Good wash, but super slow line. The high end washes take several minutes, so you will get your money's worth. But you will be in line to get it. My coworker called my car shiny the next morning. Never got a complement post car wash before. I plan on going back when it's less busy.

The only brushless around federal way I know of. If you’re here, you already know. You don’t want brushes grinding dirt, sand, and whatever else into your paint like sandpaper. A brushless wash avoids that risk, but let’s be real, it won’t get your car perfectly clean. Without physical contact, no soap or pressure washer can fully break down grime like a proper hand wash with clean mitts. The chemicals do their best, but some dirt stays behind. Plus, if you go during peak times like Fridays, weekends, or midday, it can be packed, leading to longer wait times. As for all the extras, the cheapest basic wash or the step up with undercarriage care is all you really need. The rest won’t replace a proper wax or deep clean. Still, a brushless wash is just a maintenance pass. Automated washes are a gamble. Who knows what just went through? A mud-caked truck, a concrete-dusted work van, or worse. The risk of contamination is endless. To get the best experience, go on a weekday when it’s quieter. Use brushless as a safe preliminary rinse, then follow up with your own clean materials for a real wash.

This Touchless car wash works well. It is open 24hrs, and I would recommend going during off peak hours. 2 car ahead of me, I had to wait about 10-15 minutes. 4 price points between $8-$15 bucks. CC only. It is possible to pay inside(I think it is) code possible) .

Do not come to this car wash at all. IT DOES NOT CLEAN YOUR VEHICLE AND YOU WILL NOT GET YOUR MONEY’s WORTH. My 1st time today and my last time. PLUS THE WAIT FOR ME WAS 20 mins and I was 3 cars behind. Not worth the wait and not worth the money.

The system is completely automated and brushless. Their prices range from $8-14 depending on what kind of service you are looking for. I came in with a muddy car at the tail end of a road trip and the end result was pretty good.

Always busy. Car wash is always busy too. Usually stocked with items but they were out of certain rockstars and the snacks area I’m usually circling because I can’t find what I want at the moment. Customer service is usually nice.

Make sure to fold in your mirrors. The polish poured out. Seems wasteful and costly to the company plus a lot it poured out onto the floor in front of my vehicle. The machine probably needs adjusting. The price is great. When ever I am in the area, I will wash my vehicle there. The machine did a great job.

Trapped in line for over 27 minutes because the car wash glitched out several times. My wife goes here pretty often and seems like every other time. The line is super slow and takes forever. They really need to get some sort of time counter at the beginning of the line so you can make a decision if it seemed worth getting in the line.

Been there twice and not worth the time regardless the price they offer versus their competitors. The first time I went was seamless and easy, but not a very good wash. It’s too open of a lane to truly do everything it professed it can do. I rather do it myself with the lack of wax and dirt still around. Lastly, the second and final time I was over a 20 minute wait and not as good as the first time. Not worth the time!

Please find my car completely covered in dirt after ordering the platinum car wash. Showed the owners. They treated me awfully, said it was not thier fault, and wanted $5 in “cash” to go through the wash again.

Have been coming here for a while since it opened and have usually gotten a good car wash but today it was so bad I could have done better with a garden hose!! It dripped water out on my car a few drops at a time for the entire wash and it only pressure washed the right side of my car for 3 seconds. My car is just as dirty as it went in minus the pine needles but that’s it don’t go here it’s 15 dollars gone. ( photo taken after wash )

One of the better touchless car washes around. It was decently priced too. $14 for the top tier wash. All the other ones I’ve been to have been $20 plus. It wasn’t perfect but I haven’t found a touchless that was good as this one. The wait for the wash was kinda long but there is only one wash bay. Definitely my new spot for a car wash when I’m in the area.

Usually 5-7min per vehicle depending on the selected service and upgrades. The entire carwash itself has no maintenance nor cleaning. Moss growth on their equipments. Our vehicle came out with lines of dried soap throughout. It doesn't clean thoroughly I'd say 3/5 for cleanliness.

Paid $14 to wash of the snow dirt off my car. It wasn't covered in thick dirt. Definitely did NOT get what I paid for🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️ When it first opened up, I would go there & it did really well washing my car. It doesn't even look like it was washed at all. What a ripoff.

This wash is average. These spray only type of car washes leave a film of dirt behind if my car wasn't waxed in the current season. You have to adjust your expectations for what a spray only wash can do. It's a wait for 5 mins per car which seems typical of any one at a time style car wash. If my car is super dirty and not waxed this season, I'd only spend on the basic wash or go to a different type of car wash.

Went on a Thursday afternoon, arrived at about 12:40 with 6 cars ahead of me. First time here so I didn't know how long it would take. Turns out about 5 to 7 min per car so I finally left at 1:25 so I spent about 40 min there. I would not recommend unless there are no cars or you are not in a hurry. Definitely not on your lunch break like I was. However the touchless did a decent job on my vehicle (I have a Jeep wrangler), it didn't get everything but that's expected at all car washes. It washed it well enough for me to do some touch ups when I get home. I posted photos of the pricing also.

Paid premium top car wash package which cost $18 for my car to come out dirty, used to be good but not anymore. They need to fix their equipment before ill return. See the black lines of dirt. This picture of course was taken after the carwash. Update: After speaking with someone over the phone they said I could come in for a refund. Once I got to the store they said I couldn't have a refund and they just offered me another free car wash which would produce the same issues with the car wash in the 1st place. They have lost a seasoned customer, I will not be back. Save your money go elsewhere.
