Default New Place For A Great Car Wash - Peninsula

I live in Redwood City and was taking my car to Auto Pride to be washed but they really pissed me off and broke stuff on my S!! I have boycotted Auto Pride on Woodside Rd in RWC.

Where is a great place to get my car washed and detailed?

Thank you!

I love washing my own car but sometimes you need to take it somewhere or you just don't have the time to wash it yourself. I am such a perfectionist that I spend 3 hours washing it!

i would wash it on your own...must places don't care and they'll probably put swirl marks all over your car.

Not to mention that most car wash places use high pressure water sprays, which are hell on the seals of the softtop and windows.

i skipped that step and just washed at home to create my own custom swirl marks

but yeah, i wouldn't trust anyone else to detail my car. if you're really interested, i'd say just find a friend who has a buffer and all the right products and just do a detail day w/ them. i'm gonna do swirl removal attempt #2 probably this weekend w/ my friend.

Dont let other places wash your car!! They never do a good enough job and leave swirl marks Bring it to my place in campbell. I just finished with mine, I'll be detailing Arrmand's next. You can bring it down with his and I might be able to bust out both in a day. I'll have those S's looken better than brand new! We could make a detail day out of it.
