The honest everyday wash
Hometown Basic
Everything a clean car needs and nothing it does not. The same Basic wash Walt ran on Dodge Street in 1987, with better water and softer cloth.
Inside the tunnel
Here is exactly what happens to your vehicle, in order, during a Hometown Basic wash.

- 01
Presoak and bug prep
A low-pH presoak loosens road film, bugs and bird droppings before anything touches the paint.
- 02
Soft-cloth wash
Closed-cell foam cloth, rinsed constantly, cleans without holding grit. No stiff bristles, ever.
- 03
Spot-free rinse
Reverse osmosis water leaves nothing behind to dry into spots on glass or dark paint.
- 04
Heated air dry
Contoured blowers follow the shape of your vehicle to push water out of mirrors and trim.

About Hometown Basic
Yes. We use closed-cell foam cloth that does not absorb grit, plus a presoak so dirt is lifted before contact. Dealers around Omaha send new cars through it every week.
Every tunnel wash, Basic included, comes with free use of our vacuum and mat stations for as long as you need.
About four minutes in the tunnel. On a busy Saturday add a few minutes in line.
