A Complete Car Wash: Don’t Overlook the Undercarriage!

Regularly washing your car is crucial for its maintenance and care. However, to achieve optimal results, it’s important to give your vehicle a thorough cleaning, including the often neglected undercarriage.

Importance of Washing the Undercarriage:

When it comes to cleaning your car’s exterior, taking a detailed approach is essential to preserve its condition. Every component, including the undercarriage, plays a vital role. The bottom of your car is susceptible to dirt and grime build-up, especially if you frequently drive in wet, dusty, or snowy conditions like here in Colorado.


Neglecting the undercarriage can lead to clogged drainage holes, hindering proper fluid venting and discharge. Additionally, salt and moisture accumulation in the undercarriage pose a significant risk of rust and corrosion.


Over time, your undercarriage can rust causing, leaks, and deterioration of your vehicle's performance.

Protective Benefits of Professional Car Wash:

At Watermill Auto and Pet Wash, we believe that a professional touchless car wash offers more than just aesthetic enhancements. By choosing our Touchless Ultimate Plus Wash with MAG Cleaner, you are protecting your vehicle against premature deterioration and excessive wear and tear.


Cleaning the undercarriage during each wash has several advantages:


  1. Prevents drainage issues.

  2. It improves ventilation, helping to prevent overheating.

  3. Helps to prevent rust and corrosion.

  4. Enhances durability and longevity.

  5. Improves safety.


Rust and Corrosion Prevention:

Rust formation is a serious concern for a neglected undercarriage, as it can compromise the integrity and strength of your vehicle. Rust is formed when metal surfaces are exposed to oxygen and moisture for extended periods. The addition of salt accelerates the rusting process, making your car’s undercarriage even more vulnerable.


Additionally, chips caused by rocks and debris can further expose the undercarriage, leading to rust and corrosion.



How Can Watermill Auto and Pet Wash help?

We understand your car is a valuable asset that needs to be maintained.


Here at Watermill all of our automatic touchless wash levels include pH-neutral non-acid soaps and a high-pressure undercarriage wash.


For extra protection, we recommend the Ultimate Plus wash which adds our unique polymer protectant Mag Chloride Blaster to the undercarriage and entire vehicle to prevent corrosion! Not to mention it is all touchless, so you do not have to worry about scratches on your vehicle.
