Latest Car Wash Machine Arrives in Nishinomiya Unlimited Daily Washes for ¥2,500 a Month Keeps Tires and Body Sparkling [Nishitsu Ad]

It’s been raining so much, my car is seriously filthy. Since it’s a dark color, the dirt really stands out. I hate it so much〜

The rainy season is over now, so why not go get it washed〜??

Washing it myself is such a hassle〜. And it’s insanely hot right now〜. Hand car washes are expensive too〜💦（complaining nonstop〜）

Apparently a gas station in Imazu recently got a new car wash machine! Want to go check it out〜?

Ohhh, perfect timing! I’m going to check it out〜! Actually, I’m already getting in the car and heading there〜!

So, we came right over〜!

This is the gas station along Rinko Line in Imazu Dezaike-cho,

Enefri Nishinomiya Inter Shop !

Here it is on the map↓

The address is 10-71 Imazu Dezaike-cho, Nishinomiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.

It’s huge〜 ! This isn’t just a regular gas station… it almost feels like a little theme park! Where’s the car wash machine?

It’s right this way! This is the new car wash machine, “Astage (XS-704)”!

Showing us around today is the store manager, Mr. Yamamoto, whose sun-tanned smile is fantastic.

Wow!!! It’s so shiny〜✨ Compared with the car wash machines you usually see at gas stations, the brushes look longer and fuller〜😳 But, Mr. Yamamoto…

My car is really dirty. Is it okay to put it through the machine? The tires especially… they’ve turned totally brown. Embarrassing.

The new car wash machine we’re introducing today is packed with all kinds of car wash technology! It can provide a high-quality wash tailored to each individual car. And of course, the tires too👍

Now I’m excited!!!

Before washing it, let’s show just a little of the BEFORE condition〜.

This, this right here. Those rain streaks appear after just one rainfall, don’t they〜 They really stand out〜😅

Behold! These grimy tires〜🙄（tires I’ve never properly washed…）

There are plenty of other dirty spots too, but I’m too embarrassed to show any more… so, off to the car wash〜!

First, choose the wash menu on the touch panel. Believe it or not, it’s a drive-through car wash, so you don’t even have to get out of the car! There are lots of menu options, and you can choose based on how dirty the car is or which parts you’re concerned about, but since we’re here, we went with the set menu “Tiara Coat Premium”（it includes tire washing too〜）. Go get beautiful〜✨

After the first shower, fluffy foam is launched from the Jet Foamer, completely wrapping the car. It feels like the dirt is slowly lifting off〜（from inside the car, the view turns thrillingly white!）

The brushes really are full and plush! They’re washing it with a nice, detailed brushing motion〜!

Um, it looks like it’ll get clean, but I’ve always had this image that car wash machines might scratch the car, so I’ve been a little hesitant until now.

I understand. But! This car wash machine uses Finel brushes, which are high-foaming sponge-type brushes, so there’s almost no need to worry about scratches.

Almost?

It’s said that one wash creates scratches of about 0.02 microns. A human hair is about 70 microns, so they’re invisible to the human eye. Scratches can happen even when you wash by hand, so this machine is excellent.

I see〜 that makes sense. In that case, I can wash it with peace of mind〜

For the tires, tire brushes come out. They’re scrubbing away even the grime stuck deep inside! There’s no way I could ever do this myself〜😂

Then, with the glass-based coating “Tiara Coat”, which provides top-class gloss and water-shedding performance, it gets a clear, glossy coating and comes out in about five minutes〜!

Ohhh, it’s already shining〜😎 Now we’ll give it a quick wipe-down. The drying area is spacious too, so you can clean at a relaxed pace without feeling rushed〜. And this pink towel we’re using…

They lend it to you here for free  （up to three per car） And it absorbs water and leftover dirt really well. It’s nice not having to worry about forgetting a towel and being unable to wipe the car〜😭!

All wiped down〜! So shiny〜!! It’s practically a new car😂 The rain streaks are, of course, completely gone. As for the tires…

Look, look〜! We only wiped them quickly, but they got this clean〜😂 Apparently the little bit of brown dirt still left is baked on and won’t come off anymore…🙄（I really need to wash them more often from now on💦）

There was also a vacuum cleaner for cleaning inside the car〜! And recently
