“This review is for the car wash. And the bathroom.It's not the closest car wash to home, but it's one of the better full-service ones around. They've done a good job with my various cars over the years, including trucks that accumulate mud and road grime outside and cute dog hair inside. Sometimes the exterior will have a streak or two remaining, and often times the interior will have dog hair and sand in the crevices. I rely on the detailing guy who comes by when I want perfection.The office / gas station convenience store features one of the cleanest gas station bathrooms you'll find anywhere. There's not fresh roses and an attendant handing out towels, but they keep it nice and there may be a real pot of pouporri in there somewhere.”
“Great customer service. My vehicle needed a little touch-up paint and although the color didn’t quite match, they tried really hard to make it look great. Love the way the ceramic coating makes my Honda Civic look!”
“I wanted to take some time to give deserved recognition to Kevin, Braedon and the entire team at Elite Finish. Company's of this caliber this are hard to find these days.
I had a stellar experience with them on my first car I brought to them last year. I traded in that car for a Gen 2. Rivian recently and brought it over to them at Elite to do some work. They advised me of the terrible chemical stains all over the car upon delivery so we decided to do a full paint correction & ceramic coat to get the car looking new. Despite the terrible stains, the car looked flawless when I picked it up from Elite.
A few weeks later, the chemical stains re-appeared out of nowhere on part of the car. I had no idea where to start to address the problem but decided to at least show Kevin & Elite before bringing it in to Rivian to (try) and rip them a new one on the condition of the car.
Without hesitation Kevin said he wanted to address it for me so I didn't have to attempt through Rivian. He put a full team of techs on the car in order to expedite the process and get the car back to me the same day.
It goes without saying that the customer service at Elite is unparalleled, as is the top tier work they provide.
I'm grateful to the team and will never bring a car anywhere else but here.
Thanks Elite, you guys rock.”

“Outstanding location to get your windows tinted or your car detailed! Did an amazing job on both for my 2022 Honda Accord! Went to the warehouse location vs mobile visit. My friends were impressed with the detailing and said it looked better than brand new! Thanks again! Choose Mach 1 for all your detailing or window tinting needs!”
“Smith Bros gives best attention to customer service from confirming appt to reminders to personnel. Ethan did remarkable work on my car. Highly recommend the ceramic wax.”
“This place was and is amazing- as the other reviews state. Car looked like it was detailed and just picked up new from dealership! Also great value for the charge- it looked like I spent three times what I actually did. HIGHLY recommend.”
“Nice and courteous business, explained the process and showed samples. Work does on a timely manner and there was a nice seating area to wait Henry helped me and has a positive and professional attitude. I am recommending other to use the same place”

“Here's the deal. Fill up at the shell and get your car wash from that. 10 cents off per gallon, and that basically pays for most of the car wash. Always friendly staff and plenty of parking spots to vacuum. Since they opened a ton of new vacuum stalls (even some in the shade to the west!) it's even better.”
“I had a good experience with Michael. He is very knowledgeable and does a great job aligning expectations. Before I brought my car for smoke odor removal, he walked me through the whole process and answered all my questions. The service itself was also great. My car is now very clean and the smell has greatly improved. I'm pleased with the service I received and I'm happy to recommend him to family and friends.”
“Not only does this place do an amazing job, there is a bomb burrito shop right next door that has amazing elote cups.
They always do a great job here with the detailing services and are reasonable priced. They are my go-to in this area.”
“Great Service!!! Super easy to schedule a time to clean and detail our car. There service is top of the line it exceed my expectations. Will definitely use them again.”
“After reading the R&A Auto detailing reviews I knew I found the right company to detail my work truck. I personally own a cleaning business so I know clean!Roberto and his crew were on time, polite, extremely extremely detailed with my work truck. Pricing was more than fair and I know who to call for my other vehicles! Thanks guys!”

“I recently visited this car wash, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the service! The staff was friendly, efficient, and paid great attention to detail. My car came out looking brand new—spotless, shiny, and with no watermarks left behind. The wash was thorough, and they even took care of the tough spots that other places tend to miss. Great value for the price, and I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended for anyone who wants their car looking its best! BEST EMPLOYEE IS CHRISTAN ALWAYS GOT A BIG SMILE”
“Incredible service! I was recommended this shop by a buddy of mine and a friend of Chris' for detailing, PPF and ceramic coating. Prior to even acquiring my car, I had been in talks with Chris regarding a couple projects I had coming up. Once the time came, I brought in my BMW X3 M to get full frontal PPF and Opti-Coat Pro Plus ceramic coating for the rest of the vehicle. Chris is very knowledgeable and displays his passion for his work and it really shows in the final product. I couldn't be happier with the result and would recommend him to anyone looking for quality paint protection and ceramic coating. I will be returning for maintenance of this vehicle and future vehicles!”
“Awesome wash and detail. Left the car picture-perfect when they finished. Was just looking for their number, and will be giving them a call once more to try to get an appointment for an overdue detailing!”

