Before the test

Make the inspection areas easier to see

We clean agreed exterior, wheel, arch, chassis and safely accessible underbody areas before a commercial vehicle is presented for MOT. What we can reach depends on the vehicle, its clearance and the safe working space available.

This is cold-water pressure washing, not steam cleaning or mechanical preparation. We use commercial pressure washing equipment and suitable cleaning products, including our own TFR where appropriate, to remove accumulated dirt from the agreed areas. Roadworthiness and the test result remain the operator’s responsibility.

Preparation sequence

Arrange the wash before the test

Confirm the vehicle, wash position and priority areas early enough for us to complete the work before the inspection appointment.

03

Cold-water pressure washing is directed at the agreed exterior and accessible inspection areas.
