What’s the Best Way to Wash My Car?

23/04/2025 by Australian Car Wash Association

Carsales.com.au recently published a great article on the best ways to wash your car, featuring insights from two well-known industry experts — ACWA Members, Robert Sacco from Waves Carwash and Rory Hilton from Car Wash Sales and Advisory.

     

The journalist came across them on social media and reached out to get a mix of perspectives from both a hands-on car wash operator and a business sales specialist.

Robert, who runs multiple Waves Carwash sites, knows firsthand what works when it comes to equipment, customer preferences, and getting the best results.  Rory, with his experience in car wash business sales and acquisitions, sees all kinds of setups, and knows what’s shaping the industry.

The article also highlights the value of an active social media presence — Waves Carwash regularly engages with customers and the industry online, and this visibility led to Carsales.com.au reaching out for expert insights.

Together, Robert and Rory helped bring a real-world, expert take to the article.
