The attendant gave me a hand wash option which took longer, but the results are fantastic very pleased with the work that the workers put in taking care of my very dirty van. Price is comparable to other places in OC so not bad.

Car looks brand new again! I took my car in to get the mini auto detail special for $170. Zack was the person who took care of me. Very nice and welcoming took a look at my cars condition before leaving it with him and then paid before leaving. They have a separate cashier office. There is plenty of places to sit couches inside and sitting outside. I opted to drop off and pick up later. Zack called when it was ready and it took about 3 hours. I don't have the before pictures but I haven't had a full detail on my car since I got it 2 years ago. So, it was definitely needed. Highly recommend I love the results already am getting compliments from Friends and family.

This is a great Car Wash and I love coming here, but their prices have gotten so high that I can't afford to come very often anymore. They do an excellent job and are so pleasant and such hard-working people that I try to support them as often as I can. You can do your own quick wash, or you can purchase from a few different levels of their washing and complete line of detailing as well. They also do oil changes and smog checks.

After blood shampoo removal

I called Fullerton car wash after an emergency with my pet in the backseat that left blood everywhere. AT provided a quick verbal quote and confirmed to evaluate once he saw my car in person. 20 minutes later he took my car in and got the backseat shampooed for me. Also came with the hand car wash and vacuum all for $90. AT and his staff were awesome and super quick. I was there less than 30ish minutes!!

Bird poo, mark?

I was disappointed with the quality of the wash, especially since I paid for a hand wash and hand dry for a NEW car. There were still small dirt spots left on the car, micro-scratches, water marks, and the trunk area was not properly wiped down. I also noticed some leftover white residue around the speakers. For a hand wash, I expected the car to be more thoroughly cleaned with a soft touch and inspected before being returned...

Replica Dodgers World Series ring

Crash wash was excellent. Quick and clean. I want to especially thank the individual who washed my car for his honesty. He found a replica Dodgers World Series ring down in the seat that my son had lost and put it on the front and told me about it. It's really great to be able to get a excellent wash and be able to trust the employees with your belongings. Thanks Fullerton Car wash!! Amazing service!

Originally, after my third experience wasn't great, I gave this business 2 stars. But the owner replied within hours of my review. So I'll clarify my experience as perhaps I was too harsh. You need to clearly communicate what you want and make sure you know what they're charging you. All I wanted was the oil change that came with the complementary wash and vacuum. But was instead also given a detail at 90 bucks. The work was great. The car looks amazing. Just not what I asked for or could afford. I saw the yellow paper they handed me (an estimate receipt) and under the estimate box it said $59.99. I bumped it up a star because the work here is unmatched. People are friendly. But communication lacked and I literally paid for it. So back to my original review... I came here twice blown away by their friendliness and price. I got an oil change with synthetic oil, they vacuumed my car, sent it through the wash, then they hand dried it all for $100. The third time, they charged me over $150 for regular oil and they won't wash the car. It appears you gotta talk to the right guy to get a certain price, I'm not sure. It's really unfortunate because that extra amount is a lot for my family so it was a punch in the gut being told it would cost that amount and like a fool I paid for it, not paying attention to how much they were charging me. When I asked why the amount was so much more, I got told I was actually getting a discount. 60 bucks by itself for the oil change and 90 for the vacuuming. Whaaaa? How is that right? So I don't know if I'll be back after this communication mishap. I can't afford it.

I come in once a month to get my car detailed and Zach always takes good care of me and my car. He gives me a great deal and amazing job on the detail. If you do the oil change he throws in a free car wash. Ricky is the best receptionist anyone could ask for and she's the sweetest and funniest ! When I come here I feel like I'm part of a family. Anush is very grumpy and serious. Don't ask for him.

My car getting clean!

This is not my usual car wash, but I do come here when I am pressed for time. The staff is nice and they take good care of my car. The prices are reasonable and the location is ideal, being right in the heart of Downtown Fullerton.

Hey do you guys have full hand wash? I have a bike rack and dont want to remove it to get it washed under the machine. Thank you!

They do have a full hand wash.

How long is the usual wait for a car wash on Sundays?

30 minutes

Hard to say. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are a zoo, but that was pre-COVID. During the week isn't bad either.

