While there is nothing better than driving around town, it can also expose your car to elements that have the potential to leave water spots. While the spots of water will evaporate, they can leave minerals like calcium and magnesium on your car’s paintwork. The Australian sun can then in turn cause these spots to […]

Best result on an assisted auto wash I've ever used, reasonably priced + complimentary vacuums and towels. Clearly well staffed and taken care of. Busy but the wait from street level was less than 5 minutes. Will be returning / recommending.

Great value for money. Clean gets clean pretty well. Can get a little too busy, would be good in there was an app that shows how busy the car wash is, so I can check it before deciding to go to the wash

Grand car wash in Ivanhoe is an awesome automated car wash business. The staff are considerate, friendly and helpful.The only thing I would fix is the "Unlimited" signs you have everywhere.I've been told by staff that it's one wash per car, per day and thus making it limited.Regards,Diah Hammoud

Car ended up cleaner than other car washes. Easy to pay and drive through. Free vacuum is a nice bonus.

They have definitely done their research and incorporated some of the most advanced chemicals there is when it comes to protecting your car whilst providing enough strength to give your car that clean it needs ( made sure to ask prior as I am very cautious when it comes to my car)Not like your ordinary automatic (touch-less) car wash which uses those harsh chemicals and eventually makes your car look like your rusted lawn mower.this place is actually staffed which do some of the work needed prior to entering the wash ‘tunnel’ in order to avoid having to use those corrosive chemicals.And to top it off a free vacuum station if you choose to tidy up indoors at the end.I chose a membership option as I will be coming back on a regular basis which saves me coin on the already similar prices they have at some automatic car washes, which by the way you should never be using.100% recommended and impressed.

Now that I have found this car wash it is the only one I will ever go to!Easy way to choose your desired service and pay via touch screen, they hose down the car prior to the auto clean, then you get to use the vacuum for free for the inside of the car.Staff were friendly to check if I needed any assistance and helped out with some troublesome mould spots on my roof.

Undoubtedly the best drive through car wash around. Sparkling clean, great value, and never experienced an issue. Plus, the free vacuum cleaners are a lifesaver. Keep up the great work.

Update 2024: This Business deserves a 5 Star review. They survived the Lock down and in today's high cost of living times, they are still able to keep their Basic wash at $18. Which is perhaps the best value for money auto car wash joint in Melbourne.Original Review from 2020.$15 basic wash is very good already. The free vacuum stations are great!

Amazing car wash place. Friendly staff and affordable car wash packages to chose from. By far the best car wash place in Melbourne. Keep it up 👏👏👏

This is so much fun. It’s a very safe water tunnel style car wash with 2 people doing a pre wash the pop your car into neutral for the ride through. It’s like going to Disneyland with all of the coloured lights and cleaning action. Then limitless vacuum bays with wiping towels available. I love it

I was always wary of automatic car washes as mostly they did a poor job. This car wash changed my mind and is the bees knees. You go in dirty and come out clean...simple and as it should be.It removes difficult stains like bird droppings etc. with ease. Why the others fail but this one doesn't I don't know. All I know is I keep coming back.

Serhan and his team went over and above today to make sure my car was clean, as it had stubborn marks from a long regional drive. It's refreshing to find people who are committed to customer service because they genuinely care and are nice people. I've been going to this car wash for years, with the free vacuum, drying cloths, and quick and effective wash. Today required a special mention because they didn't have to but they did anyway, and I appreciated the extra effort. A heart-felt thank you!

Amazing car wash! Got a free wash for my new car and it was amazing, super easy to organise and the wash itself was spotless! Staff super friendly and professional! Will tell all of my friends and family about this car wash due to it being super affordable. Will be back!!!!!!!!

Pretty amazing results, car came out spotless. Would recommend a quick chamois at the end as it doesn’t come out completely dry. Was my first visit here and was a bit going on, you get a few staff pre soak your car at the start which is impressive, then through the tunnel on a conveyor belt, needs to be in neutral and no braking. The whole process only takes a few minutes it’s super quick. I went with the $25 premium wash with free vacuum at the end. Will definitely head back here, can’t fault anything about it, the cleaning is really soft and easy on the car, Highly recommend.
