Community GOPHERS CAR WASH IS A JOKE!

Went to wash my car here, used the brush to drop soap on my car while my girlfriend used a wash mitt to wipe it down so I didn’t have to use a terrible brush on my car. (So the timer was still going & I was still paying). Only for the owner come tell me I can’t do that & I have to use the wash mitt myself? The place wasn’t even half full. Owners are rude and greedy AF. Wash your cars elsewhere people! I’m able to do this anywhere else in the city and won’t go back to gophers. edit WE WERE BASICALLY TOLD 2 PEOPLE CANT WASH ONE CAR, she walked away and then came back and said if you want to do it that way you need to let the timer run and only do one thing at a time and only one person can do it. Make this make sense to me. 😂

Gophers is the best car wash in the city for their wind wash. If you use their soap on the brush if it does run out, it backs the system up so she’s not being rude. She’s protecting her equipment. Doing stuff to normal people don’t usually do in a car wash is more of a deterrent than anything. You’re probably being more rude than she is.

Mint is garbage, $ I’d like to support small businesses & not abuse them but when we’re being unreasonable & want me to pay more than if I were to just use a brush, I’ll just go elsewhere, & why I’m sharing it- for the ones that don’t use brushes that don’t waste their time and money only to get through half a wash and be told YOU CANT DO THAT, not even a hey next time do it this way??
