    I had a great experience with Ride on Drive. It was my first time getting my car detailed (interior only) and they were very responsive when I was shopping around for a quote. Wally serviced my Prius and did a fantastic job! He took his time and the end results are great. My main concerns were getting rid of the dog hair and doggy odor and he delivered. I'd be happy to recommend him and Ride on Drive for ease, quality and excellent communication.

    Tldr: Wally is the best! His work is amazing! This is the first time I had my car detailed. I was always cheap about car washing and a little dirt in the floor never bothered me. But since moving to downtown SF, I could not find a convenient drive through car wash like Lozano's in the South Bay and Peninsula. So my call to Ride On Drive was initially reluctant. But I completely changed my mind! The technician who worked in my car was Wally. He drove a well cared for Acura that had been modified for racing and told me he would take his car to a car show the next day. I could tell this was someone who really liked cars. I was amazed at the water-free solution he used to clean my car. When he first told me he did not need water I was concerned about scratches. The solution he used removed all the gunk and dirt without scratching. It left a water repellent surface. So when it rained the next day I did not have any water stains! I was also impressed at the interior of the car. It was vacuumed clean and felt like a new car. I attached a picture so you can all see! Every nook and corner was thoroughly cleaned. I think it was cleaner than when I got it from the dealer! Ride on Drive is much more expensive than Lozano's but worth it. When you call them, try to get Wally. Wally is someone who will take care of your car. He definitely knows about cars and how to care for them. If you need your car to look and feel like a new car, definitely check them out!

    Highly recommend their service. I had a passenger that vomited in my car and as much as I tried to clean it, the leather was perforated. I gave Ride On Drive a call (you can make an appointment online) and after explaining what happened and showing them pictures of my car they were able to set up an appointment by text. Wally, my detailer, showed up to my place exactly on time. He was friendly, communicative and it was reassuring to know he did detailing for showroom cars. I booked the tier 2 Interior Detailing and he said it would take 2 hours so I waited inside while he worked his magic. Around 2hrs later he let me know he was finished and I was more than satisfied. There were no remains of the throw up and the entirety of the interior was spotless. I would definitely recommend them to others and next I have to try their exterior detailing.

    Wally did a great job with my car this afternoon! The process was super easy. I have street parking and he was able to work at the spot my car was parked at. I had some tough water spots on my ceramic coating which I wasn't able to get out myself but they are gone now! He was also very responsive and answered all of my follow up questions

    I got the bronze package and I couldn't be happier. The gentleman that did the works on my car was very professional he did a great job. I had recently went on a trip to Tahoe and I was to tired to clean my car so I booked an appointment and like I said, I couldn't be happier my car looks great inside and out. Now it looks and smells fresh and clean and ready to hit the streets again!!!

    My baby after Shayan and his team detailed it. (The missing spots on the step by the window has always been there)

    Wally's attention to detail is top tier and has the ability to make your car look better than when it was new. Highly recommended.

Most of the jobs were for full PPF + ceramic coating of new vehicles, but they've also performed a couple of non-PPF paint correction, detailing, and ceramic coating work on well-used vehicles not eligible for PPF. In all cases, California Detailing produced fantastic results that made the new cars look better than they were at dealer delivery and the well-used vehicles look as close to new as possible. For vehicles that we've subsequently sold, California Detailing's attentive work helped protect their resale value. Even when we don't have big jobs pending, we drop by their shop a few times a year for installation inspections and touch-ups (no charge during PPF or ceramic coating warranty period). In addition to being skilled professionals, California Detailing also have great customer service that easily makes my family and me feel at home during our visits. Excellent and lasting results, great people, convenient location, and timely scheduling. We'll see them again soon!

I had never had my car detailed before because it never seemed like a necessity, but was prepping for family to visit and it hit me that the car looked pretty beat up inside and out. Not gonna lie - it felt expensive - but they did an amazing job. They were up front and explained exactly what they were going to do. They did need to see the car before confirming a final quote. They did the full internal and external job and went through every nook and cranny until it shined. I dropped the car off at 9am and picked up a little after 5pm. While I was tempted by the convenience of mobile detailers, i ultimately chose the fixed location and don't regret it.

I have been using this semi-self service car wash for several years since it opened. It is clean, convenient to our home in Potrero Hill neighborhood, Bernal Heights, The Mission and Mission Bay and Bay View. Today is Julyb1, 2025 and I arrived around noon with 4 to 7 car waiting in line while I drove into the vacuum space before washing. There are trash cans to use along with a credit card vacuum machine with long hoses to reach both sides of your vehicle. The vacuum suction his very strong and easy to use. The car wash associates are visible and very attentive to trash removal and assisting at check in. There is a left lane to expedite your exit & leave if you already washed your vehicle. By the time I finished vacuuming and cleaning the interior there wasn't anyone waiting in line and I was able to head toward the self service payment kiosk. The process is simple and cost $20 or they have a $39 monthly club for unlimited car washes. I previously had joined before my vehicle was out for repair for 5 months. I now just pay the single car wash since its been well over a month since I had it washed and no longer a member of the club. The car wash attendants guide you into the car wash tracks and spray your vehicle from both sides from the front hood to the back. They use some spinner brushes, rags washers, high powered blowers and a stop/wait and go light signal to proceed after the wash is complete. If you are in the Bay Shore neighborhood I recommend giving Shine-N-Seal car wash. They have a bright, clean appearance with several whimsical cartoons on the walls with a Seal.
