    Mosmatic Comfort Hose

    They are nice and lite weight which many customers appreciate. They do not last as long as the Continental hoses as my customers can be hard on them I guess. They pinch and break more easily than I expected so we have moved away from them.

    Would you rather own a express/full service or a 4+2?

    Do not assume that an Express will make 2x the profit of a IBA/SS. Too many variables such as location, owner/operator, and the local demographics to be able to say which will yield the better profit. Managing people can be a headache unless you have very solid & reliable people (which is very...

    Midwest Slow Right Now?

    It has been either raining, overcast & looks like rain, or in the 90s & humid.....feels like all of May and June, with July not much better so far... Not great carwashing weather. Good for getting preventive maintenance done.

    MCA Mid Atlantic Carwash Association Crab Fest

    Last event at Guinness was fun and well attended. Look forward to seeing people at the Crab Fest. Last time we had about 100 owners and operators at this Chesapeake Bay side event.

    Automatic Potential Revenue

    No risk No reward Sometimes you need to take a leap of faith. Cannot go wrong with a WW Razor. Very operator friendly and easy/quick to service. Plus you can control it remotely if necessary Do not overthink it. Even the best Proforma sheets can be wrong.

    Dixmor V7.42 Error

    Learned something interesting today about our JE Adams vacs with Dixmor LED7 timers. Had a vac that would display V7.42 error whenever we inserted money or used a CC. Checked all the wires, removed components and replaced them with similar components from similar vac next to the troubled...

    Big PSI difference at pump when trigger pulled.

    One way to reduce any negative feedback in public domain is to have a sign on building and in ALL equipment that says Any issues call or text (your name) at (your number). If you have space we add that everything is run by computers and high tech, sometimes things can go sideways unexpectedly...

    Big PSI difference at pump when trigger pulled.

    Good question. The reason we have a holding tank for rinse water is to have the ability to easily add hot water as an option. The hot water would go into the tank and you can add a heating element to keep it hot. We have not added hot water at this time but system was setup for it to be added...

    Big PSI difference at pump when trigger pulled.

    So I have a similar issue with two CAT310 pumps. I replaced the valves and seals. Pumps now work great in washdown mode and without the handle pulled. In talking with CAT tech support they said the issue definitely sounds as if the pump is being starved for water flow. I then traced all...

    Help

    May and June have been challenging months for many car washes due to crazy weather. Rain, heat, overcast days are not good for encouraging people to wash their cars. Also, after you have made some noticeable improvements you may want to promote new owner/management so please excuse any...
