Embodiments determine historical geographic travel data of a vehicle over a contaminant exposure time period that is inclusive of a present time; identify a contaminant that is likely located on an external surface of the vehicle as a function of historic meteorological and terrain data of the historical geographic travel data of a vehicle over a contaminant exposure time period; select a cleaning solution that is appropriate for use in cleaning the identified contaminant from the external surface of the vehicle; and drive a vehicle wash system nozzle to use the selected cleaning solution to wash the identified contaminant from the external surface of the vehicle.
