Nothing in particular.

How much did you pay for the Scorpio work ?

He charged me Rs.500 for the Swift, but seeing that he'd done a good job, I got him to do the Scorpio too, and paid him another Rs.500 despite some protests. Maybe he'd have liked a couple of hundred extra, but he got 2 cars to do together, so did not prevail about asking more money.

Do they need an electricity point when they come to your place?

Might be a problem for people living in high rise apartments.

Or their equipments work from 12V of their/our vehicle?

Good point - yes, he does need a 220V power outlet to run the wet vacuum cleaner (seen in the pic). This cannot run from a 12V point. But he carries extraaalooong extension wires to plug in somewhere convenient, although it may be a rare issue to find a suitable 220V power outlet at certain places / highrises.

Edit: Without using that vacuum, fabric seats & ceilings remain wet/moist for days after cleaning. With the vacuum being used, they are 90% dry by the time he completes his job. Should not be so much of an issue with leather seats though.

Nice to know about such service.
My question - Does he take care of the A/C vent grills properly, I mean cleaning between the fins (as there deposits a lot grime)??

[harishnayak]

Sir - Does the Rs 500 job include rubbing/polishing of the exteriors + the interiors of a hatch? Bumped into this thread at the right time i guess as my spark desperately needs a roof job.

Yes - he'd cleaned the vents.

He charges separately for rubbing & polishing the exterior paintwork. Rs.500 is for cleaning the interiors only. But then, I suppose you can always bargain!

Thanks for the information. I will try him one of these days at my GK2 residence.

So, has anyone else used Vijay's services? Another review would be appreciated.

Hi SS,

I used the services of this chap last weekend to get the interiors of my alto cleaned.
My alto was so soiled on the inside all thanks to a numerous in car parties over last six months that I used to feel repulsed while driving it!!

This guy did a brilliant job for peanuts (500 bucks). Now I can see the actual colour of the carpet.

He left a few corners unattended but than I was not there personally to supervise him and at this price I am not complaining.

Thanks for the excellent contact.

cheers

Has anyone used his services lately? I need the interiors of my punto to be cleaned thoroughly, before the Delhi summer and sweat sets in.

[SS-Traveller]

Yes, I called him in to both do the interiors and polish both my cars last month. Satisfactory job as usual.
Edit: Got him to clean up the sofas too.
