Came by today with with a few buddies and his Mark II.

Nice meeting Belaud there too.

Paradise240 04-20-2012 06:43 PM

I don't think I'll be meeting many of you guys @ the place now. This is the 2nd week which I don't have a shift and they "put" me on call... :okay:

TjAlmeida 04-20-2012 07:00 PM

can't see that being long. weather its getting better, more and more people are going to want a quality wash.

GabAlmighty 04-20-2012 08:48 PM

I'm gonna hopefully take the truck out wheeling before I leave (may 7th) and i'm bringing it to you guys when it's all filthy... Actually, if there's a convoy of use going i'm bringing everyone there.

Seriously, that guy lives at the car wash :badpokerface:

belaud 04-20-2012 10:57 PM

My god, I do NOT like cleaning my wheels, thus I pay you guys to do it :fullofwin:

Paradise240 04-20-2012 11:07 PM

So...who moves your car now ? Is it still the same guy ? LOL

belaud 04-20-2012 11:27 PM

The owner, he stands by my car and waits till everyone is done just to drive it out, ALWAYS.

He also likes to rev it a few times before putting it into gear, roll it out, and rev it some more, he has the funniest smirk when he gets out.

Akinari 04-21-2012 08:34 AM

He's told me before he's a huge fan of STIs :troll:

We use degreaser on wheels, dunno if that helps.

yingyu_subaru 04-27-2012 03:40 PM

went the place this morning. First time, last time.

Akinari 04-27-2012 05:44 PM

Wow, I never realized how lonely it looks on weekdays

ae101 04-28-2012 07:30 AM

:yuno: pics of cute japanese that wash your cars ppl

TOPEC 04-28-2012 08:32 AM

question, how r the wash mits then use? do they scratch the car? i dont want to add anymore swirls to my car lol

Lomac 04-28-2012 09:18 AM

Damn. I'd go but I'm pretty sure my rims are so caked with crap from winter that you guys would simply have a conniption once you saw 'em. :lol

Paradise240 04-28-2012 10:33 AM

We use sponges to wash the car, which is re-used over and over again. If I drop my sponge, I'll rinse it out and grab a new one, but I'm not sure about the others. I do a top-bottom wash, and leave the bottom, with the most rocks/sand etc... last, again, not sure about the others.

Lomac, I'm sure they can't be that bad. We've had rims worse then these ! With a thousand more spokes.

Lomac 04-28-2012 10:36 AM

Well tell ya what... I'll swing by next weekend and ask for ya. Keep an eye out for a lowered 7g Accord coupe rolling on rims that look solid black, but actually have a polished lip... ;)

Paradise240 04-28-2012 10:38 AM

^ Thats if I'm called into work, but thats unlikely cause I haven't been at work for 3 weeks now :okay:

Mega dirty...thousand spokes...which car are you implying... :suspicious:

quasi 04-28-2012 03:25 PM

LOL, this post reminds me of one of my first jobs when in highschool. We'd do like 150-200 cars a day on the weekends, could be really hard work. Nice to see there are still places like this around.
