Best Car Wash Accessories (Brushes, Nozzles, and More)

The right tools make all the difference between a scratchy, frustrating wash and a smooth, pro-level result. In this guide, we’ll cover the best car wash accessories — from brushes and nozzles to microfiber towels — so you can wash your car faster, safer, and with better results.

Why Car Wash Accessories Matter

Using the wrong tools can scratch your paint, waste product, and make washing take longer. Quality accessories help you clean efficiently and protect your car’s finish. The right setup also saves you money by extending the life of your towels and soaps.

Must-Have Car Wash Accessories

1. Car Wash Nozzles & Foam Cannons

  • High-Pressure Nozzle: A simple upgrade that makes rinsing faster and more effective.
  • Foam Cannon: When paired with The Super Soaper, it blankets your car in thick foam to loosen dirt before you touch the paint.

2. Wash Media

  • Orange Wash Microfiber Towel – Ultra-soft, high-pile microfiber designed for safe contact washing without scratches.
  • Dedicated wash mitts – Another safe option, but must be cleaned regularly to avoid contamination.

3. Drying Towels

  • Massive Drying Towel – Large, absorbent towel that dries your whole car in one pass.
  • Blower (optional) – Helps remove water from crevices, mirrors, and trim.

4. Wheel & Tire Accessories

  • Pure Magic Cleaner with wheel brushes – Safely removes brake dust and browning.
  • Soft wheel brushes – Reach barrels and lug nut areas without scratching.
  • Tire applicators – Like the All Blacked Out Applicators for applying dressings evenly.

5. Interior & Multi-Purpose Accessories

Recommended Starter Setup

If you’re starting fresh, here’s a simple kit that covers everything you need:

  • Foam Cannon + The Super Soaper for pre-soaking.
  • Orange Wash Microfiber Towel for safe contact washing.
  • Massive Drying Towel for drying streak-free.
  • Pure Magic Cleaner with a wheel brush for brake dust removal.
  • All Blacked Out Applicators for tire shine and trim dressing.
  • Everyday Microfiber Towels for interiors and general use.

Pro Tips for Using Accessories

  • Keep separate towels for paint, wheels, and interiors to avoid cross-contamination.
  • Wash microfiber towels properly to maintain softness and absorbency (see microfiber care guide).
  • Always pre-soak with foam before touching paint to minimize scratches.
  • Invest in quality once — cheap accessories wear out quickly and cost more over time.

Final Verdict

With the right accessories, washing your car becomes faster, safer, and more enjoyable. For the best results, pair The Super Soaper with high-quality microfiber towels and wheel care tools from Jimbo’s Detailing.