“I used Chuck to detail a pickup truck and he did an amazing job! I was so happy with the quality of work that he did two other cars for me. I also used him to do the ceramic coating on all my 3 vehicles. It looks so good! Super happy with the service and professionalism. Thank you Chuck!Services: Auto detailing”

“I had a fantastic experience at this place! I opted for a mini detail, and it turned out to be the best car wash I've had since I moved to the area.A big thank you to the team; you guys are awesome!Despite passing several other car washes along the way from Escondido to Encinitas, I choose to bring my cars here for a reason. This car wash is undoubtedly the most pleasant one I've ever visited! The convenience of being able to enjoy a sandwich, yogurt, or a snack from the convenience store while sitting on the covered patio is just wonderful. It's like they are the car fairy godmothers, performing magic on your vehicle.Their pricing is competitive, and they are transparent about it, offering tremendous value for the outstanding service they provide. I highly recommend them!”
“I’ve been using this self-serve car wash for several years, even though I live in Oceanside, because i felt it was the best one for the money. I haven’t been there for several months because I’ve been out of town. But I went there yesterday, and WOW! They must have put in new machinery because the hose felt like it was attached to a fire hydrant. EVERYTHING just flew off the paint.
I was happy enough before, and, considering the cost, felt that I got my money’s worth whenever I stopped by there. Now it’s a bargain

“This place is top notch. Great service and able to work with your schedule. I don't remember my car ever being so shiny. 100% would recommend.Services: Full body wash”
“I had a "detailing emergency" that required quick action when a child got sick in the back seat of my car. I called Sean in kind of a panic after it happened. He was able to fit me in the next morning, working around my crazy work meeting schedule, and get my car cleaned up in time to pick my kiddo up from school. It looks and smells like a new car. I appreciate the quick and detailed work he did!”
“This is a good place and deserving of five stars. But the heavy and aggressive sales pitch at the terminal at every visit to buy a monthly plan is a drag...even a deterrent. The conversation should end at "no thanks."”

“They just installed a brand new car wash. It is so much better than the old equipment. It is touch free only!! The cheap wash did a great job of getting my SUV. Also you can wash a dully truck in there, so wide no tracks on the floor. Also you get a discount for gas when you wash you car!!!! Yay also everybody is so nice.”
“Phil the owner responded to my request to have my Toyota Sienna detailed. The price was very reasonable and the value was outstanding. Just for reference, I have three kids under the age of 13. All of them eat and drink in the car. I had more spilled soda and milk all over the carpets and seats. His team did a spectacular job on the interior detail. When my kids got in this morning they thought it looked like a new car. Let's hope I can keep them from eating in and out in the back seat. LOLThanks Phil and team!”
“Cody went over and above. I have a puppy who stained the back of my suv, which went between the seats and was very hard to clean. Most detailers would not have gone to the time and trouble of actually taking things apart to get all of it, but Cody did. My SUV has never been soclean!! clean!!”
“The owner of this company has incredible grit. I had some scuffs on my car and he was able to go buff them out. My car hasn’t looked this good since I got it from the dealership. Smells brand new also. I 100% recommend it to everyone that wants to keep there cars squeaky clean !Services: Auto detailing”
“2 of the bays remain flooded after usage; this severely limits the type of footwear you should wear when going to this self car wash. Since there is a $5 mininum charge, you should use the car wash for at least 5 minutes to get your money's worth. I can only speak for the high pressure soap & rinse options; both worked well. Additionally, all of the vacuums only take cash /:”

“I was getting off work late tonight and I needed to fuel up. Luckily, this 76 was fairly close to I decided to go here. The business is open 24/7 and so are the restrooms. The place is very clean and has a wide selection of snacks. As far as drinks go, they mostly only have Gatorade and energy drinks, and some vitamin waters, and they're fairly expensive compared to other gas stations. The Gatorade's were 2 for $5.50. The cashier was very sweet, she gave me the key to the restroom no problem and I'm impressed to say the restroom was very clean. I probably wouldn't fuel up here regularly though considering that gas is $4.99 and up, considering if you get the cheapest option, but if you're looking for a clean, professional gas station with restrooms open at all hours, this is where to go! They also have a f'freal milkshake machine. I really do love these milkshakes and it's hard to find a gas station with one of these machines that work. They are just regular milkshakes that you can pick your flavor and blend to your liking. The chocolate is my favorite.”
“Encinitas born and raised; I’ve been coming to this carwash since I was a kid when they used to be Olsons Car wash. Teresa & all the staff are all fantastic people and always leave my vehicles looking dialed! Great spot to get your rig washed, clean expedient, and professional!”

“Pretty solid value relative to how clean your car gets. Can’t beat the ability to fill up on dollar fish tacos while you get your car washed, too.A bit more costly nowadays, but what isn’t? Bring a buck or two for the guys who finish the interior when you grab your keys. Keep your receipt until you have your car back.”
