Thanks for recommending.

 

I will try it out if I happen to pass by Macpherson.

 

I am making this comments as I felt that I had been shortchanged for the price paid. Imagine S$ 7 can pay for a Mcdonald meal after self washing.

 

I do know that washing by ourself is definitely better than a car wash. However, my car is almost 3 years old, can't be really bothered about the shineness of the paintwork. As long as it is clean and presentatble then it is fine with me.

 

Cheers

I kind of agree bro, $7 is to slight on the high side for a carwash. Still at times i do visit this car wash, when i am really tired. Especially after work,zzzz. Still, I will make it a point to wash by myself over a relaxing weekend. No matter what, they car wash people can never be as detail as the car owner himself. Agree?

Har har . . . that's why I would rather wash the car myself.

 

Now my car so many scratch marks due to sand particles in the cloths they use [:/]

 

BTW, is it okay if I pass them my sponges and wash cloths to use on my car instead?

DIY is still the best [thumbsup]

I ever came back from Malaysia with millions of bug splats in the front of my car, then go car wash $5. Think those people sianz.... they missed out a lot of parts but it's just $5... makes my work easier when I wash it myself the 2nd round.

Don't know true or not? I overheard during a lunch session with my colleagues that SPC & Caltex running promotions lately. $40 pruchase of petrol, they giving out $3 car wash coupons for redemption of the usual $6 & $7 car wash. Sounds good, I going to switch petrol to either one of them liao. Hee...

Hi there,

 

I used to wash my car everyday after my work due before my first child was born.

 

Suddenly i just dont have the time , taking care of him used up all my energy.

 

So what if my car is so clean, flakless or well polished. And the end of 3 years I changed my ride to another new car and have start all over again.

 

I think I rather let the washing done by the washers at the petrol station. The one I always petrolise at Machperson Caltex station is not bad. They will use different cloths for different drying of the cars.

 

Somemore it only cost me $4. Have a nice day.

Beware of the spc car wash in queensway, in the direction towards q'way shopping centre and Bt Merah - those guys there have the bloody habit of just pouring only a pail of water over your front windscreen and start hosing the rest of your car with the foam. Had to stop them and have them hose the entire car with water before allowing them to foam and scrub. :angry:

I really miss those machine wash, few years back can find but now they replaced with manual washing. I feel machine washing will gives a more consistent results as each step by machine is programmed. Nowadays manual washing can find some spots which they missed....

Machines have higher maintenance cost than manual washing. To save cost, they got people to wash your car these days.

 

Yes, I too miss those machine washing.
