What is Polymer Protectant?
Our super polymer formula is a water-based product that contains premium organic soaps, surfactants and lubricating agents, plus a special polymer formula. The protectant contains extensive cross linked polymers, which make it extremely effective as a car wax or glaze. With proper application the product lifts dirt from the vehicle by emulsification. The product surrounds dirt molecules, lifting them from the paint surface even before you start to wipe it way. At the same time the application process initiates the cross chain polymer linking process that results in an extremely shiny, highly protective glaze finish. All this happens very rapidly due to the balance of ingredients within the product itself and it's highly biodegradable.

Every one of our services include this super polymer protectant! It will last any where from 2 - 4 weeks depending on driving and weather conditions.


What is a 'Quickie' service?
Well, besides the obvious, our Quickie service includes the following -

1) Hand washing and polishing of the chrome, rubber, vinyl and painted surface of the vehicle with our super polymer waterless car wash protectant.
2) All tires and rims are kleened free of brake dust and dirt.
3) All the tires get a Tire Shine protectant that guards against UV damage and is specially designed to give you a clean, high-shine look.
4) All the rims are polished with a protectant, to help aide in preventing damage caused by road grime and brake dust.
5) Last but not least, your outside windows are kleened to a high shine with our streak free process of kleening them.

The 'Quickie' service protection will last any where from 2 - 4 weeks depending on what Mother Nature throws at it during that time. The more this service is provided the better protection you'll get. We recommend getting this service done at least twice a month.

What is the Double Wax Process?
After hand kleening and polishing with the Polymer Protectant, mentioned above, we follow it up with another great product that contains 2 extremely effective waxes, Carnauba and Montan. Plus, it also has more super polymer protectant within it. It has 1% light abrasives, which helps remove light oxidation and water spots from most older vehicles and leaves behind a deep, rich shine that lasts for months.

The Double Wax protection will last between 3 - 6 months, depending on driving and weather conditions. We recommend a Quickie service at least once a month between the Double Wax process for added protection and general maintenance of your vehicles surface. All Deluxe service packages include the Double Wax process.

What is the Triple Wax Process?
This process involves adding a hand applied polish to the vehicles painted surface after kleening it with our super polymer protectant. This includes a highly advanced sunscreen, Ultra-Guard™ UV(40), to protect against shrinking and fading caused by sun and ultra-violet light. Once that is accomplished we follow it up by adding our Carnauba and Montan wax product, mentioned above. This adds many more months of protection to the surface and gives your vehicle a shine all other vehicles will be jealous of!

The Triple Wax protection will last for 6+ months, depending on driving and weather conditions. We recommend a Quickie service at least once a month between the Triple Wax process for added protection and general maintenance of your vehicles surface. All Royale service packages include the Triple Wax process.

Will any Tri-Kleen service scratch my vehicle?
The short answer is NO! The products we use have been thoroughly tested throughout the world and under many different circumstances. Our services are regularly used to kleen and protect many luxury cars. The cross linked polymers, organic soaps, surfactants and lubricating agents work together to emulsify and encapsulate the dirt, which lift it from the surface of the vehicle even before we use our gentle microfiber kleening cloths to wipe it away. All of our Tri-Kleen services are totally scratch-free and guaranteed. If you're not 100% completely satisfied with the final result we'll refund every dollar of the service costs.

How long will a Tri-Kleen service take?
Our services vary from 60 minutes to up to 6 hours or more. The determining factors for the allotted time will depend on 5 factors -
1) The level of service you require
(Quickie, Deluxe, Royale)
2) The size of your vehicle
(compact, midsize, small SUV/mini-van, large SUV/pickup)
3) The amount of dirt, bugs and tar on the vehicle
4) The number of employee's we're able to deploy to your location
5) The number of A-la-carte options you choose

A Tri-Kleen service person will be able to give you a more accurate estimate of time it will take, once we either, talk with you on the phone or see the vehicle in person.


What are the environmental benefits?
There is a substantial environmental advantage to using the products we use and the services we provide:

  • No water used (except a minimal amount to manufacture the products) Considering that between 35 and 110 gallons of water are used with conventional commercial car washing and home car washing, waterless products represent a great advantage. 
  • No run-off: the product stays on our microfiber kleening towels, which then get washed with water that is eventually treated with the rest of the grey-water that goes to the local water treatment plant. Conventional car washing, on the other hand, contaminates surface waters as well as soil with phosphates, oil, grease, dust and lead as the water goes down the storm drain into rivers, lakes and oceans.
  • Eco-friendlier is better than not eco-friendly at all. The products are bottled in plastic bottles that are the most widely recycled plastics on the market.

Do you also offer interior kleening services?
Yes, we do! Head to the 'Services' area of our website for more information.
