Isn't there a 100% car wash place on Stevens Creek near the Nissan Dealership? Haven't been there yet but I've heard a few members have gone there already. Damn...I got to wash my car too. It's freakin dirty! My rims don't look polished but more brown in color.

Lol, got my car serviced yesterday for the rear axle click. They detail it whenever I bring it in. I love that.

San Thomas and Steven's creek is Marlin's. They do good work as long as the lines are short (rare unless it's raining or you go at an awesome time that no one else thinks of). They aren't hand wash though.

I think GTNPU was talking about the place I take my cars to...Which is on Steven's creek near the Nissan dealership and Lawrence expressway. It's called Country club. They do really nice work and it's all hand wash. The prices are better than Marlin's and you can even watch them throughout all the stages of the cleaning. You can also upgrade your package to hell to make it expensive. I have them do a 'bucket wash' and detailing to my Supra. That's where it doesn't even go onto the rail and only one guy spends an hour washing and detailing your car (anywhere from $30-$60 for this special treatment).

Thats what I had Marlins do, hand wash only. They called it a quick detail. It came out alright. I usually spend anywhere from 2-3hrs myself unless its just a wash. It was 39.99. I can't tell if they used any wax or quick detailer so I assume, No.

Oh okay. That's cool; I didn't know Marlin's had a 100% hand wash at all. They have a wash and wax job for around that price (if I recall correctly), so you might've got the wax treatment.
