    More customer insanity

    Thank goodness for your cameras. My cameras saved me this weekend. Had a guy swear he put $8 in a self serve bay meter. I checked the camera and he wasnt even the driver/ customer. The meter was jammed but the driver didnt lose any money. I invited he passenger in to view the footage but...

    Sand/Media blasting brick walls

    Im no scientist but ive been cleaning carwash walls for over 20 years. In my experience, the crap on the wall at every wash is unique to the dirt in the area and the wash chemicals used. Almost no 2 carwashes require the same method to clean. similar yes, the same, not often. Bricks are...

    Purchase 4 Bay 3 self-serve 1 Touch free Car Wash in Southeastern US

    To do it "right", whatever that means, that is gonna be a 300k rehab all day long. Need to buy for waaay less. Income is too low. Gonna have to change alot more than the price to get the income up.

    WashWorld New Razor Hyper Force

    Thanks for the report. If its a modified Edge, Im thinking it has the hyperflex as standard equipment. It is my understanding that you can apply 2 products at the same time with that feature. The video appears to show that as well. I didnt add that to mine because i can only see where it...

    WashWorld New Razor Hyper Force

    I was told today that they can ship the end of June or whenever they get UL approval, whichever comes first.. However, the only one running is at the factory. That does make me a little nervous. I looked at flights today but my distributor cant go with me for a couple weeks. Might go it...

    WashWorld New Razor Hyper Force

    regarding the water usage, the advertisement says it'll do 36 gmp at 1500 psi. I only run about 11-1200, so maybe, just maybe, i can dial it back a bit and save water. probly wishful thinkin but it sounds good..........

    WashWorld New Razor Hyper Force

    My distributor turned me on to it Friday. I just ordered 2 machines a couple weeks ago and may do a change order and get these instead. Right now im waiting on more info. I like the spray arch. Im hoping there is some angle on the middle nozzles that will get more soap on the back window of...

    Is this normal?

    Here's an idea. It might sound extreme to some folks but realize Im just looking at pictures on the internet. I really want to try to help. I doubt the DOT will let you have 2 driveways, BUT , they might let you move the driveway. If you close off the driveway you have and put the new...

    Pretty tough question to answer

    Id load from the back one way or another. From the posted pics, I think at this site the customer will feel better facing the road during the wash process and on the way out. And the traffic on the road will see the clean car exiting and on their way

    Is this normal?

    It could be that people just dont know yet and better marketing is needed. Im not sure what that would be tho. I dont want to be a debbie downer, but it is possible that you put it in the wrong bay. IMO it needs to be as much or more of an impulse purchase than a destination purchase...

    Free Vacs VS. Free vacs with membership

    I give a free vac token for top automatic wash. The customers love that they get them but the redemption is small. Alot leave and dont come back. I do walk around while i am on site and give one to anybody in the self serve bay and i will give them to vac customers AFTER they have paid for a...

    Congratulations Earl. With all those years you have forgotten more than most know. Thank you for your info and participation on the forum. I hope this isnt bad manners but can I ask what did you do with the money and how did you replace the income ? Im looking for ideas. shoot me a pm...
