Sky Car Wash.....opinions?

[ironchef]

Anyone use their monthly wash plans....and or got any opinions on them? I was thinking about signing up for the unlimited washes thing.

[Brett]

I was with them for a bit but then changed to Auto Indulgance on Northpoint Parkway. They give the same service but cheaper monthly rates. SKY usaully has stuck up empoyees and thier rates go up literally every few months.

[Chuckster]

opinion - Clean your own damn car.

[SpeedMonkey]

the only thing skywash has on other tunnel auto washes is that they actually clean their equipment regularly. however.. i still think you should wash your own.

[ironchef]

too lazy...

[Leisa]

I cant reach the top of my shit to clean it myself...

[thinkfast®]

HERE'S AN OPINION - THIS THREAD IS GARBAGE!

AND, WASH YOUR OWN SHIT YOU BUM.. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR? YEA

[Brett]

I take the Fusion to Auto Indulgance every 2 days, Im to lazy to wash that damn thing

[Leisa]

well i used to go once a week to Auto Indulgence until a specific person fucked that up...

[thinkfast®]

^^ UH OH LOL

This is my personal experience with them. Cliffs at the bottom.

I made the mistake of taking my car to them. I have polished aluminum CCWs on my Corvette and took my car to Sky expecting nothing but professional and knowledgeable employees.

I take my car there on Saturday, let the guy know what I want done, he tells me not a problem. I advised him I wanted them to particularly careful with my wheels and clean them well. He said, "Not a problem." I told him I will tip very well if the wheels come out as I'd expressed. He then stated, "That won't be necessary, as the cleaners will do an excellent job and not that they will notice, as they are probably not even legal." I gave him a blank look, and walked inside.

I take my $42 ticket inside to pay thinking everything will be perfect upon leaving. My car comes out of the car wash, and is now getting vaccumed. I see the girl cleaning the wheels from afar while she is leaning on the car with her empty hand. I'm thinking to myself, "Why bother having the car washed if they're going to be putting hand prints right back on it?"

Nonetheless, I say nothing. I see they pull the car around, and I approach. Upon inspection of my wheels, I notice a cloudy, white substance on my wheel. I look closer to see the wheels are no longer shiney as they were when I brought them there. It appears something had eaten away at the polished finish.

I ask to speak with a manager, he comes over, tells me he's not going to do anything, as they don't cover aftermarket parts. He tells me he washes over 500 cars a day and cannot be responsible for aftermarket parts. I then reply and say, "So you wash over 500 cars a day, a basic wash is ~$40, and you've never had this problem before? I find that incredibly hard to believe." He then gets a call and says he will be right back. Note that I am in front of the car wash speaking with the manager in a not-so-happy manner. He tells me the owner of the car wash would like to speak with me.

The owner was a complete prick. Had no regard for what happened to my wheels, and wants me to leave. I told him this was unacceptable. I brought my car here to get washed, and leave with damaged $4,000 wheels.

I call CCW, the wheel manufacturer, and speak with a rep there. I ask if there are any specific brands of wheel cleaners I should use on the wheels. He stated as long as there is no amonia based chemicals or degreasers, then the wheels should be fine to take anywhere.

I tell the owner this, and it's as if he could've cared less while stating, "Nothing but the best chemicals and soaps are used here."

Let me not forgot to mention there is brake dust ALL OVER my front wheels. They had not even been cleaned!

Well, long story short, before calling my lawyer, I decide to try to calmly negotiate a happy median for the both of us. He tells me he will cover half of the cost of repair to have all wheels re-polished. I tell him that's acceptable to me. He tells me to wait one moment in the lobby. I sit there for about 15 minutes, and then he tells me, "Ya know, I don't feel like it's our fault, and I will cover 1 hours' worth of labor for one of my employees to try to buff/polish out the blemishes." I ask him what happened to our deal of him covering half of the charges, and he said he doesn't feel that he should be responsible considering his sign states 'no aftermarket parts will be covered'. I tell him his employee told me they would be fine. He says nothing.

At this point, I'm frustrated, and don't want to deal with his condescending attitude towards me. I pull out the Sony 8.1 digi cam and start snapping away for my lawyer. He then states, "Ya know, since I'm in a good mood, and you've been a nice guy about it, I'll give you $200 to get the wheels repaired thru Butler Tire."

I take the $200 check, sign the waiver, and go on my way.

First and last time I'll ever do business with them again.

This post is simply to state my personal experience with Sky Car Wash in Alpharetta.




Cliffs:

-Take the Z06 there to get washed
-Worker makes comment about their employees being illegal, says it's ok to wash my car with the wheels
-Wheels have been sprayed with amonia based chemicals, possibly a very strong degreaser leaving a cloudy look and white blotches all over my $4,000 CCW wheels
-Owner is rude and has condescending attitude and offers to cover half of repairs and then decides he will not
-I start taking pictures of the poor job they did as there was brake dust all over my wheels after paying $50 for a car wash
-Owner then decides he wants to cover half of the costs
-I leave

The owner eventually owned up to his deal and covered $200 of the cost of re-polishing the wheels. I'll try to post pics later.

