Hey Tiff, how was....
The Service: quick and thorough - I typically get the basic full service clean (inside and outside)
The Location: off of Crenshaw, just before 10W ramp
The Dam$ge: $28 for full service basic + tip
The Reason: gave my daughter chips as a snack
The D'Over?:
Because you asked....

Inexpensive and convenient car wash located conveniently off the 10 and Crenshaw. A basic $9 wash gets you a clear wash, quick service and complimentary vacuum access. They don't have the chicest waiting area or all the bells and whistles when it comes to air fresheners and car wash accessories, but it is a solid stop to get a clear car on the go!

Took my Brandnew vehicle here a month ago to get a wash and noticed a scratch on my hood and passenger door I immediately went to the person in charge that day to tell them about the situation she gave me a damage claim form to fill out and days later I had to call to check on the status of my claim then I had to wait days later for the owner to contact me and when he did he says the lamb shams are soft and don't cause damage to vehicles plus the guy who stands in the front of the wash spraying my car at close range with that water hose didn't wanna take Responsibility for the damages

Car wash left scratches on my car. I know for a fact that my passenger door did NOT have any scratches on it before the wash, because I actually had an estimate done earlier today to remove other minor scratches, and the technician gave me a detailed list of every imperfection on my car and how much it would cost to fix. There was nothing on my passenger door. I let the employees know, in the nicest way possible, that they should clean their brushes or whatever it is that can cause scratches. I did not even ask them for a refund and was being extremely chill about it, but they felt the need to

For a drive thru car wash, this is fine, but the amount of soap and water left on the car after the drive thru requires you to bring your own towel if you don't want your car to look worse than before you bought the wash. They have vacuums, but no air blowers to help remove some of the water left on the car.

Super underrated place. They do both an express wash where you go through a machine, and a handwash option.
The location is easy to get to right off the 10 freeway, and their machine does a much better job cleaning than any gas station carwash I've been to. You're never going to get the same level of clean as a handwash no matter where you go, but as far as machines go this one is good enough. Also, when they say express, they mean express. In and out in 5 minutes. Credit cards accepted. 8 bucks for a basic express wash, 12 for the deluxe one. There was a third more expensive option

Need a quick and clean car wash? This is your place. Car washes range from 7$-32$ All depends on the type of wash you need.
My usual choice is the 13$ wash with wax, air freshener, and a rag to wipe down your car.
You run your car through a machine that does an excellent job, even at the 7$ level.
They have free vacuum as well. I personally always do the drying and vacuum myself but you can pay a little extra to get it all done for you. The staff is great and so helpful.
The wait is never too long. Longest I waited is about 5 mins. The parking is easy too, this is for when you want to dry

I don't mind paying $25 for a car wash, but what I do mind is when the gentleman cleaning my car doesn't care. I have a 4 runner and it should take a bit to fully clean the inside of my car. Yesterday the guy was so incredibly rude and spent less then 5 minutes wiping the inside of my car, I was nice enough to give a tip and as expected got no thank you. I do not recommend this place at all!!! I. Allied the manager and got no apology.. Take your business else where.

Go to the Green Forest Car Wash down the street, they are great!
I'd love to speak with the manager but according to the girl on the phone there isn't one to speak with until tomorrow.
When I drove up, she wouldn't let me decide on a service. She said that, I can't take time to look at it bc someone else could drive up. That would have been a fine comment if someone had drove up. However, I sat there watching the entrance and nobody drove up for 10 + minutes.
Update, they wouldn't let me sit back (in a place where cars could pass) to read the sign that says their services

I just took my new car in and I drive home less than 1.5 miles away and I check my car and it's scratched on the passenger side on a few panels same height. I call but I am told to call tomorrow morning and ask for the manager. I will hopefully have some update tomorrow because this is not what you expect when you take your car to get washed.

I really like the fact that they have a machine wash station for the exterior, it's quick! I was looking for a place that didn't have cars lined up on a Saturday around 1:30pm and this place fit the bill. I chose the $23 wash service.
I'm not sure if machine wash ruins the car's gloss or UV Ray windows but when you haven't had the time to have your new car vacuumed and clean, this place isn't so bad.
The whole cleaning took about 30 minutes.
I have a feeling I'll be back here since it's so fast!

This car wash does a decent job. The first time I'd ever came here my passenger rear view mirror broke going through the wash, smh. I came a second time & they did a decent job, more like $15 worth versus $25 for the All American wash. They're wax shines very minimally, I guess that's from the small amount of wax they use. The crew seem to be really nice guys. I'd come back for the convenience but Red Carpet Car Wash on King does a better job & their waxing has your car looking shinier than this place does. Overall decent car wash.
They did a decent job on my yellowing

Great! Just great! I like that they're open late & conveniently located so I can swing by on my way home from work. And the staff is welcoming & friendly.
It was my first time in a sit-in-the-car drive thru car wash, and while it was a bit claustrophobic for a few seconds, it was quick and efficient. The free vacuum station is handy, too.
And while my Tacoma has lost nearly all it's shine, she's my dream girl. So I'll happily bring her by here frequently for some love and attention.
