    Building permit for an IBA install?

    Axxlrod nailed it. Just close the bay and re-load. Keep it low key the best you can. We just reloaded four sites in the last 3 years, total of 7 autos. No permits or inspections which made for a lot less stress.

    New Carwash and Detail Building

    Don't know what part of the country this is in but is it a cold climate? If so, where are you going to push snow? Our lots can get real small, real quick if and when we get heavy, prolonged snowfall. What about a dumpster? Front load garbage trucks are 35' long and quite heavy. If they...

    Ceramic in S.S bay?

    Greg, why do you need to inject polish dye? You know they make Vantagloss with yellow dye in it already, right?

    Bay lighting?

    I haven't read the reviews on these particular lights but I have used similar looking ones. Ours also have polycarb lenses which are fine, UNLESS, you have an application where they will be on 100% of the time. Eventually the heat build up will either crack the lens or loosen the poured in...

    Hamilton end of life for ACW's & Dial Up

    OMG.🤦🏻‍♂️ My eyes are worse than I thought! Reading any type of screen has gotten to be difficult. I’ve always been a Hamilton fan that’s why I thought only a one week notice was lame. I should be able to get them converted by next year🤣

    Hamilton end of life for ACW's & Dial Up

    Tried calling Hamilton this morning and finally just left them a message after sitting on hold for 30 minutes. Haven't heard back from them yet so I figured someone here might know. I have two questions as we're still using dial up at two locations. 1) I am assuming dial up will continue to...

    I wouldn't build that with your money.

    Subject: Urgent! CryptoPay Tap Exploit - Free Washes & Missing Transactions

    Mafia, at all my washes I keep an expired or voided credit card to swipe in all my devices (Hamilton, Cryptopay, Unitec etc) just to make sure they're reading and attempting to process cards. Last week or the week prior, I tried the card on a cryptopay tap on my ACW and shockingly it loaded a...

    Advice on increasing CPD on Petit

    Curious how the membership model affected your margin. What was your avg ticket when washing 25k versus now. Was the 25k/yr with the PDQ’s or the Petit/Hamilton combo pre-membership? 65,000/12/600 is an average of 9 visits per member per month. I wouldn’t be making any money if that math is...

    Are you going to re-post your sales videos every week in every forum category? Lets not turn this forum into a sales rag. I appreciate the innovation but you've posted it five times now.

    Closing on Sunday

    Do what you want, its your business. We however, get a lot of people who wash on the way to church or when leaving church. If someone wants a clean car to go to church in, they're not waiting until Monday to wash.

    Slugbuster 2 issues

    If the sample coin is loose in the holder, that will cause the reject arm to constantly click. That may or may not be your issue, but something to check.

    Petit 360 worth the extra money????

    I don't believe they are modified at all. They are definitely not IMEG as there is no vane in them. I had to unclog one the other day and checked the size, 0512.

    Hamilton Goldline IDTECH cc retrofit

    Got it. Didn't know KR had a retrofit door! I have a Goldline that I simply added the swiper to. If you're talking to Dencar, would you mind asking if they are considering a Unitec Portal Door?

    Hamilton Goldline IDTECH cc retrofit

    Roz, what is this IDTECH retrofit? Your question regarding 'it's' fee makes it sound like its a third party card processing solution like cryptopay or nayax etc. Do you have a link to it?

    Magikist Secure Coin Issues

    Has anyone else bought any of the red units lately and had issues right out of the box? I had a brand new acceptor which refused to accept quarters which they are factory programmed for. I had to send it back to Canada, for warranty, which an expensive pain in the ass. Today, I installed...

    WW Razor - Tips for changing HP hose

    Thanks for all the suggestions. It wasn't too bad. Getting the old hose out was twice as hard as getting the new one back in. The dividers between the polylines and the HP hose were tight to the HP hose and kept getting hung up on the spiral wrap. Our bay width doesn't help either. We're...

    WW Razor - Tips for changing HP hose

    Apparently our Razor V4’s high pressure hose blew out today in the e-chain and needs replaced. My brother looked at it today and said it wasn’t straight forward as to how to go about getting it out. On our old Typhoon the E-Chain snapped open, but he couldn’t figure out how or if the Razor...
