    The waiting area at the car wash is quite nice, isn't it?

    The waiting area at the car wash is quite nice, isn't it? Conveniently located. Offers free coffee and cookies

    Ugh still dusty

    I recently visited Pasadena Car Wash for the first time because I thought it would be a great way to save time and get my car cleaned inside and out. I chose the Bronze tier which ended up costing about 40 dollars once I added the tip. The process is pretty straightforward since you just leave your keys in the ignition and let them handle the rest. They vacuum the floors and wipe down the surfaces before sending it through the wash. The whole thing took less than 30 minutes which was much faster than I expected. While you wait they have a nice lounge area. They offer free coffee and light snacks which is a cool touch. They also have WiFi so you can hang out on your phone or get some work done on a laptop. The lobby feels like a convenience store because they have huge racks of greeting cards and gift bags for sale. However the actual cleaning was disappointing. Honestly I could have cleaned the inside of my car better than they did. It is frustrating to pay that much and still see spots they missed. It felt like a waste of 40 dollars in the end.

    千万不要来!黑心洗车行! I paid $37.99 for a car wash, but my car wasn't even cleaned properly. There were still water spots left on the screen inside the car, and many areas looked like they hadn't been wiped at all. To make things worse, they tried to sell me a $250 detailing service instead of simply finishing the basic wash I had already paid for. It felt like they were using a poor wash to upsell expensive services. Very disappointing experience. I won't be coming back, and I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

    Been coming here for years and its a nice place because, the service is nice, good amenities like cookies and couches inside and a wide selection of greeting cards and other car related merch to past the time. They do a decent job of get most of the grime of, but its a little pricey for me but its very conveniently located for me.

    Should have hit this with compressed air

    The good is, it's a very nice facility. I will come back and get the lowest end wash. I paid $51 for the platinum thinking it would get a little extra attention to detail. I understand I wasn't paying for a detail, but for the convenience of time, I was expecting more that I received. My car was dirty, it had been rained on and was pretty dirty inside and out. I was taking someone I respect out for lunch and wanted my car CLEAN. Be aware some people have differently levels of standards when it comes to clean. I was very disappointed and will get the cheapest version if I come back. The good news is, there wasn't much of a wait... the bad news is, it looked like a rushed job. And it wasn't even a busy Thursday morning.

    Who thought of this??

    Pasadena Car Was just increased their rates and I have a few recommendations that can possibly justify a $50 base car wash.... Overall I'm grossed out by their operations!! 1. Don't allow the lady to make the coffee with the water from the bathroom sink. Use your price increase to buy several gallons of clean drinking water. 2. Invest in a plumber. There's no way you're asking women to wipe themselves and throw their used toilet paper in the trash sitting directly in front of the toilet. 3. Invest in simple dryers. Leaving the car wash with water marks across my car defeats the purpose of my visit!!!

    Great car wash. Reasonable prices, and they do a thorough job in record time. They also have free coffee and cookies and WiFi. This is the ONLY place I'll take my car to get washed. 10/10 recommend.

    $70 to wash my hummer only to come and clean it again. This place is a rip off and their employees clearly cannot tell the difference between clean and not.

    For years I've came here to get my car wash when I can. It's a very nice upscale car wash with refreshments, quality seating area, and very clean inside. They take a while with your car and is very pricy, but I don't get my car washed as much, so at times it's ok. They do a really good job so that's always good! They are very uniformed, which I like because that shows professionalism. They also have fuel for your car if you need gas. Overall, I will continue to come! It's in a nice area and a very nice ambiance to sit and wait for your car. Also, they do everything you need. Side note: on Wednesday's they have senior day, which you receive money off your wash. You must be 62 or older though! The deals always make me happy :)

    Disgusting. You

From the beginning,…read morehe took the time to explain everything and helped me make the right decisions for my new Tesla. He walked me through the paint protection film (PPF) process, the different tint percentages, and the benefits of ceramic coating. I was able to drop off my car the same day I picked it up from Tesla, and Teddy was very accommodating in getting me scheduled. One of my biggest concerns was choosing the right tint because I didn't want it to be too dark. Teddy gave me great guidance, and the final result was exactly what I wanted. Everything came out great. The PPF installation is extremely clean and seamless, you honestly can't even tell that PPF has been applied. The tint looks perfect, and I'm very happy with the overall finish. Highly recommend Technic Auto Spa. If you're not sure what PPF, tint, or ceramic coating options are right for your car, definitely reach out to Teddy. He'll take the time to explain the options and help you choose what works best for you.

The car came out looking really good, and it's clear they take pride in the actual detailing. That said, I had a frustrating experience with pricing that I think needs to be called out. When the technician arrived, we walked the car together and I was given an agreed upon price. After the wash was completed, I was then told the car wasn't properly evaluated and the price would be higher because it "took longer than expected" - not due to anything unforeseen. I don't think that's acceptable. Pricing should be clear and agreed upon before any work begins -- not adjusted once the job is already complete. In this situation, it was never communicated that the price may be adjusted. It puts the customer in a difficult position and takes away from an otherwise positive experience. Again, the end result was great, which is why I'm not rating lower. But the pricing process needs to be more upfront and transparent. I'd recommend double confirming a firm price before they start to avoid any surprises.

They were able to schedule me to drop off my car and was awesome in rescheduling me when I wanted an earlier date! I loved the appointment reminders and confirmation texts. It tells me you prioritize your clients and respect their time and you're organized! We left our other tint shop because they got so disorganized and started taking too many people at once which forced delayed pickup. I'm taking almost 10PM. Anyway I wanted to give a shoutout to their front staff LEXI who was so responsive the day of my appointment when I had a hiccup that morning. She greeted us upon check-in, covered what we're there for and was very kind and knowledgeable as well. She also got us to add an extra service which we usually skip. However she presented to us the product, educated us on the "pros" and we went for it! We also informed them if they can get everything done at a specific time since we had our little human with us. She didn't promise but she said they'll try their very best and to contact me asap! The installers did just that. Lexi called us about 20 mins earlier than said time. Not only did they complete the job much earlier than we anticipated, their work was phenomenal! We were very pleased with the results when we saw the windows and windshield as well as a small PPF area that I wanted done, in person! Their pricing is very appropriate for the quality of their services and we are now using G5 as go-to for all things tint and PPF! Thank you G5 for being the best and for hiring such an incredible team! We wish you more success!
