Tried PR Carwash along C. Raymundo. Just tried it out because some bird took the liberty to take a crap on my roof and hood. The carwash early in the morning was just manned by 2 guys. The other one just sitting around doing nothing. What I don't like? They like used the same rug in cleaning my rims and the body. This created some swirls marks on my car. Their plastic divider sticks into my car, probably scratching the surface. Lot's of areas missed when wiping out the car. Specially the roof where the bird poop was on. What I like? None. Probably the worst carwash there is so far.

Guys, anong contact number ng checkered flag?

Thanks

pasensya na medyo mahaba i-kukwento ko, hehe

last august 2012, yung innova ko nagkaroon ng ange ng spray paint nung pinagawa dati yung maliit na bangga sa likod na pinto, ok naman yung gawa nung body repair shop na pinagdalan ko pero halos nagkaron ng ange yung buong sasakyan at di ko yun napansin agad, sobrang gaspang as in tumutunog yung kamay ko pag hinahaplos ko yung body. yung wiper ko tumutunog din sa gaspang pag nag wa-wipe sa salamin. so sabe ko "pati pala salamin ng kotse ko nadamay sa ange."

naisip ko nun dalin sa big berts ortigas pero di ko na dinala dun kase mahal masyado. mas binabayaran ang pangalan

so naghanap ako ng ok na detailing shop na ok. may mga narinig ako na ok na feedbacks sa Rivers Auto detailing along marikina area kaya tinawagan ko at nagtanong at nagpa schedul na din na madami kame kase sinama ko mga ka innova club ko dun para magpa detail. ang sabe nila 7 step detailing daw, so naisip ko ok kase 7 steps at kaya daw nila yun. naisip ko magiging ok paint ng innova ko dun at babalik sa dating kinis at kaya daw nila yung sa innova ko.

10am last september, 8 na innova kameng dumating dun, sinarado yung shop para samin lang, at nagulat ako kase 900 lang price samen for that 7 step detailing with HIP spealant daw. group daw kase kame nagpunta kaya mura. sabe ko, ok sige. tapos ask ko sa kanila dun anu ba ang 7 steps, alam ko 3 step at 5 step lang pero di naman ako masagot anu anu ba yung steps. so ok sinimulan na mga auto namin. yung saken car wash, tapos asphalt removal. tinanong ko kung anu ba ginagamit, sabe ko "boss gaas ba yan?" sabe dun nung isa "boss di kame gumagamit ng gaas dito." tapos kitang kita at amoy na amoy ko naman na gaas yun, so tumahiik na lang ako.

tapos winax na, buff at etc. nilapitan ko unit ko, sabe ko bat magaspang pa din, ganun pa daw muna talaga sa una. tapos sabe ko ok. kase lam ko sa step 1 dapat tanggal na yung gaspang eh. tapos car wash ulit, tapos winax nanaman, tapos nilapitan ko ulit after i buff sabe ko bat magaspang pa din, tapos sabe di pa daw kase tapos, tapos sane ko ok, i tulo lang nila. nagtataka na ko kase pang ilang step na di pa din natatanggal gaspang eh step 1 lang ok na dapat talaga yun eh. tapos car wash ulit, wax and buff, then same result, magaspang pa din and time check it was 4pm na.

tapos napikon na ako nun sabe ko "boss kala ko ba kaya nyo to?" tapos sagot nila di daw sila nagbabawas ng clear coat etc etc. tapos sabe ko "eh anu babayaran ko sa inyo, sabe nyo kaya nyo pero di naman pala?" tapos sabe "ah sige po boss car wash na lang po i charge namin sa inyo". nung natapos nag spray ng QD. kumintab naman at kuminis yung ibang parts pero di talaga ko satisfied kase gusto ko bumalik dating kinis at kintab ng bronze innova ko, sabe nila kaya daw tapos katapus-tapusan di naman pala, nagsayang ako ng isang buong araw ko dun, pero ok na rin, tambay with innova club na naiingit ako kase yung kanila ok tapos saken hind, ugh, haha.

