The Corrosion-Proof, Full-Vision,
Rolling Door for Car Washes.
The Clear-Shield offers full visibility, wind protection and reliability—without corrosion. It protects customers and vehicles outside the wash bay from sprays due to windy conditions. The clear UV-resistant vinyl panels provide natural light and the ability to see inside the bay. The door also helps inhibit freezing by dampening winds that pass through heated bays.
The Clear-Shield is safe, low maintenance, and it can take a hit. The soft, selfrepairing, Break-Away™ bottom bar won’t hurt customers or damage cars if accidentally hit. After popping out, the bar automatically reinserts itself into the
guides and resumes normal operation.Wind Control
