    Road Closure

    I own a 4 bay SS car wash in Petersburg VA that is about 1/10 of a mile from a small bridge that crosses a river. VDOT just put up a sign saying the bridge/road in front of my Wash will be closed for the next 7 months! Has anyone else had any experience with this or something similar? There...

    Also, have you ever attempted to reuse the wires and just resolder them to the new button?

    CryptoPay Button Issue

    Thank you for the information. CryptoPay said they will not repair any swiper with a serial number less than 16,000. Did you order the buttons through Digikey? Also, are the red lighted buttons the exact same just a different color?

    Pepsi/Coke Vending Machines

    Anybody have any experience letting an outside vending company put drink machines on their lot? We don't want to stock or deal with the machines but just charge rent or a percentage of sales? Thanks.

    Cryptopay “end charge button” bypass

    We have similar issues with about 60-70 count up swipers in use both bays and vacs. The "STOP" sticker from the old rotary switch labels fits nicely on the swiper with a little but if cutting. We think it has helped with the problem.

    License Plate Information

    So in regards to vandalism, the police told us that to prosecute it criminally there must be intent. Which to them is the difference between someone spraying out wet paint out of their truck bed and somebody using a can of spray paint to graffiti on your walls. The guy who sprayed out the paint...

    License Plate Information

    Wow. Yes that is a similar response to what we get. One locality where we have three locations, Henrico County, did a case study on this issue. They basically told us that if we valued our property, we need to hire a full-time attendant and or open and close the car wash daily.

    License Plate Information

    We are having a hard time getting registrant information from the police with a license plate. Had a guy yesterday spray out a 5 gallon bucket of wet paint and all of his painting supplies. We got a license plate and video of the guy clear as day, but the police won't give us his information...

    Foam brush heads

    We have been buying the 4 and 1/2 inch Erie Hogs hair heads for about 20 years and lately have noticed they have not held up nearly as well. The bristles are starting to get twisted and knotted close to the bumper. I'm literally having to take a wide comb and brush out the knots or else they...
