| Crystal mall car detailing?
Anyone has any experience getting your car detailed there? How are they quality wise? It's the one located in the underground parking lot.

Nothing is worth going in that hell hole of a parking lot.*

i'm pretty sure they'll do more damage to your paint than anything else

crystal mall actually does a pretty good job for car wash, but not sure about detail, wax etc.

Sorry for thread jack but when I go into metro I see signs for car wash
Anybody know where it is or if it's still there?
Never seen a car wash in there but maybe I just never explored the whole parking lot

Whenever I drive pass by them, I often see clean shiny cars after treatment. Now I'm just wondering if it stays that way after they leave etc, or if the wax or whatever products they use are reliable/good quality and do more goods than damage.

if you are looking for a real detail (paint correction, and the car subsequently looking very slick), i highly recommend Project Detail.

I recall driving by and seeing them use broom-style brushes.
