We think every conveyor car wash should… But here are some advantages
based on your business model that we have seen.
Windows and body surfaces consistently in excess of 140 CPH.
Create a shine that you can not only see, but feel.
Save money on labor & utilities. Reduce energy usage by requiring less dryer HP.
Incorporate the Dry N’ Shine™ at your wash… And create an unforgettable
experience your customers will rave about.

The DRY N’ SHINE™ is not the first friction drying system ever sold in the car wash industry, but we think it’s the first to live up to the promise of consistently producing dry cars, one after the other, all day long, while using less horse power. We have designed the DRY N’ SHINE™ to overcome the two major obstacles of “old style” friction drying machines.
The first obstacle for the old machines was dirt. Even though the drying machine was supposed to be wiping clean cars, the drying material quickly became contaminated with dirt over a few days time and eventually transferred the dirt back onto the vehicles. The old solution was to rotate two sets of material, requiring constant labor and attention.
The DRY N’ SHINE™ solved the dirty drying material problem with a programmable automatic wash and rinse cycle that cleans and rinses the drying material when the car wash is closed. This feature self-cleans the drying material without any labor or constant attention. Simply set the self-cleaning wash cycle to run during off hours and the DRY N’ SHINE™ machine will be ready to go when your car wash opens in the morning.
The second problem was over-saturated drying material. Old style drying material was an artificial leather shammy, or a very thick, fast-absorbing synthetic material which quickly became saturated and rendered ineffective. Those materials do not dry out quickly enough to continue drying more than a few cars in a row.
The DRY N’ SHINE™ handles the over-saturation issue with a programmable automatic spin dry cycle that dramatically accelerates evaporation in between cars. This feature has the ability to greatly increase the RPM of the drying wheels when they are not in contact with a vehicle, using centrifugal force to push water to the outer diameter of the drying wheel. While the drying wheels are spinning at the higher RPM’s in a spin dry cycle, a plastic bar the length of the drying wheels is forced into contact with the drying material and flings any accumulated water from the outer diameter of the drying wheels. The spin dry cycle allows the drying wheel to always remain in a state of absorption and therefore always effective.
The DRY N’ SHINE™ offers great customer appeal and loads of added value. It is able to effectively remove the last 20% of water droplets still remaining on vehicles directly following a 50 HP forced air dryer at a continuous operating rate in excess of 140 cars per hour without reaching the point of saturation. It is the first mechanical drying machine that can consistently produce dry cars, one after the other, all day long, while quietly using less horse power and offering exciting revenue opportunities.
We think every conveyor car wash should… But here are some advantages based on your business model that we have seen.
The Dry N’ Shine™ Top Wheel can keep up with a steady paced throughput of 100 cars per hour, even if the Dry N’ Shine™ extra service capture rate is as high as 50% of the total cars washed in the same period. At this throughput, the Dry N’ Shine™ will stay effective at drying vehicles’ horizontal surfaces all day long. It can also be programmed to spin dry in between cars.
The Dry N’ Shine™ 3-wheel system can keep up with a steady paced throughput of 100 cars per hour, even if the Dry N’ Shine™
extra service capture rate is as high as 50% of the total cars washed in the same period. At this throughput, the Dry N’ Shine™ will
stay effective at drying vehicles’ horizontal and vertical surfaces all day long. It can also be programmed to spin dry in between cars.
The Dry N’ Shine™ 6-wheel system can keep up with a steady paced throughput of 200 cars per hour, even if the Dry N’ Shine™
extra service capture rate is as high as 50% of the total cars washed in the same period. At this throughput, the Dry N’ Shine™ will
stay effective at drying vehicles’ horizontal and vertical surfaces all day long. It can be programmed to alternate top wheels and
side wheels as it dries car after car. Also, it can also be programmed to spin dry in between cars in order to prevent drying material
from becoming saturated.
