    Your carwash scratch my car!

    Customer Hits Carwash, wants Waxman to Pay

    Conveyors At least it wasn't someone leaving the car in drive and ramming into the car in front and then blaming the machinery. I had an insurance adjuster tell me that they hate getting calls about this type of situation because the customer is always 100% sure that they left the car in...

    DRB SYSTEMS VS. ICS and MICROLOGIC

    So anyone that has read some of my other posts, they know in the past I was an ardent supporter of DRB Systems. My number one reason for having confidence in DRB Systems was their support staff, in the last three years I've felt their support team as eroded to a level of dismal. I've been told...

    DRB FastPass / ARM

    Drb Easy Wash I had the same thing occur with DRB on another BB with a posting that I placed about their service. If people don't think that these boards get traction, you are wrong, all the manufacturers are watching and reading. I say if it doesn't work the fastest way to get it fixed is...

    Turbo Nozzles on Washworld/Laser?

    EASY Do you have or use reclaim? Just know that the Turbo nozzle uses a little piece of ceramic that spins in the coin, which creates the spinning stream. If you have reclaim or hardwater it will get clogged on a regular basis.

    How much $ on advertising?

    Bill is that 5-10% a benchmark from somewhere? The real question is not how much but where you spend it. My wash is in a suburb of a major city, and the local newspaper has been most effective for me in advertising. It's a free local newspaper that you pick up at any local store, in my type...
