Acme Car Wash

I have to commend this place because as I was waiting w/​the kids outside by the tree, the guy comes up to me & hands me $ 100 ($ 20 = x5) he found somewhere in the car. I would’ve never known if he didn’t return it but he did. Not everyone has integrity like that. Although, when I told the manager that the guys working on my car is very honest & I am thankful, the manager didn’t seem to care at all. Which is sad because not everyone will return $ to you nowadays. This is why I give 5 stars.
As for cleaning, I would give it about a 3 – 4 stars. They did great but there was some streaks & the door handle had some dirt that wasn’t there before. (Probably from the rag used). But overall all I think it’s great for the price you pay. I paid $ 30.00 for a full detail inside & out (for a van) so I’m not expecting a $ 200 job either. Oh & they cleaned the kids’ car seats also. (There’s 2 in the van). I would definitely come back.

I’m not upset at the employees I’m upset that they allowed a maintenance crew to use the blower where cars are being washed obviously all the dust that’s being blowed will end up on peoples cars.

This place was very disorganized and if you’re not vigilant they will miss areas on your vehicle so, watch it through the after washing process. You would think you wouldn’t have to but these guys may only be making minimum wage. There’s another car wash further up the road I think it’s call foam wash which is much more organized and better service. I had to specifically ask them to redo certain parts of the car where dirt remained. I asked the guy who was directing the workforce about spots missed and his respond; you’ve already paid for it. Rather than assuring me it would be addressed. That left me with more doubt about their service. Nonetheless I did leave s tip. I doubt I’ll bring my car back here.

Man! I did went to car wash few time but still not finish clean in sided and outside. Not good! 2 star or less! Sigh

I Unilocal when service & products are either excellent or poor. This one poor due to continued price increases. Youch!
Truck drivers be advised! Brought my 2002 F350 in for a wash & wax. A year or so ago this was $ 29.95. Now posted as $ 39.95. The attendant quoted me $ 45 for being oversize. A standard size pickup truck, and pretty clean to start. It’s a 50% increase. I declined. We backed up the cars behind and I left.
It’s the tipping point where I am doing my own washing once again and saving $ 45 (50 with tip?).
While the attendant was polite the «oversize» fee seems to be exercised at his discretion. I have never been charged «oversize» before. Washing & waxing quality has in the past been so-​so, just average. Some of their crew work like dogs like the guy alone who dry at the exit of the washer, others casually wax the same spot over & over when customers are watching.
ACME…no more business from me.

This is gross, I’m not sure what «detail» means to this place but this definitely isn’t detailed ! I honestly could’ve done such a better job, trash was left in my car it was still sticky in parts the buttons were still dirty everywhere and I just got some money so decided to do something good for my car since it was getting so gross. But there is just so much wrong with it ! For what I paid for plus tip! I am so aggravated by it. Trust me I’ll never be going back to this place again especially if that’s what they mean detail car cleaning is

These guys did the most amazing job with a full detail!!! I couldn’t have spent my money any better anywhere else. The staff members were courteous and professional even under intense pressure as they had a line of at least 20 cars. Def a hard working group of individuals! My car looks brand new even after having have dragged profusely by two young children. They shampooed the seats and carpet + cleaned and dressed the entire vehicle for a very fair price. Get your car in early to avoid traffic and shorten wait time. I am definitely recommending Acme to all my friends and family as well as using their services regularly from this point forward.

Don’t go here, you’re better off going to a quarter wash and doing it yourself… I spent 65 bucks to help someone clean my truck.
They tried to clean my duelly, and by that I mean sprayed it with a hose, the outside was «completed» poorly, the inside was «completed» poorly, they left dirt and crap in the truck bed, I had to get a rag and start cleaning it myself. The manager wouldn’t even talk to me, and I have better things to do then get angry. My health and blood pressure is worth more than defending the extra 25 bucks I spent here.
I’m just never going back here again.

This car wash is the bomb! I came here because I left some watermelon in my car and it spilled in the back seat and stunk up my car really BAD! So, I brought my car in so they can just clean that area and they did a great job. my car no longer smells oh yeah and they’re car wash service was great too they left my car nice and clean. happy with the results.

they washed both cars, inside and out, in less than an hour.
the fine folks working there seemed happy, or at least not dour.
i advised the manager that a fragrant car is something i/​we seek.
the great scent that they provided lasted more than a week.
although the price for the performance is kind of high,
and the waiting area is not posh
wow! we are fans of acme car wash…
my excellent rock star wife is happy.
when my wife is happy, my life is happy.

