    Hey, so now that I got my car fully done and fixed, I am planning to clean it. First I want to find a petrol station that has those hoses/hovers. Clean insides of car, then buy 8 euro car wash and go through it.
    Any suggestions of such car wash? And what's the price of hoover is usually? How much per how long?

    Forgot to add:
    Need it to be open and available at 8 PM.

    Texaco at the merrion gates if you're in south Dublin

    Tbh you'd be much better off finding a friend or relation with a driveway where you can park and Hoover at your leisure. It'll take the best part of an hour to give the interior a good clean, and you need to use a soft brush attachment to do the dashboard etc.

    I ended up paying 1.50 Euro for 5 minutes of hoover at topaz.

    Doing it at home is much better, you get all the crud out, those petrol station hoovers are crap.

    Esso is best, they have the automated tyre pressure fillers if you have to use a filling station.

    Nothing nicer than getting into a clean and freshly groomed car. Do you have leather seats?

    No, just typical fabric. Well the hoover in topaz seemed quite powerful, unfortunately it suck in 10 cents in change :(
    It's clean now, but unfortunately I had to use Esso car was which is pretty crap compared to Topaz for same price.
    In Topaz a guy comes out with pressure washer and washes your car, then you go through the washer itself where car gets rubbed well.

    Today after Esso car wash, my alloys remained with dirt as there was no pressure washing.

    Esso for hoover/tyre pressure machines.

    If you want your car clean like wheels etc, do it yourself, have never used an Esso carwash.

    I used Topaz car wash once on my previous car Corsa. For 8 euro it was just amazing. It was so clean from outside, all rims cleared out from dirt because the guy with pressure wassher cleans all sides of car. All for just 8 euro.

    But topaz was closed today so I ended up using Esso car wash.

    If you don't want to wash it yourself then there is a place in the Ward near Ashbourne that is probably one of the best car washes in North Dublin

    8 euro about ten minutes and your car is spotless.
