Our content is informational only
Everything on this site is general information to help you choose and use car-wash gear. It is not professional detailing advice, and the site is written by an enthusiast rather than a certified detailer or any other licensed professional. It is not a substitute for a professional’s judgment on your specific vehicle. You can read more about who writes the site and how on our about page.
Use gear at your own risk
Pressure washers, chemicals and wash tools can damage a vehicle or injure you if misused. Always read and follow the manufacturer’s instructions and safety warningsfor any product, and use your own judgment. Any technique or recommendation on this site is something you choose to follow at your own risk; we can’t account for your specific equipment, vehicle or conditions.
Affiliate links
This site contains affiliate links, and we may earn a commission when you buy through them at no extra cost to you. This never changes what we recommend. The full explanation is on our affiliate disclosure page.
Accuracy and no warranty
We work hard to keep specs, prices and guidance accurate, and we cite specs to the manufacturer’s listing and correct mistakes when they’re reported. Even so, the site is provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind. We don’t guarantee that every detail is complete, current or error-free — product specs and live prices in particular can change without notice, so always confirm the details on the retailer’s page before buying.
External links
The site links to third-party websites, including retailers. We don’t control those sites and aren’t responsible for their content, products, privacy practices or availability. Following an external link is at your own discretion.
Intellectual property
The writing, rankings and original graphics on this site are ours. You’re welcome to link to our pages and quote a short passage with attribution, but please don’t republish whole pages or pass our work off as your own.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law, Type 5 Marketing LLC and Swirl & Shine are not liable for any damages arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content — including damage to a vehicle, loss or injury — whether the products were bought through our links or not. Your sole remedy if you’re unhappy with the site is to stop using it.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we’ll change the “last updated” date above, and your continued use of the site means you accept the current version.
