Very friendly staff! But I paid for a higher priced car wash and end result wasn’t worth it. I had to wipe water spots and clean headlights and bug debris from hood when I got home because it wasn’t done completely.

I don’t normally detail my truck, but my truck isn’t to messy either. I spilled a cup of coffee and wanted to get it detailed. Going price was $300 with some discounts. I emptied my truck and was disappointed that the glove box, ash tray and center console wasn’t cleaned. The center console had coffe goop clearly visible. Back seat cup holder s weren’t cleaned and the wheel were poorly cleaned too.

Best car wash in town! The membership is so worth it. I have 3 kids who think my car is a trash can so they’re really saving my life from the stank.

I come often to get my car washed and cleaned inside. Y’all always do a great job. I’ve never been disappointed with your service. All employees are kind, helpful and know how to get the job done.

We paid $45 for a full service. They didnt do anything other than pass it through their automatic wash. They USED to have excellent service. Dont waste your money.

Sparkling Image on Rosedale does an outstanding job every single time. The staff is always friendly, professional, and go above and beyond. You can tell they take pride in their work, and it makes a huge difference. Reliable, thorough, and always positive. Highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a top-tier car wash company in Bakersfield.

I arrived and was given an overwhelming list of options. Luckily the associate saw this and suggested the Basic package! I paid and they took my chariot away. Windows let you see your car through the whole process and then you can sit inside and watch them hand dry your car. A team of four tackled my baby cleaning inside and out. They did a great job considering my car was dusty from all the rain lately.

Staff was very friendly, but they did a very mediocre job. I paid $89 to get my truck cleaned and this is how they gave it to me. They didn’t even wipe down the surfaces. At least it smells clean now…

After 6 hours my car wasn’t done and it’s that $300 detail I had to tell them I had to go. They said it was done they were just getting the wax off. For a $300 detail my car look ok but I’ve taken my moms car in before that she delivers mail out of , pai half the price and it looked brand new. My car was just wiped down and they didn’t even shampoo the whole seats . And the dash is spotty some shiny some dull along with terrible streaks inside my windows

I’m a huge fan of sparkling image, I’ve been going to these locations for almost 20yrs, it’s definitely a Bakersfield staple with local roots. I especially love the Rosedale location, it’s centrally located and the staff is always so amazing and friendly, consistently providing exceptional service. I trust my vehicle with them and am always grateful for the wonderful atmosphere and amenities they offer! They take great care and really offer a high standard of service.

The dryers & detailers work hard and constant moving! Managment is very attentive. Heidi is always going above and beyond always friendly and honest. The oil department always does a great job!

I’ve been a customer here for years, but my visit on 12/15/25 was the final straw. I paid for the full-service spray wax package, and when my truck was finished, it looked almost as dirty as when I arrived. The interior still had visible dust and dirt on the floors and door panels, and the exterior clearly hadn’t been properly cleaned. I brought this to their attention and was offered a redo. Unfortunately, the second attempt was no better — the truck was still dirty. I then spoke with the manager, Manny, who told me to come back the next day and said he would comp an ultimate detail to make things right. When I returned the following day, Manny denied ever saying that and instead offered the same basic wash that had already failed twice. At that point, it was clear they had no intention of standing behind their work or their word. To make matters worse, the staff was rude and overly pushy about upselling services, despite the poor quality of the work being done. Very disappointing experience from a place I trusted for years.

I paid 36 bucks for a wash and wiped down inside. Definitely not wiped down they didn’t vacuum well. I removed any trash before coming. Disappointed….

Was a great experience. We arrived in the wrong spot and a worker in the morning was very friendly and answered our questions. He directed us to the right way to enter the car wash. From start to finish we got great customer service.

Was told an hour for a wash and wax, I paid $130 and it took 2 hours for this. This location needs to have better Quality control management cause this is unacceptable to have overspray on my seats, have water spots after a wax, one tire with shine and the other without, and the running boards still dirty for a $130 service. I will not be going to this place ever again and I highly recommend that everyone go elsewhere.

I paid $84.99 for a full car detailing and expected to receive a clean vehicle, but that was not the case. There were still bird droppings on multiple areas that clearly hadn’t been cleaned, even after waiting nearly 50 minutes. For the price and time spent, this level of service is absolutely unacceptable. Definitely not worth the money.

Paid for the $44 full service spray wax a the top half of the car looks good but the bottom half was a total MISS!! Tire shine lasted about an hour and no shine or treatment was put on trim areas at all. Dirt from before the wash was still present. See pics for details. Probably won’t come here again. Too bad I was excited to get this clean.
