I was originally going to score this as four stars, but on consideration, it did better than just about any other carwash would have done. My story is as follows: I had to get another car when the transmission on my current one shredded itself in a matter of seconds. An internal pump blew and it went from running normally without problems to can't even idle the engine in park in a very short amount of time. My solution was to get another car. The one I got had not been waxed in at least two years. It was mostly mechanically sound but the body isn't in great shape. Furthermore, I had to park under a notorious tree just after I got it. One that in the fall not only manages to drop some kind of seed,. but glues the seeds and other droppings onto cars with its sap. This is as bad as it gets. Welded on tree sap with various other debris glued on with the sap. So, no wax, tree sap, and crap glued on with the tree sap. I'd like to say this wash got it all off. It unfortunately didn't, but it came very close. The chemicals it used did dissolve the sap, but unfortunately it didn't really wait long enough for them to completely soak in. What it DID do was make it so what little was left came off easily after I had let the car sit elsewhere for about a half hour. The wax pass really shined the car back up and looks quite good considering where it started from. Some TLC and another pass will probably have things looking spiffy. This has done as good as any automated system I've ever been to with the worst crud I've ever had. There are no attendants or anything so any interior cleaning you're on your own. I would have been nice to have some option for an extended soak, but really, this saved me a LOT of manual work to get all the crud off. read more
