Our Services

Professional solutions tailored to your specific needs — delivered with expertise and care.

Our Exterior Wash service is the perfect choice when your car needs a thorough outside clean without the full detail. We start with a gentle hand foam bath using pH-balanced soaps to safely lift dirt and grime. Then, our technicians hand-wash every panel, followed by a meticulous rinse and hand-dry with microfiber towels to prevent scratches. We pay extra attention to wheels, wheel wells, and door jambs. The finish is a brilliant, streak-free shine that protects your paint. Ideal for busy driver...

Our Deluxe Wash takes the exterior wash a step further, offering a deeper clean and added protection. In addition to the full hand wash and dry, we include a hand-applied liquid wax that enhances gloss and leaves a hydrophobic barrier. We also clean all exterior glass inside and out, plus dress your tires for a like-new black finish. Every crevice, badge, and grille is carefully brushed. This service is perfect for weekly or bi-weekly maintenance in Chicagoland's diverse weather. You will drive...

The Ultimate Wash is our most popular full-service hand wash, designed for drivers who want the best of both worlds: a brilliant exterior and a refreshed interior. It includes everything from the Deluxe Wash plus a thorough interior vacuuming of seats, carpets, and cargo areas. We wipe down all dashboard, console, and door panels with UV-protectant cleaners, clean interior glass, and deodorize the cabin. Your wheels receive a deep clean, and we apply a premium sealant for weeks of protection. Th...

Our Interior Detailing service is a deep restorative clean for your vehicle's cabin. We begin with a comprehensive vacuum, including under seats and in hard-to-reach crevices. Next, we steam-clean carpets, upholstery, and fabric seats to remove stains and odors. Leather surfaces are gently cleaned and conditioned to prevent cracking. We meticulously clean every vent, button, and storage compartment, finishing with UV-protectant on plastics and a streak-free glass clean. This service is essential...

Ceramic coating is the ultimate paint protection for car enthusiasts and owners who want years of gloss and easy maintenance. Our professional-grade ceramic coating bonds with your factory paint, creating a semi-permanent, hydrophobic layer that repels water, dirt, and UV rays. The process begins with a thorough decontamination wash, followed by paint correction if needed (see our separate paint correction service). We then apply the coating in a controlled environment, allowing it to cure to a...

Went to Neon today for my third car wash, this one just the exterior, and more carefully watched their crew this time. What I observed was meticulous, thorough work and a friendliness when we interacted. I have found that I can get in and out more quickly on a weekday. Well done, men.

Went there on a cloudy Sunday morning when all the other car washes decided to close. The owner was hands on the line and made sure they didn’t miss anything. I was nervous taking my GTR there but they used a fresh mitt and fresh microfibers to wash and dry the car. Went to go fill up a fresh tank of gas and the car looked amazing!!!

I can’t say enough good things about these guys at Neon Hand Car Wash! I’ve been to plenty of hand car washes in the city and suburbs but no one provides the level of service like these guys do. They make sure their $30 ultimate wash is like a full detail. They’re super friendly too offering advice on how to maintain the car and recommendations for mechanic shops. I’ll gladly be bringing my car here all the time and suggest everyone else does too!

I must confess that I was not aware, nor was I fully attentive while driving, but upon noticing the situation, I promptly executed a U-turn, and I must say, the interior of the establishment is quite appealing, with a spacious and open layout. I would like to express my appreciation for their service in cleaning my car, and I would certainly recommend a visit, as they utilize appropriate equipment for the task.

I don’t typically leave negative reviews, but this experience left me genuinely irritated and confused. I paid for the Ultimate Wash for $30, including the additional $8 up-charge for a 3-row SUV. At that price point, I expect the basics to be handled without having to supervise the process myself. Before the service began, I confirmed at the point of sale that the car seats would be vacuumed. They assured me they would be. Not only were the seats not vacuumed, I had to specifically ask for a vacuum to do it myself. When someone finally came over, the effort was careless at best. In the process of rushing through it, they managed to suck up my child’s toy due to the half-hearted attempt. I also had to ask for the trunk to be vacuumed — which is supposed to be included in the Ultimate package. That should not require a reminder. To make matters worse, the driver-side lower door panel was left visibly dirty, as if no one even bothered to check whether it was clean before considering the job finished. When I asked for the vacuum, I was initially ignored — even after making direct eye contact with staff. It wasn’t until it became clear I wasn’t leaving that someone acknowledged me. That level of disregard is frustrating and unnecessary. I understand there is new ownership, and the individual who appears to be the owner comes across as pleasant. However, the actual cleaning staff performance was extremely disappointing. If I’m paying premium pricing, I expect premium effort. Places like Elston Hand Car Wash may charge a bit more, but at least they take pride in their work and don’t require the customer to manage the detail process themselves. To top it off, when you call the business, no one answers. You can leave a voicemail, but no one calls back. Overall, this was not an experience that matches the price point or the promises made at the register. I hope management takes this seriously and improves the quality control, because right now, it’s simply not there. I’m all for supporting local business but support has to be earned!

I love this car wash. It’s affordable, they do a wonderful job, and I always leave satisfied. That being said, they really should change their opening hours to 9:30am during the week because I have come here at 9am three different times, and had to call to ask if they were going to open, and there is always a “10-15 min something happened on the highway” response, but if you are from here, you know Chicago traffic is insane. They should do themselves a favor and change M-TH opening hours to 9:30 to account for “something happened on the highway” and keep opening hours F-SUN 9am because they are always here on time on the weekend. It’s Thursday 8/28 and it’s 9:20am and they are still not open. Which is really inconsiderate of customers who check their website and Google listing and see they open at 9am