I’ve been going to Acme car wash on Abbott for years every time I go the employees are friendly and the car wash is excellent i’ve been to a lot of carwashes in the Monterey County area and acne is By far the best one car always comes out clean no streaks on windows which is a big deal to me I always get the works car wash and their prices are very competitive thanks to the guys at Acme

I was happy with the car wash and detailing. I just bought a new car and wanted it to get cleaned up. This place had the better reviews and I thought I’d give them a try. Everything was cleaned the way I like it I had no complaints at all. It took about 30 minutes to clean the car so the wait was not all bad. The price was reasonable I’ve payed double the amount at classic car wash.

Left my car here at 8 this morning to have the seats shampooed, told them I’ll be back at noon. Called at 1145 and they said it was done. Walked over at noon and no one knew where my key was, what was done to it or if it was ready. I could see it sitting across the lot and it looked beautiful, all shiny. As soon as I sat down I realized the seats were still wet and not so we’re my pants and my shirt. They also failed my is the inside really clean test, the seat belt and fastener are still filthy from where my after horse back riding hands have touched them. I’d consider going back just based on location but bring something to sit on.

Made an appointment for a full detailing, The one that cost 220 $. I made the app three days prior to taking my car in so they could staff accordingly as detailing takes time and energy.
Car was ready after 5 hours, I hopped in and drove off assuming it was perfect. On my way home I noticed coffee, crumbs, stains, smears and armor all all over. Took it straight back to demand a refund or have them try to remedy the issue… They offered to clean and touch up problem areas but after having the car for 5 hours I was already at a time crunch. I myself was helping them clean the dirty grill, rims, dead bugs, and spots on the glass. The car was still filthy and not even waxed, or clay barred as it was supposed to be. It was frustrating. I took it home to touch up other spots and further clean missed dirt and and clean the vents.
The owner/​manager did give me two coupons for future washes/​waxes worth 100 $ He also offered to redo the entire detailing which was very thoughtful but I needed it done that day, hence why I made the appointment. Thanks for the effort
120 $ for basically a basic wash and mediocre vacuum job…
The staff there was very helpful in cleaning, they gave it a once over with a rag, but this is a full detailing. Toothpick and q-​tip status. I even had one employee tell me they forgot about it because it got busy… I’ll use the coupons in the future for my other car. But I I still got burned badly… And my time monopolized… Watch out.

after splash down the street repeatedly continued to give me awful service i decided to stop giving them my business and come to Acme Car Wash. this place is awesome!! all the greeters have an awesome attitude. i always get a smile, small conversion and great service. the employees always leave my truck smelling good and lookin good inside and out. haven’t had an issue with them but I’m sure they will try their best to correct any problem that may occur. in my opinion the prices are pretty reasonable. they offer a variety of full service washes along with exterior only washes which works out for me when n i don’t feel like getting off lol. Ive noticed they offer detail services as well but i haven’t tried these services even though the interior of my truck needs it. they have a waiting area in case you don’t want to wait outside for your vehicle.
thanks Gigi and the rest of the guys for always looking after me. :)

One of the best on the Monterey Peninsula. I’ve been coming for years, with both my BMW and my pick-​up truck — they always do an excellent job. The self-​serve vacuums are powerful and really get the job done quickly. They are also known as one of the good places to get your car detailed.

Love coming to Acme car wash. The service here is great! Gigi, Alex and Miguel give great service. Full service car wash is quick and well done. I come here to get all my car washes and they fill up my tank for me.

I stopped in to have my truck washed from all the rain. I really did t have time to do it myself. I paid 23 dollars for a full service inside and out. I received a terrible job. The mirrors were not completely wiped clean still had dirt at least ¼ inch down from corners. Bumpers were dirty not even wiped. Rims were completely filthy. Dirt on the little painted lip under wheel wells. Some of the contours of the body still had dirt. I hate to think I paid for wax over the dirt on my truck. Inside I still had coffee stains near coffee cup holder. Poorly wiped down. The place wasn’t even busy. I should of demanded my money back but was in a hurry. Terrible service avoid this place at all cost. No quality. Very disappointed Bill!

Stopped in here to use the industrial sized vacuums on my nasty car. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The vacuums worked and got the job done… I don’t know what else you want from a car cleaning co.

Full service. Love to come here and have someone else pump my gas.
My mom used to always come here for car washes when I was a kid so this oddly has a sentimental connection for me.
The vacuums are self-​seve when you get an outdoor only wash (which is what I usually do). They were recently upgraded and are super strong in terms of suction.
I also appreciate this place because they donated some car washes to my child’s school with a formal request including the tax ID number for our parent group. Always like to support businesses who support the community.
