Default Help!

I need to find someone to hand wash my brand new baby 2019 Grand Sport on a weekly basis. I am new to Carmichael area and want to find someone because I have old injuries that prevent me from washing it the way I do. Hell if I could shrink it, I would put it in my whirlpool tub 🛀 and wash her like a baby 👶.

Appreciate any any heads up!

Good day. I would try Apperance Solutions (916-402-9325) in Sacramento. I've had lots of work done with them (tiny, Xpek PPF, etc). They offer hand car washes for between $40 and $50. They do an excellent job and they take their time.

Mike is the owner. Feel free to tell him Miguel sent you. You can setup an appointment before you take the car in.

Thanks. That’s really reasonable. Will give him a call tomorrow. Don’t want to bug him on a Sunday. 👍😎

By the way, he is very busy. Leave a message and be patient. He will call you back and it will get done.

You can try a mobile car wash. Good reviews on Yelp.

Appearance Solutions can take care of it. They install ceramic Xpel tint. I've had many cars tinted there.

The only problem is, he’s to busy to call back or do anything. 😟

You could also considering having the entire car wrapped in XPEL/SUNTEK paint protection film for $4-5K or having it ceramic coated for $1-2K.
