MZurf Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 The car needs some TLC/waxing and I would like to ask the esteemed TV members about their experiences with different car care providers in Pattaya. Emphasis is on quality, but price is also of interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banglay Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I've just had my car done I took it to a car spray shop .....and they stripped off the old wax off and re-cut the paint work to get rid of all the water marks and touched up a few stone chips and then re-polished and re-waxed ..it was a full 2 day process for 2 men. My pick up now looks brand new again......... ..well worth the ฿2800 charge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n210mp Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) The garage at BangSare where they also repair and do good bodywork is on the left hand side of Suk just before the lights heading towards Sattahip From experience of this small firm doing jobs on my cars over a 5 year period they are very good and can be bartered with regards price. Personally I wax and clean my own pickup, a good nano polish is essential, not sure what wax they use in the car washes but you can guarrannttee it will be a cheap one, doing it yourwself is good for you by the way (and cheaper) Edited November 19, 2015 by n210mp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balo Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 I need to wax my car but I only found expensive places so far . There used to be a place in Thepprasit that wash and waxed for 500 baht but they moved last year. Anything under 1000 in Pattaya / Jomtien ?

balo Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 OK just by coincidence I found this place today , it¨s located on Thappraya rd, near the bridge. . 500 baht for wash & wax, and they did a great job with my car. Maybe not the best service that money can buy but my car looks almost like new so I'm happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
