Need Rec. for best wash/wax service in/around SF

Hi all,
I'm too lazy/busy to spend hours keeping my black G looking sharp. But I am willing to pay up for it to be kept looking good without the worry of scratches/swirls. Wheres the best places to take it. I'd probably be willing to pay up to 100 bucks(not sure how much this usually costs or how often i will need to do it?) but prefer to pay less

Wow . . . That could get quite pricey. To maintain a sharp looking black G . . . I would think that your car would need a washing at least once every two weeks, if not more often, depending on miles driven and parking accommodations.

Edit: Years ago, I used to send my bimmers to a shop located in San Mateo for detailing. If I can find the name and number, I'll post it.

check out Prime Auto Detail in Daly City or Luxury Auto Detail I think in Belmont or San Mateo. But to keep a black G looking its best $100 isn't going to cut it unless you do it yourself.

Try ADS Mobile in San Bruno. He'll detail your car at a reasonable price and then wash/maintain it afterwards for $20 each visit. I hade my black sedan detaile dthere and he (Phil) did an excellent job, but I live in the East Bay so getting to SB for a wash is a hassle.

thanks for the suggestions. I don't really drive my G too much during the week. and I have garage parking. So I don't see myself getting it washed/waxed more than once a month if that, more like once every 1.5-2 months I'm thinking. Thats why I figure I'm willing to pay up to 100 bucks(I thought this was a high amount too :/ ) Any reputable places in the city?
thanks again guys!

You should really give ADS-Mobile a try. San Bruno is less than 10 minutes away from the city.

Their wash/wax runs about $75.

Give Phil a call at 650-872-1263, and let him know Boris sent you. He will certainly take care of you, and your G will be looking gorgeous.

Who, the thread poster or Phil?

You never dropped your name, so I decided to take over.

Besides, it's a long drive for you.
