    Exiting wheel bright and tire shine.
    Sidney W.

    The prewash section is the best: long brush with plastic bristles to get the stubborn bugs off, short handle plastic bristles for the tighter spots and finally a soft sponge to get inside your rims where brake dust collects. All of these tools are soaking in a big tub of soapy water which is drained daily unlike other car wash pretreatment tubs full of sand and bugs. The car wash itself pours the largest amount of soap and water I've ever seen. I'm still puzzled at how so much solution discharge is profitable. If you choose the additional tire shine you won't be disappointed by the usual hit and miss patchwork of regular machines. The free vacuum area contains over 20 powerful vacuums with its own garbage can for larger debris. It really is the best bang for your buck.

    Best Drive through car wash I've been to spent $12 got a quality wash. It was well worth it. Their machines aren't dirty they keep their stuff clean.

    Directions were not clear and the person guiding me wasn't helpful and distracting from the directions they had.

    Do the staff use a wet brush on your car before it goes through the automated wash?

    “There is a spacious area for the vacuums, but pro tip: use the vacuums on the side of the car wash for stronger suction.”

    Getting my car washed here is a treat. Very affordable wash options that get your car clean. Why…read morespend an hour and $20 bucks elsewhere when you can come to Pelican Pointe Car Wash? When I pull up, I get out and get the big brush on a stick and scrub my grille and other parts of the car that may have excessive dirt. Then I head for the wash. There is always a helpful employee near the machine where you pay. Last time the machine wouldn't take my dollar so the nice lady used a card to get me through. Just before being directed into the wash, there is someone to scrub the rear of your vehicle to make sure it gets extra clean. Once inside the wash, there are suds galore!! I've been so some of these gas station car washes and I was lucky if I got any soap at all. Here at Pelican Pointe the suds are everywhere. They are pink, yellow, blue. I'm not sure if the suds are colored or if it's just the lights but either way it's like a foam party. My kids love it. There are signs in the wash to let you know exactly what is happening such as Tire Shine and things like that. At the end the blower dries your car and you roll out and around to the vacuums. I always bring my kids to assist with the vacuuming while I sit there and give orders. For $1.00 you can get your mats cleaned. It's probably more like $2 because if you have 4 mats you need two cycles. But they certainly do get clean. Once, I spilled syrup on the mat and it took a couple of days before I could get to Pelican Pointe. By the time I got there, the syrup had dried on the carpeted floor mat. No worries, the mat cleaner took it right off. Impressive, right?! There are also other things for sale such as air fresheners, towels, dashboard and window cleaners, etc. In all, the process takes me less than 20 minutes. As long as Pelican Pointe Car Wash is around, I'll take my car there.

This was the greatest, but after it closed for maintenance, it has never been the same. The cars now come out wet! The last thing you want after a wash is to use your windshield wipers! I appreciate the amenities (I don't use) microfiber towels, window cleaner, and manual blower. I COME TO ROLL IN AND ROLL OUT WITH A CLEAN DRY CAR! Not interested in parking and finishing by hand due to the inadequate new lowered automated standard!

I'm a little too busy and lazy to wash my own car (plus I have no hose connection on my house. Weird, huh?), so I searched for a manual or touchless carwash. I found On The Spot through a Google search, and decided to give it a try because it's close to my work. I called and spoke to Tyrone. I think he's the owner, and he was very accommodating about getting my car scheduled quickly for a simple exterior wash. That particular service isn't listed on their standard menu, but Tyrone quoted me a reasonable $50 to hand wash and vacuum. When I arrived at my appointment time, I was promptly greeted and invited to wait inside in the AC (thank God) while my car was washed. I left my car where it was and went in. The waiting area is simple but comfortable with a TV playing some recent NBA game. It wasn't long before I was being called back out because my car was done! It was surprisingly fast, and my car looked great! I had even asked if they would apply a tire dressing I had brought myself, and they did it with no problem and no extra charge. Overall, I'm very happy with the service and value of On The Spot, and I'll be using them for my regular car washes. I think I'll explore the detailing at some point too. The location is a little buried in the Clearview/Veterans area behind the freeway entrances, but it's worth the hunt. Thanks Tyrone!

For some people, this wouldn't be too bad, but considering I travel up and down the US at least twice a year and have two dogs who love to shed, it was a pretty big ask for anyone to tackle that interior. Was it more than I wanted to pay? Yes. Did it need it, and so I agreed to it? Also yes. I called and was able to get in the same day that I wanted to sell the car. It took almost an hour and a half to really get in there and get it all cleaned out. However, everything looked so beautiful when it was completed. I brought a book with me to wait in their nice, air-conditioned waiting room. I'm not going to say that the car looked as good as new, but after 11 years with two crazy dogs and 154K miles? It was pretty damn impressive. The guys there were great, and the service was well worth it. I even got top dollars for my very old car. Thanks, y'all!
