CertaPro Painters® of Central and Lower Bucks County: Transforming Luv Car Washes with a Vibrant Rebrand

About the Project:

  • Locations: Exton, Frazer, Coatesville, Warminster, King of Prussia, West Norriton, Pottstown, Pennsylvania
  • Date: October 2023
  • Duration: Approximately one week per car wash, depending on size

Project Description: The project involved a full exterior repaint of multiple Luv Car Wash locations across Central and Lower Bucks County as part of a branding update. The scope included painting EIFS walls, metal soffits, fascia, coping, doors, curbs, bollards, vacuum cannisters, piping, metal roofs, fabric canopies, metal canopies, stone walls, and parking lines.

Scope of Work: To meet the new branding requirements, CertaPro Painters® utilized a variety of high-quality products tailored to different surfaces:

  • SuperPaint-Acrylic Latex for EIFS walls
  • Sher-Cryl HPA-Acrylic for metal components like soffits, fascia, and doors
  • Loxon XP-Latex for breathable masonry coating on stone walls
  • A100 for vibrant pink curbs
  • ProPark Waterborne Traffic Paint for quick-dry parking lines
  • Multi-Surface Acrylic for fabric canopies and plastic vacuum cannisters
  • Bond Plex for durable metal roof coatings
  • Pro-Cryl Primer for all metal components requiring a primer

Special Challenges: The major challenge was executing the project while the car washes remained operational. This required meticulous planning to manage painting around constant vehicle traffic. Special techniques were necessary, such as brush and roll instead of spraying to avoid overspray on vehicles and ensure safety. Night shifts were implemented for critical areas like entrances and exits to avoid disrupting business operations. Additional complexities included preparing and painting tricky substrates like fabric awnings and factory-coated metals.

The Result: The project was a resounding success, with all locations sporting a fresh, new look that aligns with Luv Car Washes’ rebranding goals. The use of specialized coatings and meticulous application techniques ensured long-lasting results, even in high-wear areas such as entrances and vacuum stations. The project demonstrated CertaPro Painters® of Central and Lower Bucks County’s ability to handle complex commercial painting projects efficiently while overcoming operational challenges.

Conclusion: This case study underscores CertaPro Painters® of Central and Lower Bucks County’s commitment to excellence, showcasing their capability to deliver high-quality results in dynamic commercial environments. The team’s expertise in managing logistics and applying specialized coatings has reinforced their reputation as a leader in the painting industry, capable of exceeding client expectations under challenging conditions.
