Car Beauty

If you know Hamilton Road near the Kashmere Gate, you know how hectic it gets around here. Our shop, Car Beauty, is at 1/2724, right near the police station. Being so close to the station means there’s always people and cars moving around. We’ve been washing and cleaning cars in this spot for a long time. It’s dusty work because of all the traffic outside, so we’re constantly keeping things moving. We aren't some high-end luxury lounge; it’s a place where we get our hands dirty making sure vehicles look decent when they leave. Sometimes the water pressure is a bit low or the weather is too hot, but we just keep at it. Most of the guys here have been working with cars for years and they don’t need much instruction anymore. We see all kinds of cars coming through, some are old and some are newer. We just try to get the grime off and clear out the interiors. It’s a small space, so things can get a bit tight when we have a few cars lined up. Usually, we're just chatting while we work or listening to the noise from the street. It’s a straightforward business and we don’t try to make it sound like anything else. Just a bunch of us working on cars in a busy part of the city near the gate. It is what it is and we enjoy the daily routine of it.
