Northville, MI – May 1, 2026 – OPW Vehicle Wash Solutions (OPW VWS), part of Dover Fueling Solutions, today announced that several of its iconic brands will be exhibiting an array of industry-leading vehicle wash equipment in booth 901 at The Car Wash Show, which will be held from May 11-13, 2026, at the Music City Center in Nashville, TN.

“The Car Wash Show is one of the biggest events for the vehicle wash industry, and we’re excited to display an all-star lineup of some of our biggest products,” said Dave Dougherty, Vice President/General Manager of OPW Vehicle Wash Solutions. “We’re looking forward to sharing the capabilities of our legendary vehicle wash brands to show how we’re helping move the industry forward.”

The lineup of OPW VWS technologies that will be on display during the show includes:

PDQ Manufacturing

  • LaserWash® 360 Plus In-Bay Automatic Vehicle Wash System: The LaserWash 360 Plus uses Smart 360 Technology that allows the wash to respond to dynamic conditions in the bay. The system provides better wash coverage and optimized chemical-application timing. The Smart 360 Arch Control System eases entry into the wash bay by moving around the vehicle for more coverage. The Smart 360 Drying System offers a FlashDry service that reduces basic drying time. All Smart 360 features can be managed through the system’s Smart 360 networking capabilities. The Laser Wash 360 Plus can also be outfitted with the LaserGlow Arch, the most advanced lighting option currently available to the industry. The eye-catching lighting of the LaserGlow Arch can attract potential customers from the street or parking lot, becoming a 24/7 marketing tool.

Belanger

  • Legend By Belanger™ Tunnel Wash Series: All Legend By Belanger wash components are designed for flexible configurations, enabling operators to create wash solutions that best meet their customers' needs. This allows operators to craft a wash system that appeals to drivers seeking a safe, efficient and memorable wash experience that delivers a reliably clean vehicle.
  • Kondor Flight Touchless In-Bay Automatic Wash System: Released in late 2024, the Kondor Flight one- and two-arm touchless IBA system builds on the success of the original Kondor while adding a new look with a sleeker wash carriage, brighter strategically-placed lights to maximize visual appeal, and a new revenue-generating optional OverGlow Hi-Gloss Application cleaning system, all supported by a rust-free stainless-steel carriage frame.
  • TruTrak™ Belt Conveyor: The all-new TruTrak belt conveyor features an innovative, patent-pending design with a revolutionary wide track to accommodate modern performance tires, while reducing downtime with simple operation and user-friendly functionality.

Innovative Control Systems (ICS)

  • WashCloud®: The newest digital platform from ICS brings all relevant customer, equipment, and site data, like number of washes, subscribers, LPR information, revenue per wash and churn rates into one easy-to-read dashboard. WashCloud serves as a central data hub for the car wash, presenting all information in a straightforward way. The dashboard is accessible from anywhere, enabling operators to make informed, strategic decisions about marketing, promotions, memberships, and on-site resource utilization.
  • WashTab®: Boost membership sales and CSAT with one convenient tablet. WashTab connects employees with customer-specific data from the moment they enter the site until they leave, allowing staff to complete sales, deliver a more personal customer experience, collect feedback, manage damage claims and promote the wash from anywhere.

Turtle Wax PRO

  • Pro OneShot PreSoak: Designed for flexibility and performance, OneShot provides operators with an efficient, cost-effective chemistry solution that uses only 1 oz. of chemical per car in an IBA setting. This allows car washes to wash 3x as many cars per container.
  • Turtle Wax Pro Ambassador Program: A first of its kind in commercial car washing, the Turtle Wax Pro Ambassador Program is designed to help wash operators identify and develop key frontline employees into brand advocates and stronger site-level contributors. This helps create operator value through higher revenue per car, improved employee retention, stronger leadership and improved wash consistency.

In addition to the products on display, the sales and engineering teams from all OPW VWS brands will be on-site, giving visitors the perfect opportunity to talk with experts on how to improve their car wash sites and drive repeat business and improved profits.

“OPW VWS has a full suite of vehicle wash technologies to offer, and our goal is to help car wash businesses find new levels of success,” Dougherty added. “This year’s Car Wash Show will reinforce our position as the single-source provider of reliable, top-of-the-line wash equipment and systems.”
