Smart Wash Car Wash opens second location
QUEENSBURY, N.Y. — According to an article on The Post Star’s website, a second Smart Wash Car Wash location has opened at 708 Quaker Rd., but this location is a more advanced wash than its predecessor.
The Queensbury location features an automated kiosk that allows customers to pay by credit or debit card as well as to choose their wash option; foam brushes that, according to manager Crystal Greenough, clean better than the cloth brushes many automated carwashes use; hi-tech and high-powered vacuums; and a laser light show inside the wash, where even the soaps are multicolored to match the lights, the article stated.
“The kids love it. You get a light show as you go through,” said Greenough.
Smart Wash was converted from an old Adirondack Car Wash and cost $1.2 million to renovate over the last year, the article continued.
Smart Wash gave away five days of free carwashes to celebrate its opening, the article noted.
“The reaction was great. We had a lot of people sign up for monthly packages even with the free washes,” Greenough said.
