History of Texas 2 Step Waterless Wash & Wax
About Texas 2 Step
Texas 2 Step is a family-owned business committed to innovation and quality. What began as a solution to clean aircraft without harsh chemicals evolved into the creation of a waterless wash & wax product designed to clean a variety of non-porous surfaces without the need for water.
In 2018, Scott Bechtel, entrepreneur and owner of Car Wrap City, acquired the product formula and expanded its reach beyond aviation. Under Scott's leadership, Texas 2 Step introduced specialized products like Wrap Care and Motorcycle Care to meet the growing demand for vinyl wrap and motorcycle maintenance. The company's waterless solution is free from oils, petroleum distillates, and silicones, making it safe and effective on surfaces such as matte finishes and Harley Davidson Denim coatings. Its gentle formula emulsifies contaminants, offering a simple cleaning process that doesn't require water.
In 2020, Scott tragically passed away at the age of 44, but his entrepreneurial spirit and dedication to charitable causes continue to inspire the company. A U.S. Air Force KC-10 Crew Chief, Scott was deeply committed to organizations like Women Rock Inc., Shriner's Hospitals for Children, and the Gary Sinise Foundation. To honor his memory and carry on his vision, his wife Tatiana, alongside cousins Todd and Kris Bechtel, took over the company, rebranding it and expanding its operations into North Carolina.
Today, Texas 2 Step continues to thrive under the leadership of Tatiana, Todd, and Kris Bechtel. The company has expanded its range of care solutions and now includes products for auto, motorcycle, watercraft, and car wraps. Texas 2 Step's products are now supported by the kayak community, as well as Harley Davidson and major auto dealerships. The products are available in stores in Texas, Michigan, Wisconsin, and North Carolina. The brand remains committed to quality and user safety, ensuring that innovative, responsible vehicle care solutions continue to be at the heart of the company's mission.
