Carbon Valley Car Wash - Frederick, Colorado

The automatic wash is a total scam. I spent $15 and this is what my car looks like.

DIY side is OK, but the Automated wash isn't very good.
Tried the Automated wash twice, as it's local and easy to get to. Wasn't impressed either time. Leaves lots of dirt/dust and bugs. The most obvious sign of is the bed-cover in the below picture. The brushes grazed the sides, but left the center untouched. It's nothing more than a light layer of dirt that came right off with a swipe of my own finger. The under-body wash is also rather weak. It's worth driving to another wash to get something more aggressive. Erie has a touch-less wash that took care of the stuff this one missed, which seems odd given this is not touch-less. For this location, you're best bet is to simply use the DIY side.

I used this place today to wash my car after the snow day before yesterday and I spent the same amount of money that I do at riptide in fire stone but my car did not come out clean at all compared to the way it does it riptide I guess it’s due to the fact that riptide actually has hot water… And maybe better soap I don’t know, but I won’t come here again!
I should’ve stayed with Riptide!!!!!

Great little carwash. Used both the DIY and the drive thru. Both are good- though I can never get the stubborn bugs off my car. I have no idea how to use the "special washes" like the big remover, which i would really like to try. Bug remover or any of the other choices are not on the dial. Been using the power version of soap and water but it just isn't strong enough for the bugs.

Been going here for the self-service bays for years, and it's always been a pretty good value. You can use credit cards, quarters or $1 coins in the wash bay and there's two bill changers if you need change. There's all the major features like wheel/tire cleaner, foam soap, etc but they advertise a mag remover that doesn't seem to be an option on the control panel. So I don't know what's up with that. Expect a wait because it's usually busy. All in all, I'd recommend.

Absolutely loved this place. Other car washes I've been to, were no where near as good as this place. Great pressure wash, and awesome wash, I can actually smell the soap when washing my truck in the 'do it yourself' bays.
John, was a gentleman. Asked if everything was working alright. My second time there (I take my truck mudding a LOT) I was almost done cleaning the interior of my truck when John came over and gave me a complementary big blue drying rag for my truck, and helped me get two vanilla scents for my truck as well.

Will continue to come here for a long time. Love, love, love this place.

$9 car wash says high pressure pre-wash included-it does not do the high pressure pre-wash. A little bit of soap is sprayed on your vehicle, then straight to the brushes grinding the dust that is on your vehicle into your paint. Asked the owner why the pre-wash was not working, so the dust gets rinsed off before the brushes go over my vehicle, he didnt even care to hear what i had to say, and said it goes straight to soap with no high pressure rinse. Sign says for $9 wash you get a high pressure pre-rinse!!!!!! Either add the pre-rinse or adjust your sign!!!! Horrible customer service from the owner. Will not be back!!!! Better car washes in Firestone!!!!!

I have been coming to this car wash since it was first built and recently it has been maintained the best in a long time. I go there a lot and the gentleman John I met is very personable and helpful. Glad to have this spot close to home!
