Newark's Best Car Wash & Detailing
Your Newark Car Wash & Detailing
Looking for a car wash in Newark near the University of Delaware? Splash Car Wash (formerly White Glove) is at 1006 S. College Ave, minutes from campus on Route 896 and in the daily traffic that leaves your car coated in road grime and brake dust. Add road salt and brine from October through March, a layer of pollen every spring, and tar and bug splatter in the summer heat, and keeping a car clean in Newark takes some upkeep. Our express car wash pulls the grime off in a few minutes, before it sets into your clear coat. Our full service car wash adds the inside, with our team vacuuming the carpets and mats, cleaning the glass, and wiping down the dash and console while you wait. When your car is due for more than a wash, our car detailing in Newark handles the deeper clean inside and out. Unlimited car wash plans through Max Pass cover as many visits as you want for one flat monthly rate, which pays for itself in about two washes. We're open seven days a week and no appointment is needed, so stop in and visit us today to experience the Splash shine.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer unlimited car wash memberships in Newark?
Yes, our Max Pass car wash membership lets you wash as often as you want for one flat monthly rate with plans starting at $25 per month.
How long does an express car wash take?
Most express car washes take under five minutes making them easy to fit in for busy drivers in Newark.
What is the difference between an express wash and a full service wash?
An express wash cleans the outside of your vehicle and has you back on the road in minutes. A full service wash adds the interior, including a complete vacuum, cleaned windows, and a wipe down of the dash and console.
Do you offer undercarriage cleaning to remove road salt?
Yes, select car wash packages include an undercarriage rinse that clears road salt, sand, and debris from the underbody, which matters after a South Jersey winter.
How often should I wash my car in Deleware?
Most vehicles should be washed every one to two weeks to clear dirt, pollen, road salt, and debris that can damage paint and reduce fuel economy. During New Jersey winters, washing more often helps protect your paint and undercarriage from salt damage.
