Like they do at the airport or Rodeo. Dont want to drop off shoes and come back. Just want to walk in, get shoes shined, pay and leave. I tried the shoe repair place at Dairy Ashford and Memorial, they dont do that.

I used to get my car washed right across the street on Memorial from Westchester/Nottingham. There was a guy in the car wash lobby who would shine shoes and did a damn fine job as well. I have been overseas for 3 years now and not sure if the place or guy is still there.

I think all the Mister Car Wash's have one. At least the bigger ones. I know Memorial and Gessner along with Westheimer just outside the Belt have one.

The one by Hungrys? I don't think he's there anymore. Or at least there's never been anyone there when I've gotten my car washed there.

I just do it myself. It's easy and only take a few minutes.

1+ for West Memorial Barbershop. Perry is the name of the guy.

Closed on Mondays, but give them a call to verify that Perry is there. I usually just drop mine off.

Nah, it aint the same. Need a pro to soap , buff, polish 1, buff, polish 2, buff. Had a guy in my old office 10 yrs ago that did it right, no way have i ever matched that at home.
