    Clean car post Ultimate wash
    Stephanie S.

    I needed to get my car super clean one last time before I POVd my vehicle for an overseas move. For anyone who has ever had to do this before, you know that the vehicle must be "white finger glove clean." Glow Express was recommended to me and I am so appreciative. The attendant was very nice and friendly. I chose the "Ultimate Wash," because I wanted every exterior nook and cranny thoroughly cleaned. I'd washed the car in VT before driving to NJ, but I knew that it would need that extra step. The attendant handed me a bag with a lint-free cloth, two interior wipes, and an air car freshener. All I can say is, wow! I do not get those things back home and I pay $25 to go through the machine. This was an awesome bonus. The wash itself was very thorough. I go to a similar place in VT and I felt this place's machines did a better job. There was a lot more sudsing and getting the bug junk off. I then wiped the car down with the amazing cloth (superior quality) and used the air pressure to push any bugs and debris in the from radiator out. The vacuum was also high powered and excellent. All equipment was clearly well maintained. I was there at 10am on a gray Monday morning and there were at least 6 other customers wiping down their vehicles and more coming. Clearly the negative reviews do not match the popularity of this place. If I lived in the area, I'd pay the $40/m for the unlimited Ultimate wash, but they also have unlimited basic washes for $20/m which is truly a great deal. So how did the POV white finger glove test go? It passed with flying colors, largely in part to this great car wash.

    I am obsessed with my Tesla. So much so that I have it detailed 4x a year and believe me, the cost adds up. Looking to save, I finally gave in to the idea of putting my EV through a carwash. What I love about this one is that once it is washed, you park at one of the stations. They provide you with a brand new cloth to wipe down any excess wetness on the exterior of your vehicle. There are also two wipes for your interior. The cost is low because you have to do the work yourself. I have no problem with that, I'm getting a little exercise in at the same time. Lol. I think it's better than those wet clothes other places use where they keep using it again and again on multiple cars where they can scratch it up. I'm happy I gave this place a chance. The best part? No tipping is required. A car refresher is given as well. Free strong vacuuming hoses at each station. Now I will have my Tesla detailed 2x a year instead.

    Scratches after car wash

    They damaged my vehicle. Provided me with the videos that clearly show I arrived without the scratches and then got them after coming out. Now that I'm requesting their insurance information they are ghosting me. Do not go here to support their business. I would truly give ZERO stars if possible.

    Fresh and clean like it came right out of the showroom.

    This was my first time stopping at this location, and I can easily state I will gladly come back to give them further business. I must admit I feel a little conflicted giving them 5 stars because I didn't pay for my Ultimate Car Wash because I had a free B-Day Ultimate Wash coupon in their loyalty program app called Thanx. The manager on hand was very surprised about and asked me how I heard about it because no one else or very few other people have used said app. My car which was caked in disgusting salt and grime came out spiffy and new at the end of the track, and even if I had to pay regular price for the service I gladly would.

    See all

    Pretty standard car wash. They don't take Apple Pay or other contactless methods. I wish they had people that would help dry your car after.

I was immediately confused about how they were even tracking what I paid for versus what everyone else was getting. Turns out, it didn't matter. I got nothing extra. The car went through a basic wash, the job was sloppy, and the car was still visibly dirty when it was "done." The staff seemed disengaged and uninterested, like they didn't want to be there. When I asked about the interior (which is supposed to be included), I was told the wash was finished and handed four quarters to vacuum the car myself. That's not "The Works." That's barely the basics. This was easily the worst car wash experience I've had. I genuinely don't understand what I paid for, and I regret spending the money. The whole operation feels disorganized and misleading. I'd strongly warn others to skip this place and take their business elsewhere. Edit: For anyone reading this, you can make your own assessment by looking through the reviews. There is a consistent pattern in the business's public responses to negative feedback: concerns are frequently dismissed as "silly," "fake," or unfair, and customers are often told they "ran to the internet" rather than having their experience acknowledged.

Let me tell you, these guys at Flawless Hand Car Wash & Detail are the BEST!!! I've taken my cars here a few times already. They are meticulous and they pass my OCD inspection. The guys are professional, courteous, and friendly. It's like I am getting a brand new car back every time. Love the shine on the exterior and wheels. They never miss a spot. Prices are a bit on the high side for the Premium but you're paying for PERFECTION. They are by appointment only. Word must be getting out because they seem to get busier and busier. 5 solid stars.
