Preparation

What to Expect

A little preparation goes a long way. Here's everything you need to know to make your Shadowshine experience smooth and seamless.

Water Access

We need access to an outdoor water spigot or hose connection. Most homes and apartments have one available.

Parked & Accessible

Your vehicle should be parked in a spot where we can comfortably work around all sides with shade preferred.

Unlocked & Cleared

Please remove all personal items and valuables. Leave all doors, the hood, and the trunk unlocked.

Your Presence Optional

You don't need to be there! Leave the keys in a safe spot and we'll notify you when we arrive and finish.

Rain Policy

If rain is expected, we'll reach out ahead of time to reschedule or discuss options. Interior services can proceed regardless.

Power Access

For premium services like steam treatment, we may need access to a standard 120V outlet within 50 feet of your vehicle.

Hard work

Not happy with the result? Let us know within 24 hours and we'll re-do any area that didn't meet your standards - completely free.

Punctual Arrival

We respect your time. Our team arrives within the scheduled window and communicates proactively if any delays arise.

Premium Products

We use only professional-grade, pH-balanced, and biodegradable products that are safe for all vehicle finishes and materials.

Eco-Friendly Process

Our water-efficient techniques use up to 80% less water than traditional car washes. We care about your car and the environment.
