I wish to express my praise for Sandy's Coin Wash. It had been over a year since I had taken my Breathable Car Cover here to be washed, and I used Oxy-clean, instead of detergent. Unbeknownst to me at the time, it was a bad move.
As it turned out Oxy-clean is not a detergent and does not dissolve very well, and it got embedded into the woven fibers of my Car Cover. As a result, each time I placed my Car Cover onto my black sports car, it would become sprinkled with white granules of Oxy-clean from bumper to bumper.
Although I had been into Sandy's to wash it once or twice since then, to try to rinse it out, the problem persisted.
In one last effort to remedy my problem, I mentioned it to one of the staff and they in turn contacted the Ownership. Right away I was offered a complimentary "Wash and Dual-Rinse" in the hopes that the cleansing product I used would finally be dispersed.
After a couple of hours, while watching a Football game on their nice Color Television (with sound), I was able to "tackle" the issue and get results. Although I was not able to get the Oxy-clean Granules completely out, I was very happy with the cooperation and service provided by the two Assistants that were on duty. They were willing to re-start the Jumbo Machine as many times as I needed to wash all of the Oxy out, but I decided to stop at three tries.
During the process it became clear to me that due to the size of my one piece car cover, no matter how many times I ran it through the rinse cycle, there would always be a certain amount of residue/granules trapped in it's folds. Continuing to run it through the machine was fruitless. It was time to go "Old School" on it. Meaning, I would need to string this thing up on my Patio and hose it down and bat it with a broom until all of the granules are dispersed.
Long story-short, Sandy's is a great place to go if you want good customer service, and want to do business with people that care about their business. Which unfortunately is a problem here in the Antelope Valley.
They also have Drop-off/Fluff & Fold Service as well and so if you are a person on the go, you may want to check it out.
PS - They have Free Wi-Fi, something that I think was implemented after I suggested it to management during one of my visits a while back. And so if you run a small home office like I do, but are concerned about down-time while away from home, this is the place to come to. read more
