Having heard positive reviews about 3M Car Care, I decided to visit their Vashi location in Navi Mumbai. They have two outlets in the area, one near Seawoods and the other near the Palm Beach Galleria Mall. I scheduled an appointment on a Saturday at the following address:
3M Car Care, Gala #7, Satra Plaza, Next to Palm Beach Galleria Mall, Sector-19D, Vashi, Navi Mumbai-400703
The contact persons are Mr. Bhavesh and Mr. Meeth Dharod, and their phone number is 022-27833355.
I chose the 2-year anti-corrosion treatment and the interior Germkleen service. The total cost was Rs. 3236, including taxes.
My overall experience was extremely satisfying. The entire process was handled professionally, and my car was treated with care, even when being moved within the workshop. The doors were closed gently, a refreshing change from the careless slamming common at local garages. The owners personally supervised the work, ensuring that nothing was overlooked. Their customer-oriented approach was commendable. During the initial consultation, they showed videos and photos of the various services, providing a clear understanding of what each entailed. I highly recommend this 3M Car Care outlet.
The photos below, taken with my phone, document my experience.
