Auto Detailing Service, Car Washes
This is for wax ONLY!
I explained the manager what I wanted:
wanted hand waxed and NO buffer because I wanted the sealer Nu Finish Polish. (this is the orange bottle that have been around over 30 years or longer that I have used and it works)
I supplied Nu Finish
I wanted a 'professional job' and just the wax, not detailed because the car is just 3 days old.
I wanted the rims (wheels) waxed (on the Nu Finish polish) not the stuff they spray on.
I told the manger what I wanted, and showed him how the bottle should be instruction to put it on the car. (he said that they do use that product and know how to use it)
What I got (or did not get):
He used a air buffer. I talked to the manger about the buffer and he said that is what they use. I looked at it but I should have stopped but I didn't. looked it was safe on the car. He missed a lot of the car was around the lights, the black chrome, windows, licence tag, under the handle, missed the whole front around the lights etc, under the rail at the top (it's a Toyota RAV4) and the painted rail. He did not wax the wheels (rims) but sprayed something on it and wiped them. He missed every place around the black chrome, seals on windows, moonroof etc.
I showed him where he missed spots and he said that he is finished. I just paid it(should not have) and left. never again.
the wash looks ok, but for a wax job is the worst one i have ever had. you can take a dry cloth and 'drag' around the finish and 'feel' it is slick or drag when the wax was on it. I had to wax it myself when i got home. Lot of spots missing on the car.
I think they don't really want to wax cars, want just moving a lot of cars for washing. The price was really low ($65) but it took 3 hours. 3 hours, 2 hours waiting after an appointment and 45 mins waxing and 15 mins arguing. I waxed it again myself and took only 45 mins!

They do a decent job. I got the #1 package and paid an extra 8.00 for interior wipe down. Only problem is they half way do an interior wipe down. Every time if have them do it I have to go to the manager because it was either not done at all, or poorly done to where you can easily see dust. As far as the outside of the vehicle they do a decent enough job but every time it have to wipe it down again to get rid of water spots.

This car wash is great. They do a very good job all the way around - we have a golden retriever that sheds quite a bit, and he was in my car for a 2 hour car ride. I took it to them and got the basic package for inside/out, and they got all the dog hair up. The automatic wash is very thorough, and the team that cleaned the windows and dried the outside did a good job.

They do great job for what it is. They wash and dried my truck. Saves me time during the week. It's not perfect but it's 12 bucks. If you want it perfect may want to get a detail done.

This is a car wash in Lorton VA across from Shoppers. It looks nice, but the manager or individual at the register has a nasty attitude. His workers do poor work, especially at the beginning of the line where they are supposed to prep the car before it goes into the car wash. I had an arguement with one of the workers because he walked away when i asked why he did not pre-spray my car like the 5 previous had been...not sure he understood me exactly, but he waved me off and walked away...
Not a good place, not a friendly place...don't go here.
