    Guy says 1000psi stripped his paint

    I had a customer about a year ago complain about paint coming off in the wash passenger side. The omni high pressure sprayers and wheel blasters do run the length of the vehicle but it came down to the cheap $300 paint job that the customer had recently completed. She only had the passenger...

    So a customer went through the wash yesterday and came out with a crack on her windshield. Nothing but soft cloth and high pressure water touches the glass. Nothing spinning or hard component. We do have a sign posted that we are not responsible for windshields with existing crack or any...

    Mat Cleaner

    I have two Rhino Mat Cleaners - one wet/dry and another just dry. Only downside is that so many customers now use the customized mats and those do not work in the Rhino machines. We offer as a freebie so its very attracting to customers.

    I would love if someone would clean out our vacuums. As long as they put everything back together and cleanup the mess.

    backup withholding - TSYS

    So I discovered in January that my credit card merchant was withholding 24% of my transactions for the IRS due to a mismatch that I was not made aware of until I called. The withholding started January 13th and have amassed over $19k in funds that I am fighting to get back. Has anyone ever had...

    light show

    $8200 seems a little high for such space. I have 8 different lights bars in my tunnel, some used and a few new and probably only have around 5k invested. Check out some consignment pages for light bars.

    New PPP

    25% reduction. I'm out! We had a 12% increase. We did shutdown our vacuums for 45 days but the wash never closed. Praying for all the washes that have been hit hard with the pandemic. We are having to do some creative marketing to bring in extra customers but I think it will pay off in the...

    Best Chemistry For The Price

    We are a Blue Coral / Zep / Armor All shop. Love the products but the key is to not skimp on the chemicals. Some folks try to water down too much and that will be reflected in the product you put out. I have a terrific sales group and they are always helping with tweaking the formulas and...

    Bought a used wash.

    Yes the shed needs to go. Other than that, Im sure this place will look great after the reno. Its tough work but do as much as you can yourself and the reno price will be minimal besides that touchless bay. Best of luck!
