I bought this promotion through Groupon @ $67, usual price is $138. Package include car wash, claying, polish, sealant, rims & tyres shine, interior leather polish and vacuum. Quite a good deal.
This is the groupon deal:
My appointment is 4pm, when I reach there, the staffs are sitting there, nothing to do, wow, looks like they are not so busy on a Sat afternoon.
This is the shop front view:
When I produce my groupon voucher, they quickly start to work and at the same time ask me if I want to top up another $38 for an interior detox using Dettol product. This is to kill the interior germs. I was thinking maybe next time as they told me the whole polish session already need 3 hours. So if add to this service, it will take even longer time.
So they start to wash my car and they told me to wait upstairs, where there is a customer lounge. Wow, not bad. So i go 2nd level and I have the whole room to myself. With TV, magazines, and drinks!
This is the customer waiting area:
So while waiting, I played with my ipad. Once I while I would glance to see the whole process...
A view from the customer waiting room:
After about 1 hour, I was bored, so I go downstair to take a look. And they are almost done, saw them already doing up the interior area. So actually they only took 1.5 hour. While waiting, I chit chat with one of the staff and he told me they used to provide mobile grooming. As business is not very good, so they decided to open a shop. Then upon further discussion, he offered me to buy another package at same price. He told me only left with 2, with no expiry date. I told him I would considered first, he is fine with that and gave me a complimentary car wash worth $5 and the car park ticket as well. Hmm, good service!
Time is 5.45pm, and they are almost done. But I recalled I had forgotten to ask if they can wash my engine bay area as well. They say can be done and should have said earlier as the washing may dirty the paintwork again. But they say can be done and offered me to pay just $10. Of course I quickly say YES!
The boss started to spray some chemical wash to the engine area and with a brush, I see all the stains starts to repels off the surface. Then he use a jet wash spray to wash out the dirt. After that, he use the air gun to dry the area. Finally, he applied a layer of shine and the whole engine look so clean! I am very pleased with their service and paid him $10.
He told me to recommend more customers and I say I will. Bid them goodbye and I feel I am like driving a new car again.
Below are the end result after polish, see the difference:
Before polish: After polish:
The boss told me to wash my car using water will do. Should not use car shampoo as it will wash off the sealant. I noted on that and he told me this sealant effect should last 3 to 6 months. I touch on the surface and it is smooth and slippery. So water or rain water will not stay on the surface and it will roll off. This will not leave watermark on the surface.
This is my engine bay area after wash:
This is the shine on my rims and tyres:
I will monitor and see how the shine will last. If it is good, I might return to their shop again.