Even with the wheels getting damaged, they should've at LEAST cleaned the brake dust off the outside of the wheels considering I paid $50 for a basic wash with wheel cleaning option.

Are there a bunch of fat chicks that work there or something?

[Crazy Asian]

Shoot my rims have a nice lip on them and I got caked polish or wheel cleaner that wont come off....damn.

[iloveboost]

Try some aluminum/metal polish. Might help some.

[ironchef]

So since skys out, any other recommendations besides auto indulgence?

[Crazy Asian]

I tried everything....its like caked or I ono. It just wont come off. I think I need a heavy duty bufffer to get it out.

[iloveboost]

Call Metro Wheels in Marietta. They're a tad pricey but I've heard good things.

[Evil Goat]

lol @ paying people to wash your car....almost as stupid as paying someone to change your oil

[Bruce Leroy]

Are there a bunch of fat chicks that work there or something?

Naw, just one. But they do a good job and always take car of their customers. EX. Some paint chipped off my mom's bumper when she was getting a full detail. We talked to the owner, and it was fixed a week later. We are on the monthly plan so I used to go up there 2 or three times a week.

[ironchef]

lol @ paying people to wash your car....almost as stupid as paying someone to change your oilWhy is that stupid? Thats like saying its stupid to go to a restaurant because someone else cooks your food.

[Crazy Asian]

bAHAHHAHHAHHHAHA TRUE!!!! Im just damn lazy. I litterally could have saved over 1000 dollars on doing stuff by myself...but no too damn lazy. Except that timing belt job which Ill prob destroy the whole motor.

[Evil Goat]

Why is that stupid? Thats like saying its stupid to go to a restaurant because someone else cooks your food.


why is that stupid you ask? did you not read the other 2-3 people in here who got ass fucked by a car wash facility b/c they were too fucking lazy to do it themselves....its just a matter of time before it happens to you and when it does noone wants to read your sob ass bullshit thread about it, if youre too fucking lazy to do the work yourself then dont bitch when it isnt done right


as for the girls that are too short for whatever there are 2 solutions....

1.buy something smaller
2.start fucking someone taller

/stupid ass thread2-3 people got fucked, big whoop. And they werent crying about it, they were just sharing their experience with that particular place. If I was in agreeance with your point of view then this thread wouldnt exist. Since i'm not, and you have nothing to contribute in the way of naming places, you are useless, feel free to not click the thread.

[Evil Goat]

i bet you let walmart change you oil too dontcha?

i didnt say they were whining, i said when you get fucked in the ass you will most assuredly post up some pointless fucked up thread, much like this one, and whine like a little bitch about it, b/c you were too fucking lazy to spend a few minutes and wash your own shit.....they probably run what 100 cars or more through the machine a day with god knows what on the car and clean it when? once a month? if that aint stupid i dont know what is

tell your paint i said, L-O-FUCKIN-L

[Evil Goat]

and then when they get through fucking over your paint, or you wheels, or breaking your antenna off you can go pay someone to fix that problem as well.

Is that directed towards Leisa?

[Kyle]

I would never let my car out of my hands for someone to wash it. I don't know what shit they would use. They could drop something on it, scratch it with their belt or something accidentally and I would never get over it. Do any of you really trust your cars with these people?

I detail my car every week, and would not have it any other way. I am not saying people should not pay people to clean their cars but I wouldn't.

[Brett]

When it comes to my Civic I dont let anyone wash it, or even dry it but me, But when it comes to the Fusion, I like having the ability to have it washed every 2-3 days and it always look clean, I dont have time to wash it the way I want it done, so for me $50 a month is worth the price when I can go every day of the month if i want.

[Bballjamal]

Ohhhhhhh shit......yO! I think it was :eek:


I cant reach the top of my shit to clean it myself...

if the shoe fits, where it

notice i said girls....you know plural, as in more than one, i know youre old, but you gotta alteast remember the fundamentals of english grammar, so one can conclude that the word "girls" would encompass (or "include" in case youre wondering what that big word is) all females, including whoever this said leisa is

[Brett]

This "Said" Leisa is my wife

and I do understand basic English, As you should try the basic's of spelling.

It would be "If the shoe fits, WEAR it" not "Where" it

[Evil Goat]

my apologies to you/leisa as i wouldnt want someone making offhand remarks about my wife

yet in still, you are pretty old, surprised you caught the spelling mistake, most of the elderly have problems with reading and eyesight as well ;)

tell your paint i said, L-O-FUCKIN-LNo, I take it to the audi dealership for the oil change, walmart aint touching my shit. The place I go to now to get it washed does a pretty good job on the exterior, but not so good on the interior, they just leave big spots uncleaned, so its pretty annoying. Hence my search for a different place.
