Are there vehicles you don’t recommend washing?
Saying YES to any vehicle isn’t really the best idea. Our wash is designed for your everyday car, truck, and SUV. Vehicles with trailer hitches, debris/equipment in-truck beds, Utility trucks with attachments, after-market parts, bike racks, rust, age, etc., cannot be accommodated. If in doubt about your vehicle, stop by and speak with one of our team members before washing. Max height is 84 inches.
Are electric cars safe in your tunnel?
It is safe for electric cars to wash in our tunnels.
Do I stay inside my vehicle?
Yes, please remain in your vehicle throughout the wash process. All you must do is slowly enter the wash and ease it into Neutral when instructed, keep your foot off the brake and hands off the steering wheel. Enjoy the ride and say “goodbye” to squeezing your tires between the rails!
Will my vehicle get scratched during the wash process?
Rolling Thunder Express only uses the best materials and equipment in our tunnel. Neoglide is an industry-leading material that inhibits water and dirt absorption preventing buildup of paint harming debris. Our curtains are made of non-looped, non-absorbent backed polyester fabric that cannot retain debris. All fabric is consistently rinsed with every wash.
Do you close on inclement weather days?
Closing our wash is not something we take lightly. Ultimately safety comes first: customer safety, team members safety and operational safety are paramount in our decision making process and Rolling Thunder Express reserves the right to close the facility when circumstances warrant. Note: Extreme cold is also a factor to ensure that our equipment and your vehicle remain safe to operate in those conditions. If we have ice or snow on our lot, we will remain closed until it is safe to operate.
Tell me about your in-tunnel light shows?
Various lighting effects will be used. Visitors that may suffer from epilepsy & other visual light stimulation effects are advised not to enter the tunnel. If you choose to enter you are doing so at your own risk. Rolling Thunder Express is not responsible for any related damage, injury, or death.
Do you offer any interior services?
We are an exterior-only service; however, we do have free vacuums, towels and spray bottles on site for your complimentary use.
What is Graphene? What does it do?
Graphene is said to be a miracle material due to its many beneficial properties. Even in its simplest form, a thin one atom thick substance is the lightest, strongest, thinnest material known to man. When Graphene is used in combination with our Ceramic X3 you will immediately notice a wet, glossy look that enhances reflectivity, reduces water spots, and has both corrosion and UV resistance.
How do you read my license plate?
Say goodbye to RFID stickers. Our LPR camera instantly reads every plate that completes a transaction. Remember this only works if there’s a clean, unobstructed view of your plate. Large frames that cover parts of some characters, scratched or fading, excessive snow, dirt, mud and plates covers will slow down the process.
What happens if I get a new license plate or a new car?
You can change your license plate information online under “Manage My Membership” or you can stop at one of our locations and a team member will be happy to make the change for you.
I have a new credit/debit card; how do I update my account?
