After the car wash my car was still filthy

After the car wash my car was still dirty with loadsof dust and water spots all over it. You could see the marks from the final chamois clean where the dirt had dried on. I paid £12 for this. I took it back and the operator was very rude and said I must have been through a 'dust storm' after the car wash! It had been sunny and no rain. I feel he should have offered to put the car through again. Very disappointed with both the quality of the wash and the attitude of the operator. Would not use again

A little underwhelmed

I paid £19 for the ceramic finish. Im happy with how the body work looks.
However I am disappointed with the wheels. All four black alloys look dirty and tyres dont look dressed.
My main objective was the chassis, to remove salt. I hope it was done.
I never seen the attendant treat my near side wheels, or of the car ahead of me.
I will proberly use again, just to get the underside cleaned.

John Rumney,

We appreciate your feedback and are glad you're pleased with the bodywork. We're sorry the wheel appearance didn't meet expectations and for any missed attention to the wheels. We'll review our processes to ensure thoroughness, especially regarding chassis cleaning. We value your custom.
