Why car wash chemicals matter more than you think

When people think of a car wash, they often picture shiny equipment and smooth operations. But behind every sparkling finish is one of the most important, and often overlooked components, the chemicals.

At Erling, we know that the quality of your car wash chemicals can make or break the customer experience. That’s why we specialize in top-tier chemical solutions from Quest Car Care Products, a trusted name in the industry.

Recently, our team completed a new build installation in Pflugerville, Texas, using Quest’s cutting-edge Chem Genie Chemicals. Why Chem Genie? It’s simple, this ultra-concentrated chemical line is changing the game. Here’s how:

• Less labor and fewer refills
  Chem Genie lasts 2 to 4 times longer than traditional car wash chemicals, cutting down refill frequency and labor costs.

• Lower shipping costs
  The concentrated formula means fewer shipments, reducing both cost and environmental impact.

• Smart, safe packaging
  The jug design prevents spills and chemical exposure while fitting easily into Quest’s “keep full” reservoirs—saving time, space, and headaches.

The Erling Car Wash Team makes chemical installations easy. With a dedicated chemical technician supervisor and a team trained in seamless chemical installations, Erling ensures every setup is customized to your wash packages and operational needs. Whether you’re starting fresh or upgrading, we’re ready to tailor the chemistry to fit your car wash packages.

For many businesses, car wash isn’t just a service, it’s a revenue generator. And just like any other part of your business, it works best with the right tools. Using high-quality chemicals doesn’t just make cars cleaner; it keeps your system efficient, reduces costs, and ensures a consistent customer experience.

At Erling, we don’t just install equipment—we help build better car washes with smarter chemical solutions.