Visiting Mr. Wayne at Dr. Detail was an amazing experience. I have lived across the street since…read morethe store opened but never stopped in due to a false belief that they only catered to professional detailers and car wash businesses. My black ten-year-old car was definitely starting to show its age. Despite car washes every other week, waxes every month, and attempts at hand polishing, the clearcoat was starting to oxidize and the paint was looking tired. I had gotten quotes for paint correction from a few mobile detailers and businesses ranging from $400 to $600 depending on how far I wanted to go with the restoration. Wayne greeted me from his corner office and after two minutes of me trying to explain my concern he was outside with a bar of clay, a spray detailer, and some compound. My main concern was that the clear coat on my car was too thin and that any further attempts at "cutting" or abrasive polishing would wear down the paint. Mr. Wayne assured me that I had plenty of clearcoat left and proceeded to test a small portion of the hood, bringing it back to a nice shine in a few minutes. The entire time he was educating me on products and methods on how I could achieve this in an afternoon with the right tools and supplies. After going back in the store, Wayne lined up products for me on the counter but I NEVER once felt any sales pressure. Hesitantly, I even mentioned that I had some Meguires polish at home and Wayne recommended that I use a Meguires compound as it will work best as a system. Normally, this type of comment would yield an irritated response from seasoned shop owners, but not in the case of Dr. Detail. He recommended that I purchase a dual-action polisher from Harbor Freight despite having a wall full of them in his store. He then even coached me on which pads to use with which product and the method by which I should hold and maneuver the polisher over the panels of my car. In the end, I left his store with only a bar of clay, a spray detailer, glass cleaner, but most importantly the knowledge and confidence that I could tackle this job on my own. Cut to this past weekend, after about four hours of pretty tiring work my car looks better than it has in YEARS. It most certainly isn't a show car but those were never my expectations for my daily driver. I was able to remove 90% of the oxidation from my hood and roof and attribute the remaining 10% to my own user error with the products and tools. We need more shop owners like "Dr." Wayne, he is a wealth of knowledge and I look forward to seeing him again soon!

Nobody locallyis more knowledgeable about automotive detailing than Doc Wayne! Professional-grade…read moresupplies, even if you're a DIY'er will make a huge difference in labor saving and final results, and Wayne won't sell or upsell you on something you don't need. I find it much better to get an in-person sense of what I need versus guessing about something online

Professional. Very responsive. Quick to address my issue…read more Brought in my 19 civic on Tuesday that had a broken bracket, leaving the front bumper hanging a bit under the headlight. Sat down with Daniel and got the part ordered, which arrived on Wednesday. By Thursday midday, got the part replaced and was driving out the lot. I highly recommend Perfect Color. Jeff was quick to provide an estimate over the weekend and his team got the job done quickly. Will definitely be back for any future repairs.

The service here is A++. I had a friend paint some side skirts for me, but when I got them back,…read morethey had quite a bit of orange peel and needed to be cut and buffed. I contacted Daniel, and he was great to work with from the start. His pricing was fair, the turnaround time was reasonable, and he made the entire process stress-free. I had called several shops, and most of them wanted to repaint the side skirts completely. Daniel was one of the few who was confident they could correct the finish with a cut and buff, and the results exceeded my expectations. When I mentioned that I still needed the side skirts installed, Daniel let me know his team could handle that as well. After the cut and buff was completed, I brought my NSX in for the installation. Just as we were backing the car into the shop, it suddenly started leaking coolant everywhere. The team immediately jumped into action, cleaned up the coolant, rolled out wheel dollies, and carefully moved the car inside so it could cool down while they completed the installation. Daniel and Team even went the extra mile by calling around to find a replacement cap and topping off the coolant for me. Unfortunately, the cap didn't fit my aftermarket reservoir, but I appreciated the effort. After the installation, the installer noticed my reservoir cap looked secure but wasn't fully locked down. He sinched the locking mechanism properly, and the coolant leak did not return on the ride home. The quality of the work was outstanding, but what really impressed me was the customer service. The team went above and beyond to help with an unexpected problem, and that's the kind of service you don't see every day. I'll definitely be back and would highly recommend this shop to anyone