then nung november dinala ko naman sa Checkered Flag along QC with my friend na member altis club na kasama ko din sa riviers na naka innova na ngayon, eh sponsor ng altis club yung checkered flag kaya dun nya ko sinama at kakilala nya may ari. talagang di daw sya mapapahiya saken na babalik kintab at kinis ng innova ko, so sumama ako. dinayo ko yun all the way kase i'm from rizal. dumating kame nung friend ko dun ng 10am pa din. tapos hinawakan yung sasakyan, magaspang, so kayang kaya daw nila pabalikin sa dati yun, mga 6pm daw matatapos, so sabe ko ok, wait namin nung friend ko, tumambay lang kame dun at pinapanood namin. detailer ng friend ko sa checkered flag nag detail sa innova ko. inavail ko dun is 3 step exterior detailing with glass detailing. 2800 dapat babayaran ko lahat lahat pero kilala din ng friend ko may-ari, so diniscountan ako, 2500 na lang binayaran ko for the service.

after step 1, ayun hinawakan ko talagang kinis na ulit ng innova ko at makintab, sa step 1 pa lang yun. tapos ayun all the way gang natapos ang 3 step detailing, sakto 6pm natapos, sobrang kintab ng sasakyan ko, sobrang kinis, parang pwet ng baby pag hinawakan, tapos pati sa glass detailing, di na tumutunog wiper ko pag nag wiper kase wala ng gaspang. BTW, straight meguiars sila.

sobrang satisfied ako sa trabaho, at sakto sila sa time na pinangako nila. nagpa dikit pa ako ng sticker nila sa front windshield ko. ganda ng sticker nila, libre pa. sa mga nakapunta sa MAS last december sa MOA, i'm sure my mga nakita kayo dun na kotse na Checkered Flag ang nag detail, ganun yung sticker nila, maganda. hehe.

binigyan ko ng 100 na tip yung nag detail kase sobrang ganda ng pagkakagawa sa innova ko, ok na ok talaga. kukunin ko na nga din sanang sponsor namin sa innova club kase magaling talaga.

Checkered Flag for me, 10/10. maganda trabaho, sakto pa sa presyo.

Had the car waxed at Big Bert's Ortigas earlier. I like the process they do in that shop. They use separate mitts when cleaning the top and bottom part of the car. They also do this simultaneously, unlike in Detail Studio, where they do the bottom-to-top method, which will make you think that baka madumi na yung mitts nila pagdating sa taas which might scratch your car paint. After washing the car(interior and exterior), they did do tar removal for those cement remnants on my wheel well, then they did claying on the body. After claying, they used a cleaner wax to remove streaks and swirl marks. What I like with their process which I haven't seen in any other car wash is that they employ different types of lighting to check the car around. They got UV lighting and also Halogen lighting. After the cleaner wax, I have them use my Collinite Marque D' Elegance to top it off. It was hand waxed without the use of a polisher, just like how Detail Studio does it. As a bonus, they kinda gave my car an engine wash, they sprayed some degreaser in the engine bay and wiped it off to clean the visible areas of the engine bay. Before rolling of the shop, they got me the usual tire dressing. All this for P800. Sulit na and happy with their service.

What I don't like though was the long queue in Big Berts Ortigas(buti nalang I was there even before they started to open shop). Also there is a tendency to miss a spot just like Detail Studio, well I think most car wash naman are like that, specially if it's the bottom part of the car. Overall, I'd say I'm taking my business to Big Berts na.

Ano package itong service nila bro? Mura. Ilang oras gagawin ?

Hi sirs! Any feedback on Mothers in San Juan? And price range for their services? Thanks

Big Berts Araneta:

Been patronizing Big Bert's Araneta for a year now. Availed its Paint Protect program for my Black Mirage hatch.

I'm quite satisfied with the sessions from the program itself but during my regular visit for car wash I've been very disappointed.

Watermarks are still very visible after the carwash, water from the side mirrors are not being dried up which causes water to drip out when I started driving out (this happens everytime).

Though you really have to give props to their customer lounge which got sofa's and cabled TV + wifi.


I hope they could improve their basic services since their shops is just a minute drive away from home.

Prautotype - Makati

Visited them last weekend to avail wash and wax (collinite) - 420php for small car

I'm more than satisfied with their service, even though there's quite a queue of customers in line they won't hastily wash your car and they still go for their usual wash regimen. Like big berts, they have separate areas for washing and drying which is a huge plus for any car wash shops.

The only thing missing for this shop is a waiting area.

I just had my pearl white car detailed and had paint sealant applied at BNT along Zapote Alabang road Las Pinas. Im really impressed with their workmanship. Lalong lumutang yung pagka pearl ng car ko. Highly recommended!

Meron ba ditong familiar sa Antricks Petron along Buendia and Prautotype sa may Zobel_roxas Manila? Sino mas effective?
