However, the high volume of vehicle traffic created a bottleneck in the wash bay, causing frustrating delays, stretched staff and longer turnaround times.  

The detailing team struggled to keep up, with average wash times pushing out workflows and causing stress across the operation.  They needed a faster, more streamlined solution that could increase throughput without compromising quality.

The Solution
After assessing the dealership’s needs and daily wash volume, SPITWATER designed and installed a dual-unit system to boost efficiency and cut downtime:

  • Two SPITWATER HP12-110E GT Pressure Cleaners: High-powered electric units designed for frequent, daily use. Deliver consistent pressure for fast, effective vehicle rinsing.

  • Ceiling Mounted 360° Wash Booms: Keeps hoses off the ground and allows easy access around vehicles. Increases safety and operator freedom of movement during cleaning.

  • Rollover Foam Lance Setup: Allows quick switch between foam and rinse with a flick of the wrist. Eliminates the need for separate pre-spraying tools or chemicals.
The Results

The transformation was immediate and significant:

  • Average wash time per vehicle reduced from 10 minutes to 5
  • No more bottlenecks. The wash bay capacity effectively doubled
  • Stress reduced for detailers, improving team morale and efficiency
  • Streamlined service and delivery processes, with improved vehicle turnover

Why It Worked

The combination of high-performance SPITWATER pressure cleaners and clever accessories like the 360° wash boom and rollover foam lance made all the difference. 

This integrated system eliminates unnecessary steps and delivers faster, cleaner results with minimal operator effort.

With two units now in operation, Brisbane City Automotive can comfortably meet service demand without delays, keeping customers happy and staff moving.
