| - I stopped after work this afternoon to indulge in a car wash from Jackson's Car Wash. I've been here a few times in the past and thought I'd splurge. I went with the $18.99 WORKS wash which essentially includes EVERYTHING in the BASIC works wash ( vacuum, pre-wash soak, shampoo, soft touch wash, hand towel dry, window cleaning AND tire dressing, clear coat shine, wheel cleaner and an interior car scent of your choice) Trust me when I say that by typing that out, that's a ton of stuff for less than twenty bucks, wouldn't you say?
So here's how it works: You pull up to the entrance and tell the friendly gentlemen what wash package you'd like and hand them your keys. They proceed to vacuum the heck outta the interior of your vehicle and you head inside to their plush air-conditioned waiting room. After they're done vacuuming the interior and applying the fresh scent of your choice, your vehicle is staged in the wash area. It is pressure washed to get any bug guts, road tar or other junk that loves to eat away at your clearcoat. From there, your vehicle enters the car wash and it gets squeaky clean. After it exits the wash, they pull your vehicle to the end staging area where it is hand dried, high-powered air is blown out of hoses via a large compressor to assist in the drying process, the wheels are cleaned, the clear coat is shined up, the tire dressing is applied & the windows are cleaned.
NOW... let me be perfectly clear here... you have purchased a car wash. This isn't a 5-minute detail service. They're not going to sit there and insure that every single water spot is off your vehicle. They aren't going to be 100% positive that there may not be a streak or two left in on your windows. Is it going to be perfect? ...probably not. And you know what? I accept that. It's a car wash. I'm not asking the gentlemen at Jackson's Car Wash to detail my truck in 5-minutes for a mere $18.99 + tax. If you've left a negative review because of this, you're essentially the problem here. It is no different than if you go to the Chevron gas station, buy a car wash and expect a full detail when your vehicle exits the air dry station from the high-powered blowers. When I get my truck washed at the gas station, I typically drive it home, finish the drying process, get all the water spots off with some Quik Detailer and with a little more elbow grease, my truck is spotless.
Jackson's Car Wash does ALL of that and more and they still save you a ton of time, energy and the need to spend so much time on your car when you ultimately get it home. I'll say this for a third time: You're buying a car wash. It is not a full / complete detail service. If you want a full detail, then pay for a full detail and expect that kind of quality. You cannot expect detail quality when you're buying a car wash. Yes, there may be a water spot or two. Yes, there may be a streak on one of your windows. And oh my goodness, perhaps a bug may be left on your grille. Is it going to be perfect? ...probably not and I don't expect it to be. I think they do a darn good job for what they're paid for. It certainly beats the Chevron gas station as far as I'm concerned. I'll continue recommending Jackson's to all my friends and family.
