Mall Carwashes

[KrisKros]

I had my car washed once at Robs. Wash and wax cost me a whopping P350...and Without vacuum! Usually with P350 at a regular carwash place, I get a wash, wax, tireblack, vacuum, removal of carpets, a wipe down on interior plastic. When I got home, I noticed that they didn't remove some wax around the door area, so I had to do it myself. tsk tsk tsk

Kulang kasi sa liwanag yung lighting sa loob ng mga parking building. Unless they bring a strong light source with them, talagang meron silang ma-mi-miss na wax spots.

been in megamall last weekend then on my way up to the parking lot sa taas may kumakaway na wash boy ito yung mobile carwash boy na mahal maningil sa simpleng carwash. so yun nga ingnore ko kc bagong linis naman yung auto bakit pa nya kami tatawagin? so nag park kmi agad then immediately pasok agad sa mall para makarami. pag balik namin nakita ko ulit yung carwash boy na tumawag sa kin kani-kanina lang na may nililinis na sasakyan sa tabi ko and guess what, ginawa pang tuntungan ng paa nya yung gulong ng auto ko para makasampa at mapunasan yung ford explorer na katabi ko. tsk tsk tsk. sinaway ko sabay tawag ng guard. well, alam ko wala rin namang kapupuntahan reklamo ko and late na rin naman,so check ko na lang kung nagasgasan ako ng mokong nung nakita kong wala naman umuwi na kami ng anak at asawa ko. another thing is medyo takaw gasgas auto yung mobile carwash nila yung iba kc pilit sinisingit in between ng mga sasakyan para malapit sa nililinisan nila.

Kaya ako, sa malayo pumaparada kahit na maglakad pa ng malayo...

Mahirap makatabi ang mga nagpapalinis ng sasakyan.... Siruradong may talsik ng tubig ang sasakyan mo....

I never had my car washed with those mobile carpark carwash boys.

1. they charge too much. P60 to P80 car washes are available around the city.
2. they do not do a good job at cleaning your car. Partly due to poor lighting.
3. they sometimes damage your car's paint because they use only a small amount of water with a towel/car-rag to remove the dirt.

Tsk, tsk.

Balak ko pa naman sanang pasukin ang ganyang biz, kaso sira na pala kagad image nila.

Definitely kung ako magpapatakbo nyan, hindi ganyan. Either mag set-up ako ng isang portion sa lot na dun lang magpapark ang customer na gustong magpalinis, or magset-up ng tent dun sa spot ng kotse na lilinisin at me takip na trapal sa sides para protection sa mga adjacent na sasakyan.

Actually sa ibang bansa mukang successfull ang mga ganyan at maganda ang image sa tao.

At me alam naman ako sa detailing kahit pano so alam ko ang mga no-no sa actual na paglinis. Pede ang no water kasi me na try na akong product, kaso mahal un chemical at d feasible for business. Mukang d mababawi unless lahat ng kotse sa isang malaking mall magpapalinis, lol!

Napansin ko lang, in every parking space sa mga malls, ang dameng nag-o-offer ng ganitong service. Uniformed attendants waiting for people to park their cars. Assist ka nila makahanap ng parking slot tapos offeran ka ng car wash.

Sometimes they annoy me. Alukin ba naman ako na magpa-car wash e ang linis-linis at ang kintab-kintab pa ng tsikot ko. Weird! Ok sana kung mura e! Kaso ang mahal mahal. Saka I have doubts kung nalilinis nila ng mabuti yung kotse e kakapiranggot na tubig lang ang dala nila?!

I dunno but you guys but have you tried their services?

sa SM Carpark nakita ko kung pano sila maglinis isang galon lang ng tubig ginagamit nila kamay nila pinangtatanggal sa alikabok then punas na ng chamois

[rsscertified]

sir ang alam ko hindi maganda ung way they wash your car.. sa totoong car wash ka lang sir mababantayan mo pa..

[Galactus]

Minsan ko lang sinubukan, sa SM Megamall, kasi talagang marumi yung sasakyan. They charged me P135 ata.

I wasn't impressed, kasi hindi naman ganun kalinis. Also, they applied tire wax to only 3 of the wheels, nakalimutan yung isa, kaya ang sagwa tuloy tingnan.

[ILuvDetailing]

no worth it. unless you want swirl marks all over your car

[mqavila]

Yeah, I only tried this once also. I wasn't impressed.

However, I'm curious about their waxing service though... Assuming that I go to a mall to watch a movie and eat, this means the car will be parked for only around 3 hours - maybe even less. Can they actually do a good waxing job given this limited time?

[mamichula]

I tried it once and Im not going to do it ever again. Sa Glorietta last year I was in a hurry kasi I was going to attend a wedding I dint really have the time to take my car to the shop so I had it waxed while I was shopping.
When I got back wow ang saya parang lalong dumumi ung car ko ang dami pang buo buong wax sa mga singit singit. Nakakainis kasi I ang hirap tanggalin nun nagbuo buong wax sa mga crevices saya diba? and eto pa ung side mirror ko may isang malaking buong wax cguro an inch or two ang size saya

How do they plan on doing the job perfectly eh ang dilim minsan sa mga parking

[1D4LV]

tried their services once dahil sobrang dumi ng oto ko nun.
lumabas ako ng parking na malabo yung hood, salamin, etc. mukhang yung ginamit na basahang pangtuyo eh hindi nabanlawan masyado.

tapos dumami ang swirl marks. parang niliha ang hood tsaka trunk.

[CVT]

IMO, do not, in any circumstance, use their service. They will do more harm than good on your vehicle....

Also, they are not considerate with the adjacent vehicles. So, I park as far away from them as much as possible....

[mqavila]

Actually, I get really irritated with these guys... they do their best to look like they're helping you get a good parking space only to offer their services to you... parang sinusubukan na i-convince ka to avail of their services "in exchange for them getting you a good parking space."

Sometimes, kahit may magandang parking space na tinuturo sila, i deliberately veer away and go to the next level.

We have a very long thread about this in the Goon Squad already, please search.

Never have your car cleaned in any mall they are all owned by the same company clean car global inc. they will not clean your car properly and will not be held liable for any damages they make, they scratched our car and did not have it fixed told us that it was their employees fault and the employee is no longer connected with them. Owner is an asshole Dino Lagdameo, country manager is also an asshole Marvin De Silva. This serves as a warning they charge very high prices and they never do their work properly they should have their license revoked. Spoke to the owner and he shouted and reiterated they will not pay for the damages.

[bobzy]

^ shouted at?? Then in that case you should have escalated the matter to the mall that they are "working with".

anyone here na nagpapa-"car wash" pa din sa mall?

I personally find it super convenient, kasi kapag sobrang dumi ng car, parang nakaka-ilang palinisan sa kanila kasi di na ata sila gumagamit ng tubig.
