Recommend a Carwash

ZombieBride

My car is getting a bit grubby looking and needs a good scrub, I have tried a few car washes in the city but they don't seem that great, does anyone know of a good one?

The Snipe

The one by my house, next to punches seems to be good, as they are getting a good bit of business.

Clareman

+1 for Punches, if you work nearby they'll even come to collect your car.

The one at Punches have always done a good job on my car

ZombieBride

3 votes for Punches, I'll check it out and report back, cheers all.

kitchensinks

The best carwash is always the one done by yourself (if you have the time)

Insect Overlord

The lads behind the Shamrock/Xtravision on the Ennis Road did a great job on my mother's car yesterday.

Another vote for the lads at the Punches cross car wash. Here is a link to their prices.

There's a living social deal currently for them. Deluxe valet for 39 I think. Getting it done Sunday.

The lads on the dock road topaz station (the one with supermacs) also do a good job.

Most apartment livers wouldn't have the facilities to wash or valet their car where it is parked.

Bronze wash is only 5 euro and does a great job! I recommend them.

Wash it where you park it sure, there's not that much to it and I find it very rewarding as do a lot of people

There's quite a bit to it when you park it in a multi-storey carpark with no access to water

I used to do it when I lived in a apartment block a few years ago,neighbours probably thought I was a bit mad tho :pac:

ZombieBride

I'd agree with your neighbours

If you can convince Insect Overlord (who lives very close to me ) to give me a hand I'll show ya how to wash/valet a car and you'll never want to pay anyone again. You'd have to get stuck in aswell though...

timbertime

I find the one at Emo on Clare St very good and at €6 it's good value as well!

Second vote for the lads at Topaz on Dock Rd- €7 for a really thorough wash and they don't leave streaks, unlike some others I've found.:)

Can I come for a look too! Always wondered how people living in apartments with multi-storey parking washed their cars

Be careful ZombieB, I reckon the feckers don't even have a car and that you would be walking into a Deliverance style scenario. The Snipe would probably be lurking there with them like the Imp he is.:D

Nah, the initiation is much weirder.I was only trying to show how easy it is!

The Snipe

I'll have you know Kess, I know who she is and would gladly help!

Clareman

Don't worry, the lads will do a great job cleaning your car



Make sure the engine isn't flooded afterwards though
