TOO DIRTY! This is what I've been told by the staff. I opted for the $40 wash for my hatchback work car, and was told I need to pay a surcharge! "We need to add extra chemicals cause it caked with mud" (I just wiped the 'dirt' off with my hands!), the other was that their "sponges and brushes won't last!" A high pressure hose would have easily cleaned it, but not according to the staff. The gentleman then checked inside the car at drivers side and said theres too much dirt for vacuum cleaner, theres no garbage other than a few tiny leaves and normal dust and dirt that can be expected, needless to say the passenger and back are spotless not even a bit of dust (which means they wouldn't even need to clean it tbh) well Prime shine I thought you guys were a carwash, did you expect me to bring my car to you clean? Will never recommend nor take my cars/bikes to you ever again!

  • Kate Mannix

Very, very poor! Spent $55 NOT to have my car properly vacuumed, NOT to have dust and finger marks removed. Some hand sanitizer residue was not removed - because they ‘don’t do that’. I wiped interior chrome finishes with my hand and got a better result. I did this in front of the car wash attendants who ARGUED that I was asking for more service than that for which I had paid. No offer to vacuum where I had pointed out that dirt remained. ‘It’s very difficult,’ the man said. This car did NOT arrive especially dirty. I had cleaned it myself a week before, and wanted a better job because I want to sell it. I was not expecting detailing. I was just looking for clean. Do NOT bother with this alleged service

  • Terry Li

Out of all the hand car wash places I have been to in 10 years, this one was the worst by a long shot. Exterior not cleaned properly, wheels not cleaned properly, dashboard not wiped, they vacuumed the floor mats but didn’t bother taking them out and vacuuming underneath them or the surrounding areas, they left the car to bake in the sun for 30 minutes after washing the car which caused the car to be covered in hard water spots. I spent another 1 hour at home with a micro fibre cloth and detail spray and water spot remover to fix their mess and all the parts they didn’t clean. DO NOT COME HERE

  • Miko Roxas

I think there are some boys who are good and some who does not have the experience cleaning cars. They are trying to do a good job. But so many of them in one car and very inefficient. Lots of chats happening between the boys thus expect long waiting times. I think they have to cut their staff and get more efficiency. Some are more concerned drinking coffee than finishing the job. I think if I have hours to spare for a car wash I will come back but waiting time here is not reasonable. Not because they have cars in line but because the boys are heavily socializing.

  • Jennie Stewart

So Stoked!!! Amazing results. Incredible. (All the little black spots are no longer there). Car was detailed better than when I picked it up from the dealership. Awesome bunch of polite guys who are professional, dedicated and committed to their work. Went home and got my sisters car, where I have never seen it look so amazing. I have recommended Prime Shine Car Wash at North Rocks to some friends who are looking forward to their next car detail there. They heard the elation in my voice and were sold. Thank you so much guys…. See you next time….. J

I used this service in June 2021 but wrote the review under the former management’s website by mistake. I am reposting it here now. I had a very good first experience at Scooters. My car (Toyota Yaris) is looking bright and shiny at an extremely reasonable price compared to other cash wash facilities around this area. The staff are super courteous and friendly. The $2 cappuccino very decent. Clean and pleasant place to sit and wait. The wait was only about 45 minutes. Very happy customer who will definitely return when the next wash is due.

  • Hector Xu

Last time I went there, they said my car was dirty, and wanted to charge me extra. I did pay and thought nothing of it. Today I went there they tried to do the same thing again, the car was not very dirty at all. It just dawned on me that they must try it on all the time! (or the kid is trying to avoid work) So I just took the car down the road to Crazy Car wash in the shopping center 2 minutes away. Website says $45, sign at the place says $50, but want to charge $60, I will not be coming again.

They reneged on the quote at last minute after I had paid. Quoted me at the car and I opened the door for an inspection. . Paid for $100 upfront clean vacuum and polish. 10 minutes before the end the guy came to me in coffee shop and said I needed to pay $20 in order for them to vacuum the dog hair. Even though I had already paid for ‘a vacuum’ I agreed. Too tired to argue. NEVER GOING BACK. EVEN THOUGH MY AMAZING MECHANIC IS RIGHT NEXT FOOR. Clearly they have form too.

  • Steve Laing

Went at 8.30am and no worker was around. Waited until 9am and left. Have been coming here for the last 9 years and when I brought my car back at 12pm was informed will take around 2 hours. It's now 4.30pm and the car is still not ready. Seems new staff members or has been a change of ownership as not a great experience. The person at the end apologised but informed me everyone is new staff including him. This is unfortunate as I think I might have to go somewhere else.

  • Natalie Phelan

OMG! Incredible! My car was well and truly a mess inside and out after my husband has been driving it at our rural property in the paddocks and on the dirt roads. (My car is only 1 1/2 years old) It was caked in mud and absolutely filthy inside! I took it in for "the full works" and WOW!! A New Car again!! A magnificent job!! HIGHLY recommended!! Will definitely be my long term car wash/detailing place from now on!! Well worth the money!

  • Deepu Jacob

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE. Some photos given as example for post clean photos . When enquired the response was below . 1) inexperienced guys were doing the clean 2) lots of cars in line for clean 3) My car was very messy I agree to comment 3 . But that was the main reason i wanted to get it professionally cleaned . Spent money for a job that o could have done much better than them who claimed to be professionals . Never coming back .

  • Patrick Ayoub

As I arrived at prime shine car wash, they were packing up for home time, the staff were happy to stay back and clean my car in there own time also doing a Magnificent job to my car, outstanding service by all the staff and very friendly personality’s especially promise who often serves me, I will only come to prime shine car wash as staff take caution washing the car and always do a terrific job, 10/10 in every way!

