| - Stopped here to get my car washed and specifically wanted a wax application to protect it over the winter months.
The carwash is also a full service gas station. The guys working there were less than helpful. Their english wasn't great, plus the guy mumbled all his responses to me, repeating the same words every time.
I asked several times if they had a premium car wash with wax and they nodded their heads many times and gestured for me to drive around to the back of the line.
The carwash is advertised as $6 but I paid $10 thinking I was getting the 'Executive wash'. When it came to be my turn I asked 'which wash includes wax?' The guys response was '$10.' That's a price, not an answer to my question. I could only assume he meant that the $10 Executive wash includes a wax. The sign was vague. I asked for clarification saying 'So, the executive wash includes a wax?' He responded '$10, yes'.
Figuring I was getting no where, I just gave him $10 and he put a receipt on windshield without saying anything. Then another guy standing by the entrance of the wash gestured for me to pull forward. He hosed off the windshield and hood of the car, including the receipt that was stuck on to the hood, without looking at it. Why would the first guy stick the receipt under my wiper if the second guy is only going to blast it off with a hose?
The wash I received seemed like the exact same wash that every other car was getting, even though those cars bought the $6 wash. There was no wax application. Just a basic touch wash.
I did get a coin for 5mins of vacuuming with my wash. They have 4 vacuum stations near the entrance just west of Dufferin and like all good gas stations, 2 are always broken. That's probably all this place is good for.
My parents recently informed me that he took his car for a wash there and the sponge machine tore off one of the rubber liners on the roof. Now he has to take it to the dealership for repairs.
I wouldn't return here. There's a DIY wash at the Shell station to the west and an Esso wash on Davenport, just south of Dupont.
