i have been to sparkling car wash, they are good for their cheapest wash job ($62 for in and out? it was very very clean)
a friend then tried their $2xx detail job, result wasn't so impressive...have to get my detailer to re-do partial of the car because they overheated the clearcoat as far as i remember...
i think some guys take it to downtown autospa but i usually just stick with my friend who does high end trade in vehicles / show car for a stealership nearby...he is not cheapest for sure but so far i love his work...
You can tell the difference, I can say it's better then nothing..but, when you touch your car, the dirt still there...
but it is a nice way to wash your car in the winter time...
However, I will suggest to use those touch less car washing...those big brushes washing will scratch the car....somehow...
Dragon, you can try Oasis, 5300 block Kingsway eastbound pass Royal Oak. Wash includes vacumning and wipping dashboard. Last time I went March is $12. You got your money worth. There is also one in Kingsway & King Edward around the same price, but I haven't been there for awhile. Remind you don't leave precious or money inside the car when you use human / human assist car wash service.
