    Best thread sealant?

    I stopped using white years ago. I use blue for everything, then put pipe dope on top if it's 1" or larger. Sometimes even if 3/4" depending on application.

    Mortons Clean and Protect Softener Salt

    That's pretty expensive. I'm ok with a little color and paying around $6/bag. Adds up quickly.

    Mortons Clean and Protect Softener Salt

    I called them two months ago when I noticed it was brown. They knew about it, said it shouldn't be an issue and just a different color coming out of production.

    Foam brush soap for HP soap?

    I think Randy uses HP Soap for Foam Brush. I've almost run out in the past and had planned on using my Brush Soap. Can't imagine they are much different if at all.

    Petit or razor

    Washworld support is excellent and machines easy to work on. I have 5. I had PDQ G5's and they were a nightmare to work on.

    Solenoid KR link

    This is what you can use instead: https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-9122-g-c-valves-s211af24k4dg1-brass-normally-closed-solenoid-valve-1-2-in-24-vac-metallic-conduit-housing.aspx It is for a Coleman Stand it seems. They also sell repair kits if you just need the diaphragm.

    Subscription Model For IBA

    Didn't work for me. Average was sitting over 5 for a while. I could not get enough members to lower the number. Also had tons of abuse and spent way too much time policing. Probably depends on your demographics. I used Everwash.

    Radiant Heater Repair

    The long pipe on my radiant heater wore out in a spot and I need to put in a coupling and replace the last 1' or so where it goes into the main housing. I was thinking a coupling and 1' of 3" pipe. What material should I be looking for? Is there something specifically made for those?

    Yep! Did a 50/50 split with a company, then ended up buying my own.

    Lol I don't get it. Reminds me of a news story I heard a couple week ago. An old lady got scammed out of 7k. Said she knew she was getting scammed, but kept listening to the guy and giving him money anyway. Now wants other to know her story.

    Touchless Front & Rear Eyebrow removal

    I have chased the eyebrow removal unicorn for 11 years. Finally was able to get it removed using Viper from Synergy. It's a polymer and I only apply one heavy pass. I have it working great at one wash 95% of the time on my G5's, trying to replicate it on my Razor now at my other site. Not...
