About Car Wash Lighting
Car wash environments destroy standard lighting fixtures within months. Water spray, chemical exposure, and constant humidity require IP66-rated fixtures with sealed housing and corrosion-resistant hardware. Auvolar vapor tight fixtures are specifically designed for wet environments, featuring sealed polycarbonate housing, stainless steel clips, and silicone gaskets that withstand car wash chemicals and high-pressure water.