  • Milo Zav

Not experience at anything bad job they damaged my kilometre glass because that guy had the ring in his fingers my car is a expensive car ,who wanna now answer it ! I saw it after 2 days , don’t trust them they don’t have responsibile I’m very angry can’t do anything someone answer me !!!! Spending 50$ for scratching my kilometr glass,

  • MF I

Service was extremely slow. It took 3 hours for them just to wash n vaccum my sedan car (no wax, detailing, etc)!! Never in my life have I spent this much time at any car wash! And when I complained, I was rudely told that there were 7 cars before mine!! That was their justification! With 3 bays open at a time, it wouldn't have taken even half that time with even 10 cars! Never going back to them again!!

  • Sunil Gambhir

Some Experiences leave great impact on human mind. One of them was me visiting Prime Shine car wash North Rocks for my Audi Q7. Extremely professional & courteous, committed. They made sure that my car is thoroughly clean & shiny. I had never seen that owner himself taking so much interest in minute details of the service provided. You guys are just amazing. The best car wash I ever had.

  • Shaun Bryson

Drove in, I was stared at while I stood around for a few minutes waiting to be served, no one bothered to even give me the time of day so I went inside, stood around for a few more minutes, no one bothered to serve me so I walked outside again. If you didn’t want my business, just tell me you’re too busy, I would have understood. Don’t just pretend like I don’t exist.

  • Ryan F

Some of the most profound events one will experience in their lives: your first solo travel, marriage, the birth of a child, and seeing your car as clean as when it first rolled off the showroom floor. I can't specify which, but Prime Shine Carwash delivered on one of these in full. Excellent attention to detail, fantastic pricing, well behaved kid!

  • Jenny James

Got the exterior wash priced at $25 but was charged an extra $10 because my car was “extra dirty”. Gentlemen informed me that it’s an extra $20-30 but he is giving me a discount. Feeling handcuffed I went ahead. I watched carefully and John did a great job on the tyres, he worked diligently and was pleasant. Overall it was an average experience.

  • Gang Cheng

1 star is already too much for this car wash service. I spent A$50 for washing inside and out. The car was just roughly sprayed and vacuumed. Even the dust on the dashboard was not wiped. The wheels are still dirty. Definitely won't come back to this shop again. Definitely won't recommend this shop to anyone else either. Bad experience

  • KL LK

1 star review people need to get a life. Got a wash today. $59, no issues. the rent this guy must pay is enormous. Great location right under Castle Towers. Very convenient. Top service. 1 star review people, be nice and if you want premium detailing on your car go to a professional detailer and pay top dollar.

  • loveneet kaur

Incredible attention to detail offered at an amazing price. The staff and management are always nothing but friendly and offer such a timely and reliable service (plus amazing coffee made by their in house barista). My car looks brand new again! Will definitely be back soon.

  • Desikan Saran

Had a excellent service by them, they are so professional and mainly they do awesome service for such a bargain price I got to mention the staff there, all well experienced and so friendly, get up need to get your car washed think no more PRIME SHINE IT IS❤️ …

  • Bruce Song

My car was parked under a tree, it was pretty dirty. Mr. Promise and his team gave me very good price and cleaned the car professionaly. The car looks new after cleaning. The guys working here are very kindly as well. I will surely wash my car here next time.

  • Lee-Anne Bagnat

When I arrived there was 2 cars in front and was told it would take 1hr, we went to get food and return. We sat for another hour while watching them finish 3 other cars had arrived before finishing mine. Would not recommend using this service to anyone.

  • Matty Clarke

Great service, been here a few times but today got the works - dropped off the car (even with my toolbox in the boot) and the boys got the job done. The XV hasn’t been this fresh since it was picked up as new. Thanks heaps will see you soon.

  • Bee Bee

New people have taken over from Scooters and I found them really professional, fast and did a great job. They have also done up the waiting room, as before it was so cold and uninviting. Now it’s somewhere where you like to sit and wait.

  • Shivoize

Sunny and the boys run the finest car wash in this galaxy. Simply out of you want your car to turn back the clocks like it’s just coming off the showroom floor then you know where to take it. They turned my fake amg into a real one ;)

  • Rosalie Matthews

We had been in western NSW and I took the car in covered in mud, It left looking like it had just come off the showroom floor. Staff were very helpful and pleasant and did an excellent job. Would strongly recommend this business.

  • K Rind

Great 5 star Car wash service in Sydney. All staff are very friendly and hardworking and they made my car like new. Mr Promise did all his best,all his effort. I am so happy for their genuine service.EXCELLENT *****

  • Peter Darley

These guys are great for a standard wash and vacuum. Not so sure on paying for a wax and polish when I sat and watched while having coffee the whole process. Car wasnt waxed and only highlights of the car polished.

  • Mario Cipollone

Outstanding work - very thorough detailing of my extremely dirty van - they even gave it another going over as I was late collecting it so they redid parts that I was never expecting to come clean.

  • Anish Raj

One of the best car wash experience from this place. Mr Promise went above and beyond to ensure every nook and corner was clean and shiny. Would give 5 star just for his etiquette and work ethics.

  • Jeanette Bastian

  • LJ W

Sloppy work, didn’t even wash boot lid properly. Long wait. They wash the interior door trims with the pressure washer, leaving your car wet inside!! Go elsewhere.

  • Harry Khamis

Try to con you into the most expensive wash. If you don’t want it they’ll do a half job. Numerous other car wash’s close by that are cheaper and do a better job

Pretty average. For a $100 I expect to have the boot and door pockets vacuumed. Nice exterior polish, but the interior was left wanting.

Waiting 30 mins. They are washing cars which arrived after mine. I got sick of it and left. Waste of my time and no money for you.
