Where can I find a safe car wash? SHARE THIS STORY 0 inShare Qn: I enjoy reading the useful car maintenance tips you give readers in your column. I need advice about how to choose a good car wash in Kampala. Since my arrival in Uganda where I work as an expatriate I have had problems such as tools missing, poor cleaning jobs or paint work damaged at a couple of washing bays I have visited. Christian. Ans. Finding the right car wash can sometimes be a challenge. It is similar to finding a good doctor. However, there a few indicators that can guide you when choosing the right car wash. You must observe the traffic in and out of a washing bay as this may be a sign that the service provided is a good one. A good car wash should have customers waiting to be serviced, and if there are never any cars in the lot on a daily basis, there is probably a good reason why. The presence of newer and good looking cars is also an indicator about the quality of service at a car wash. The location of the car wash should be easily and safely accessible with a clean and tidy floor as well as a secure parking lot. A well maintained and equipped car wash is likely to be successful because it provides a good service. The quality of customer care and management style is another factor to consider. A washing bay where you are welcomed, offered a seat and asked what sort of service you need speaks volumes about the level of service. Clean and presentable as well as friendly staff also depict the kind of service you are likely to get. Management should be able to display the different cleaning services and their cost. A care taker should be interested in recording the tools and valuables on your car as well as take note that it is not scratched or damaged. If in doubt about the driving skills of the caretaker, park your car to avoid accidental damage. Take care to secure or declare any valuables in your car before you hand it over.
