Unless you give Worldpay 90 days notice of termination of their agreement which automatically rolls over year to year, they slam you with a $495.00 Cancelation fee.

I bough an empty / new Plastic Gallon Paint container with nice thick handle from Menarda. I am able to put $700 in quarters in it and it has a nice screw on top. Quarters weigh 5 pounds per $100. Carrying a gallon of paint is not something a crook would target. Looks like this but...

I could not see using non wire braid hose for a SS setup due to all the tugging, pulling and rubbing. The Neptune is wire braid rated at 3000 PSI while KR prices their 4000 PSI slightly higher. Don't know relative durability of each. I use the KR hose. .

Been using the KR VMK 19 for a long time - perhaps decades.

I don't know what degree of worse it would be but if there is space between the tire and roller - driving over the roller forward or bckward has a certain "Impact" aspect as opposed to the constant tension of having it pass under a stopped car.

Can't imagine 1/8" poly. I have that for my shampoo n vac and it produces enough for the single hole brush head on that unit . USe 3/8" poly for the Bays -Brush head has 6 holes.

I use these 4 - Each By. on each side wall at about 8 eet high positioned 2 feet in from each end wall. https://www.1000bulbs.com/product/230419/PLT-80066.html

Post #423 says sales are $5000 / mo. Your reply to how much profit says $4500?????

I think your margins may be standard but perhaps we are outdated or the wholesale costs for relatively small quantities we buy are too high. I was talking to a 7/1 operator about pricing and he indicated most 7/11 operators price a 2x cost plus 10-15 cents per item and of course tax is added...

IMO one of the biggest factors for wash (Cars Washed) volume is weather . This factor is beyond control. So, how do you incentivize to do something that can't be controlled. Instead, a bonus on additional revenue per car could encourage upselling.. If you offer memberships a bonus on...

If after "First Rinse" means there is another rinse, no I only did after final rinse. One place I saw did it after a first rinse but before the DA and setting arch. End product wasn't any better but I think he could use less DA because any soapy residue that counteracts DA was gone.

Many operators tried it over the years and few succeeded. Conversations indicated continually changing conditions of dirt and temperature made constant monitoring of cleaning solutions a nightmare. They could use high pressure to the point of knocking the paint off the car and the flakes...

There are reasons touchless tunnels are virtually non existent.

They have a flash dryer + 14 more. IMO overkill. I have had several setups. One had a flash dryer right after the rinse Then 7 more. Turned out a really dry car - perhaps not as much as 14 more. Saw another install where they put flash dryer before the Final rinse, drying agent...

Last industry article I saw was average $2K / Mo / SS Bat x 3 = $6k, and $6 / Mo/ IBA = $6K or $12/K / Mo or $144K / year. So someone is estimating 5X average?????

1/2" Braided. line. YAs endcap like this. https://www.menards.com/main/plumbing/water-systems/landscape-drainage/channel-drains-accessories/nds-reg-spee-d-channel-drain-endcap/247/p-1444448944328-c-1477921847883.htm?exp=false

Another issue , particularly i n Warmer climates is bacteria generate scum. This will occur overnight when solution remnants sits in the fomers. A piece of copper pipe in the foamer could reduce this since copper has some anti bacterial properties.

Just a vacuum hose from the Back room to the unit. Unit is a 6 foot plastic (Cut to length) trench drain from Menards. In the unit are 2 PVC lines T'd in the center. 1/2" for the liquid with 1/8 ich holes drilled every 6 inches facing down. The air is 2" to attach to the Vac Hose but...

If you are using Hydrominders and flo jets to feed the Generators toss a swimming pool chlorine tab in the hydrominder tank. This may help keep any bacteria generated goop from forming as well as algae if the generators get a lot of sunlight. If you are not using that type of system try a tab...
