The Clean Bunnies

What actually happens

Three steps, and you are inside for all of them

You text us a preferred date.

Tell us where the car is parked and when you are home. That is the whole booking process. No app, no account, nothing to pay up front.

We check the car first.

We photograph every corner before we touch it, and we ask one question: is there anything on this car we should stay away from today?

Rinse, foam, wipe, dry.

We rinse the grit off first, with our own water, so nothing gritty ever gets dragged across your paint. Then foam and hand dry, one panel at a time. About thirty minutes later we walk around it with you and ask what to go back over. Then you decide what the whole thing was worth.

The part most people get wrong

Why nothing we do scratches your paint

Almost every swirl mark on a daily driver comes from grit. Not soap, not water, grit. It gets dragged across the clear coat by a spinning brush at a tunnel wash, or by a dirty towel used a second time. We do not own brushes, we rinse the grit off before we start, and here is what we do about the towels.

We rinse before we touch it

Every car gets rinsed down first, with water we bring ourselves, because grit that is already on the ground cannot be dragged across your paint. Almost nobody offering a waterless wash does this. It is the whole reason ours is safe.

Gentler than the guidance

The published safe range for pressure washing a car is 1,200 to 1,900 PSI. We rinse at under 600, on the widest spray setting, from about two feet back and never straight at a panel. We are not blasting dirt off your paint. We are floating loose grit away so a towel never has to drag it.

A clean face per panel

Every towel folds into eight clean faces. When one face gets dirty we flip to a fresh side, and that dirty side never touches your car again all night.

Wheels stay separate

Brake dust is metal. Wheel towels are a different colour, a different bag and a different laundry load, and they never once touch a painted surface.

Dropped means retired

A towel that hits the ground is finished for good. It becomes a wheel towel that same day and never goes anywhere near paint again. No exceptions to this.

Balanced, never harsh

Our foam is pH neutral, right in the middle of the scale. It lifts road grime without stripping the wax, sealant or coating you already paid good money for.

Safe on every surface

Paint, glass, chrome, plastic trim, wheels and tyres. One foam handles all of it, with nothing aggressive saved up for the parts people usually blast.

Photographed first

We shoot every corner before a towel comes out, existing scratches included, and you are welcome to look through the pictures with us before we begin.

Evenings on purpose

Soap drying on a hot panel in full sun leaves spots that look worse than the dirt did. Cool paint and low light is simply when this is done properly.

Honesty, in advance

Sometimes we will tell you no

We are a speed wash, not a detailing company. That is a real limit and we would rather say it out loud than find out halfway through your driveway.

Too dirty is too dirty

If your car is caked in mud, beach sand or road salt, we will say so and reschedule rather than take your money and drag that grit across your clear coat.

We ask before we touch

Matte finishes, wraps, older single stage paint and soft tops all get a question first, and sometimes the honest answer from us is that we should pass on it.

One thing, done fast

No engine bays, no paint correction, no ceramic coating, no interior shampoo. We do speed washing, we do it quickly, and we do that one thing genuinely well.

The price

You decide
what it was worth.

A hand wash like this usually runs about thirty-five dollars, and that's about where most people land. Some pay more. Some pay less. That's not a technicality, it's the whole point.

"If I lock them into a price, they are going to expect business to work that way. Business is truly unexpected. It is literally a roller coaster, and I want them used to that." Eddie, the dad in the driveway

This isn't a donation

It's a real wash done properly, and it should be paid for like one. We're not asking anybody to be charitable. We're asking you to be honest about what it was worth.

It's the actual lesson

A fixed price teaches a kid that effort has a fixed reward. A price that moves teaches them the real thing: do better work, and more often than not you get paid better for it. They figure that out themselves, in dollars, inside ten cars.

Where the money goes

Every dollar splits four ways

Nobody needs to pay a penny more because of this list. It is simply where it goes, and the kids decide the percentages between themselves.

Spend on something now

Something they actually want today, usually Pokemon cards. This one is not negotiable, because a business you never get to enjoy is really just a chore.

Give to our community

Our church first, since that is where this family already gives, then a cause the kids choose. Right now the animal rescue is winning by a wide margin.

Save for a goal

Disneyland. A real number up on a wall, divided by the price of one wash, which turns into arithmetic a nine year old will happily do without being asked.

Reinvest in the business

Towels, solution, better gear. The first time towels they bought with their own money earn that money back, they will understand capital better than most adults.

Who shows up

Two kids and their dad

Matt

Age 9 · Operator / Cleaner

Runs the wash and does the talking. He can explain the towel rule to you better than this website can, and he will if you ask.

Avi

Age 6 · Greeter / Cleaner

Takes the before photos and hands you the card. She is the reason most people say yes, and she knows it.

Eddie

Dad / Cleaner

Drives, supervises every single job, and stays out of the way. An adult is on site the entire time, always.

The things people actually ask

Seriously, I just pay whatever I want?

Yes. A hand wash like this usually runs about thirty-five, and that's about where most people land. We'll never negotiate with you and we'll never react to the number. You'll get a thank you either way, and we mean it. We're grateful you'd trust us with your car and let two kids build something real with you.

Are kids really going to be careful with my car?

An adult is on site for every job, and the method itself is the safety system. Fresh towel faces, wheel towels kept completely separate, photos before we start, and a car we turn down if it's too dirty for the method. That's more discipline than most drive-through washes apply.

How long does it take?

About thirty minutes for a standard SUV or smaller. Anything bigger takes a little longer. It's the outside of the car, done by hand, and at the end you tell us how we did and what you think it was worth.

Do you need my hose or my water?

If we can use yours, tell us ahead of time and that's a real help. If not, no problem at all, we bring our own water and a setup that works without a hose. Either way we rinse the car before a towel ever touches it, because rinsing grit off is far safer than wiping it off.

What if I'm not happy with something?

We walk around the car with you at the end and ask if there's anything you'd like us to go back over or fix. We take care of it right then, and it never costs anything.

Can my neighbour get one at the same time?

Please. It's the single most helpful thing you can do for us. Two cars at one stop means one setup and one drive instead of two, so we can fit more washes into an evening. Tell them what time we're coming and we'll do both back to back.

Who can book?

Right now, friends, family and neighbours, and that's on purpose. The kids are learning how a business actually works, we want it to stay fun while they do it, and starting with people we already care about means every wash doubles as a visit. We'll open it up when they're ready.
