    Underbody Wash

    I’d say Vee Jet - wide angle perhaps 50° or so and a capacity of 40 or so. So it would be a 5040. Depends how far apart you are spacing them and how much flow you will have in your manifold. You will want high volume if you are using city pressure and not your hp pump.

    Back up plate

    What gets me when I hear things like this is that the front of her car was probably out of your building- unless you have a very long bay.

    Just slow it down in the summer 😆

    Another nice thing about the Typhoon is the onboard hp wheel and rocker blaster option.

    I think ShinePro is using this too and likes it.

    Bad news, Good news

    So very glad you won this one! Great to hear your story - it reminds us all how thin the margins of life are. Take care and I wish you the best recovery.

    Thawing Bay Drain Grates

    If you have a hot water tap and enough garden hose to drag out, that will melt it down a lot faster than the hp gun in the bay. You’ll get a pretty good volume of pure hot water that should make relatively short work of it.

    Intro and first question

    I know a lot of the washes there and have been familiar with many owners and their changes over time. The boulevard used to have several tunnels like Dewitt, whale of a wash, boulevard car wash etc. that got pushed out when Delta Sonic entered your region. Since then Delta built a few more...

    New touchless automatic Chinese wash

    Yes, but when Japanese and Korean cars were introduced into the US market it they were not anywhere near the quality they are today. Many of them have evolved immensely and it is their current quality that puts them on par with other manufacturers. They didn’t drive the price of domestic cars...

    Property and liability insurance

    Is the insurance company basing that quote on the fact that it is currently full serve, and will it go down when you convert it to flex serve? Either way, it is a lot, but I’m wondering if the high labor associated with the full serve is driving up the premiums because of potential employee...

    Nothing that I can see. I’m assuming you have to have another one to do the other side of the car.

    I think if I had this in my tunnel I’d be constantly wondering if it was going to attack me. https://www.carwashrobotics.com/videos-1

    8-bay self service carwash

    Love the organization of the equipment room.

    New touchless automatic Chinese wash

    Hard to tell from the pic, but where are the drive wheels on the rail that move the bridge?

    New touchless automatic Chinese wash

    Good luck with it and keep us posted once it is up and running. Nice looking bay floor.

    Long Bay Petit

    Other cool thing about it is you can put in their friction wash or touchfree wash and set it up as an eclipse.

    Long Bay Petit

    That bay length is really long - if you don’t want a mini tunnel, you could almost fit one of those oasis eclipse set ups in there. I’m not a salesman and I know you have your equipment selected, but with that length bay, you really should maximize the offerings and throughput of an IBA...
