I've been using the Xpress wash RFID system for 2 years now. Nothing but problems and it's always someone else's fault starting with the installation by the distributer, internet, antenna aiming, employee's entering tags wrong, etc... Some tags work, others don't. I can't think of a single 2...

Below is my dryer setup.

Anyone out there having issues with the roof strips blowing off the newer Ford Taurus? I've had 4 in four months blowing out when exiting the dryer room. My dryers are the McNeil 15hp. What should I do to fix the problem? Thanks -Kevin

Hi all, I am curious if anyone are using these Kiosk's? Thanks -Kevin http://www.egenuity.com/ezkiosk.aspx

Hello all. We opened our first tunnel wash this month and need advice on what winter wear is best for these cold Indiana winters? Thanks! -Kevin

no bother at all! I've been sick the past 4 days..... yes, it will wash a Smart car. I use the Premier brand dryer. I think they are the best bang for the buck and look good too. The following video is the unit washing my Lamborghini. Please keep in mind that this was while we where still...

1. yes, sonar but it also has what is called "scaning bars"? 2. the sensitivity is adjusted as to not pickup the antenna 3. never damaged a brush or car 4. yes, completely unattended 5. if you are interested in the IQ you should call D&S to get better details about the unit. My knowledge is...

1. no, regulated by the scan. BUT, if the Amperage draws too high it will back off I believe. 2. aluminum 3. yes -Kevin

Jimbeaux, Nothing new to report other than it's still cleans better than any inbay I've seen. The material does all the cleaning along w/ HP rocker blast for the rockers and wheels. The pressure is regulated by the scan of the car so every inch of it is touched equally. Which brings up another...

I don't believe so. I recall my distributer saying something about them building a touchless on the IQ platform.

UPDATE: It's now been over 3 months since install of the new IQ. I'm happy to say that we are averaging over 65 trouble free cars per day. We did have a few computer glitches related to the install but the team at D&S made short work of them! No regrets so far. -Kevin

Hey all. I'm looking for opinions on what entry gate you all are using and where is a good place to order them. I've been looking at some liftmaster gates but I want to compare them with others. Thanks -Kevin

This is excellent advice and what I have been doing over the past few weeks. I visited a MacNeil tunnel in Northern Indiana and flew up to the Detroit area and viewed about 6 Peco tunnels. I ultimately decided on Harrell's in Indy. They will be installing MacNeil equipment in a new 110ft...

New signage and RFID installed. Vacuum Islands relocated and overall view of refurb. More pics to come!

Thanks! They are D&S units out of St. Louis, Mo.
