when I called on reducer, would not give me any info rpm sizing just new one for $650!! Grainger $475. found surplus for $200 + 45 shipping. mine said 69 RPM new ones is 75RPM. was not helpful unless I was interested in overpaying from them.

Do you still have part # for gearbox 7323101360 text or email 555carwash@gmail.com

I've been beat by them 2 times never again! Buying sight unseen big risk! They take no responsibility for anyone selling BS equipment your on your own! I figured buying from one car wash guy to another was fairly safe! Bought a Uni-Mac "IN GOOD WORKING ORDER" $2,500 + cost $500 to ship when I...

are vacuums still avail? pm me 555carwash@gmail.com

I was looking at poodle brushes and came across a Mark VII wheel and sill brush, any experiences with this unit? The major point I like is the wheel instead of the glide bar used like old tire brushes had. these have an issue sometimes with some of the metal tire valves, with sensors (just got...

Be creative! Exterior flex serve is not the do all end all, being a full service operator for 20 years, we just added flex to our full service, did not add much to our car counts but added $4-$5.00 per car to our average. We just offered a less expensive exterior wash, it was $8.50, FS was...

I also use the lambswool on last miter, more for show after triple foam. but issues when new leaves felt clogging filter in reclaim, until broken in.

Been doing this for 20 years, foam on all drums, able to spin faster and gentler on cars antennas mirrors etc, especially on wraps. But needs more water, cloth on all miters foam on miters does nothing unless you have a top brush where foam is a must. Cloth is easier to clean and does wear...

Have a very busy high profile car wash w/gas c-store and permits for 4 bay lube in NJ, location in need of funds to build 4 bay lube center, currently stuck with a bad fuel supply agreement looking for funds to take out existing supplier to get facility up to where it should be. My gas volume is...

Excellent location but no money? 5 years ago I was approved to add 3000 sq ft C-Store and a 4000 sq ft lube 2x4 configuration, added to my existing 75,000 Cars/Yr car wash and at the time 150,000 G/M unbranded gas station. I was able to secure funds to build the C-store (now open) but unable to...

free with a little leg work GPS company's want as much info as they can squeeze in, I am sure the same for I-Phone and other PDA's, why pay for something when its free. I posted a sign at my wash- IF WE ARE NOT POSTED ON YOUR GPS or PDA GET A FREE WASH! Since I went to those 3 sites not one...

I am not sure how other PDA's get their info.

Do not know if this was ever brought up? When I first was checking the surrounding compitition of the area for car wash I was buying a few months ago, I punched in CAR WASH in my little GPS, and seen only 1/2 of the washes listed in YP search. I just got my wife a TOM TOM and seen my existing...
