, bugs, tree sap, and bird droppings can eat away at your paint, so it’s important to wash them off as soon as possible before they cause real damage. Choosing a wash that includes wax helps shield the paint and makes it easier to wash off those harmful contaminants.
• That “New Car” Feel: There’s something about getting into a freshly washed car. Frequent cleaning helps maintain that just-off-the-lot appearance, smell, and feel.
• Hold On to Your Value: Washing regularly helps prevent rust, fading, and corrosion, which all lead to faster depreciation.
• Think Ahead: Even if you’re not planning to sell anytime soon, it’s worth noting that buyers (and Kelley Blue Book) care a lot about a car’s condition. A car that looks and feels new is likely to command a higher price.
• Fast and Convenient: You’ll get a thorough, satisfying clean in just minutes. And with many locations to choose from, there’s bound to be a Cobblestone near you.

Extend the Life of Your Car

Car washes are more than just cosmetic — they’re one of the most affordable, effective ways to preserve your car’s condition and make it last longer.

• Rain, Then Shine: It may feel like it, but rain isn’t nature’s free car wash. Rain contains pollutants like dust and industrial emissions that stick around long after the clouds clear. So, stop by Cobblestone after the storm and wash away what the rain left behind!
• Powerful Products: Our premium-grade cleaning agents and high-quality, pH-balanced formulas are tough on grime while protecting your paint. Choose one of our wash options that include wax or sealants to help remove surface scratches and keep your finish looking showroom-shiny.
• Gentle, Effective Equipment: Our wash tunnels use foam and soft brushes that scrub without scratching.
• A Fresh Interior: Crumbs and spills can make for sticky messes, so catch them before they bake in the sun. Free amenities like vacuums, microfiber towels, dash wipes (available in Arizona), and compressed air are available with every wash!

Beyond the Wash

Our full service locations (available in Arizona) are your one-stop shop for total car care.

• Confidence on the Road: Driving a clean car just feels better. It boosts your mood, clears your mind, and gives you a sense of accomplishment.
