I really enjoyed visiting Autorific. I opted for the laser car wash option and selected 'the works' and it was an extremely pleasant experience. The laser wash technology as well as the rainx was of assistance in ensuring that my car was cleaned thoroughly with a wax finish, which I appreciate. I plan to go back!

This is the only place in Durham I take my car for do-it-yourself cleaning. They have plenty of spray wash bays and vacuums, plus one automatic touch free and one automatic soft touch wash bay. They have plenty of extra space to pull your car over to and complete your detail cleaning and it is well maintained and we'll lit. They have several change machines and there is an attendant if you need help.
