Oh yea
I replaced it with an actual wash world part that had the wrap.
I would make sure it has some sort of wrap to protect it from rubbing as it moves.
never thought of not protecting it.
With the questionable parts quality these days I keep replacements in stock all the time. I de-test...
The downside to Ceramic- really good ceramic!
tree pollen does not stick to the car like it did with old hot wax.

3 Customers today said same thing
When I pulled out with my truck this morning, within a qtr mile it had all blown off. Looked like I just washed it!
Fair enough!
I also offer a hi pressure Rainshield (rain…product)on the ss bays. Was popular until the ceramic showed up.
Applied nice - you could smell it everywhere!
It’s a nice option
Wax is old school
Go ceramic. My Customers are going ape over the new ceramic in the self serve bays I have used more Ceramic in last two months than I did wax in 6.
I will never have another wax product in the wash!
Had a guy today, lives 24 miles from my wash. Said I drive up here just...

Begin sliding new one in.
Once you get hose to the curve
Move the carriage forward far enough to...

Lots of tunnels up there.
Mister, Tidal Wave, and more. We scouted those out 2 yrs ago when we were down there to see what was coming our way.
Lots to see!!
I get 3 statements from World Pay.
1 Crypto pay for ss bays
1 Hamilton Commander paystation
1 Hamilton APP

I ve complained about combining these with zero luck!
I believe I pay a flat monthly fee for chargebacks.
$10. I believe- but I’ll look again
The nice thing about Cryptopay is that...
Same here as far as the lower washes go
I m not in a wealthy town either.
But getting rid of those older items has not cost me anything.
I use less water.
The tri foam is less $$$
Carnuba hot wax was expensive/ car
And my wash times are faster
= less $ cost per car.
Top wash package
(And this ought to stir some comments)
But its what the aggressive tunnels are doing, converted to an IBA

Equipment needs to be reliable and needs a GOOD distributor.
