• Reliable by Design: Ask any Petit owner—we’re built for low maintenance and long-lasting performance. 
• Maintenance-Free Sealed Hypoid Gearboxes Designed for maximum efficiency, these gearboxes produce less heat and minimize moisture buildup—delivering consistent, reliable performance without the need for regular maintenance. 
• Optimized Oscillation Technology Each part of the vehicle is washed at least twice per pass, ensuring thorough, high-quality cleaning with every cycle. 
• Extended Motor Lifespan with VFD Integration By incorporating Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs), we significantly reduce electrical consumption while simultaneously extending the operational life of our motors. 
• Unparalleled R&D Commitment At Petit, we don’t guess—we test. We own and operate our own car washes, allowing us to rigorously trial every improvement in real-world conditions for 1–2 years before implementing permanent changes. 

At Petit Auto Wash, we hold the patent for controlling spray impact on horizontal vehicle surfaces—delivering unmatched cleaning consistency from low-profile sports cars to tall pickup trucks. Our system uses precision-engineered, narrow-angle nozzles that maintain a tight, focused spray stream. Combined with larger nozzle openings, we generate bigger water droplets that resist atomization.

 The result? Greater impact at longer distances, superior cleaning power, and fewer rinse passes needed.

 As fellow car wash owners, we know the industry inside and out. We understand your challenges, your goals, and what it takes to run a successful operation—because we’ve been there too.  

Our system uses significantly less water than the competition—by design. Faster wash speeds mean shorter cycle times and less water per vehicle. Intelligent nozzle control automatically shuts off upper side sprays for smaller vehicles, reducing unnecessary water use. Our high-efficiency oscillating spray pattern ensures complete coverage in a single pass—no need for multiple rinse cycles.

 The result? A cleaner vehicle with less water, lower utility costs, and a more sustainable operation.
