Laserwash III

I frequently get my car washed here and highly recommend it. I wish I knew what soap they use because it gets my car super clean. The attendant has a great personality and always greets me with a smile and great service.

I have to agree with James, that the drying cycle is too short, but that’s not the reason I won’t be returning. In the past I’ve been fairly happy with the guy who works this drive through car wash and I’ve tipped what I thought was an okay tip.$ 5-​$ 6. I don’t know, maybe that’s not an okay tip? He will usually take a brush and give the car a very quick, light once over as the car wash starts and that is incredibly helpful for getting fresh bird poop off, and light dirt, it’s the ONLY reason I went there. If it’s bugs or baked on poop, then I will go to Genie or H2O. However, this past weekend when I went there. I used a debit card to pay at the kiosk for the premium wash. I was holding a $ 5 bill as well, as he came over to wave me in. I always hold the tip to the end and run back and hand it off and tell him what a great job. This time I think he might have been upset that I didn’t tip up front. We watched him wash the car ahead of us and I even said to my husband, look how good this guy is. He did their wheels, the top + sunroof, the complete car. I felt he would do a great job to get the 3 – 4 spots of bird poop of my passenger side. We drove in and he did a quick pass down my drivers side with the brush and half of the windshield, no wheels, no top, nothing on the passenger side and he took off and didn’t return. I figured the car wash would take care of the right side. I was wrong! Even at the premium wash, it did a horrible job. No thick foamy soap at all, poor rinse and of course the short dry. I drove back around and I ran over and very kindly explained that our car was still dirty except that one pass he did down my side and I asked if it would be possible to go through again. I also started to ask if he could brush the right side and he gave me the death stare and curtly waved me off and said… go in that line and I’ll come over to you… behind two waiting cars, when the other bay was empty. I did and when he came over to punch in the code, I rolled down the window to thank him, but he again curtly cut me off andraised his hand, in that teenage way that kids say «talk to the hand», then turned his back and marched off. I just looked at my husband in surprise and was speechless that he was so upset, when I was the one who should have been. We went through the wash again, this time he came over and he did the very same thing. He did one swipe down my driver side and walked away. It was so incredibly weird. It really would have been better had he just left it alone because then the car would have been equally dirty upon exit. Again we exited and the whole right side of the car, the hood, the back and the top were filthy. I pulled back around and I went to ask if he had a paper towel and he said No and turned and walked away. That’s when I walked after him and very calmly said «I’m very disappointed, I come here often, I always tip, and you’ve always been very good. Did we do something wrong to upset you?» that’s when he went into a weird Diva-​like fit. Something I NEVER expected. I felt like I was on a hidden camera show. He started doing these crazy exaggerated arm movements, became very defensive, and then started into a crazy, loud and aggressive, un-​logical rant and there was no way to talk to him in a calm and sensible way. I just had to turn and walk away. When I got into the car, my son said «Wow, that was weird, it’s like he turned into one of those ladies on that housewife show, where they always get in each others face and scream». It was, except it was one sided and very unprofessional. I won’t be back and I’ve been telling all my friends that I had previously recommended this place to, to stay away.

I wouldn’t recommend this car wash. The machines are inadequate for proper rinsing and the drying cycle is way too short.
