Multi-profit centers are nothing new to the carwash industry, but new types of them are sprouting up all the time. Pet washes, laundromats, fast lubes, dry cleaners, self-storage facilities, coffee shops, c-stores, gas pumps and ice vending are becoming common, but some other carwashes are going taking a completely different route.

For instance, in Iowa City, IA, Doug and Laura Warner took full-service to the next level with their carwash, the Twin Image Spa Salon, by joining it up with their other business venture, an upscale beauty salon.
