understanding touchfree washing…
Touch-free washing has become very popular with drivers who want a no-contact clean for their vehicle.
At Ecoluxe, we understand this and we offer Touchfree as an amazing alternative wash to our premium soft-touch option. We appreciate there are days where your car just needs a quick, gentle, contactless wash.
But to understand where Touchfree shines, it helps to understand how it works — and where it fits best.
Touchfree washing in Action (2025).
How touch-free actually cleans
Touchfree washing relies on three key ingredients:
Specialised pre-soak detergents to loosen light dirt and road film.
High-pressure directional water jets that follow the shape of your vehicle and
Smart sensors that guide the wash around the car without anything touching it.
There are no soft-techs or cloths involved at any stage. The cleaning is done through chemistry and water pressure alone.
Where touch-free is ideal
Touchfree can be a great choice when:
Your vehicle is lightly to moderately dirty.
You need a wash between deeper cleans.
You have a wax or coating you want to preserve for a bit longer or
You simply prefer a no-contact method.
Well… that’s our Touchfree, it’s fast, gentle and sound for regular upkeep.
So does touchfree actually clean then?
Yep it sure does. Don’t worry we would most definitely not offer it as a solution to our loyal customers if it did not clean. However, because nothing physically touches the surface, Touchfree relies entirely on detergents and water pressure to remove grime.
For everyday dust, light road film and dirt, this washing process works very well.
For heavier build-up, brake dust, traffic film, bug grime, organic flora fallout or even bird droppings that cling to the surface, physical contact is a must have and naturally more effective at lifting it away stubborn spots on your car.
And this is where having options at Ecoluxe becomes so valuable.
Why having both options matters
Some days, Touchfree is effective.
Other days, your vehicle benefits from a premium deep clean that only our gentle, controlled, sensor contouring soft-touch contact can provide.
The majority of carwashes give you one method and that’s it.
At Ecoluxe, you can choose what your vehicle needs today.
The Ecoluxe Difference
Touchfree is an excellent maintenance wash.
Soft-touch is a must have clean to maintain that showroom shine and protect your paintwork.
Having access to both — and knowing when to use each — is what sets Ecoluxe apart.
Because the best wash may not always be one method.
Customers need access to the right method, at the right time - and that’s how our customers get the Ecoluxe Shine.
