My experience there was AWESOME.
SO my car started to leak oil. Being the frugal person I am, I decided to drive around and just add oil as needed. Well it turns out all that oil is going somewhere, and its not all dripping on the ground. My whole chassis all the way back had oil spattered on it. The tech recommended a bumper to bumper and I was inclined to agree.
My lovely Toyota truck has 300k miles on it, and 300k worth of dirt and grime. So I definitely was expecting it to be pretty expensive to get this all off. The total was $275 for everything, plus you get a free car wash if you mention it! It's really a good price if you think about how much gunk is coming off and the fact that they have to clean and dispose of or recycle all of it. Environmental disposal is not cheap, and I'm glad to know that all my gunk is not ending up in the bay.
My experience there was AWESOME. The guys there are very nice, respectful, helpful, and interesting to talk to. It took approx 30 or 40 min to complete the job and I hardly noticed because I was enjoying their company. Afterword I stayed to finish up conversation until I had to leave.
I like to support family owned businesses and this is one of them. It has been in their family for 48 years and has been a business in San Jose for almost 90. I cannot recommend this place enough, I left there feeling very satisfied even after giving them money, which is the proper way to conduct a business. I will certainly be bringing any cars or car parts needing cleaning to them.
