We offer free lifetime tech support for our washes. This support goes with the wash so even if it changes owners we will do whatever we can to help anyone over the phone. We have to limit this to the Ryko customers in our state but I am willing to help others find prints and information on their...
I would be leery of anything new. The frame and many of the components on the newest version of the Softgloss (Softgloss Max) is over 15 years old dating back to the Voyager 2 (Velvet Touch). I have yet to scrap one of the washes, they just get rebuilt and sometimes reinstalled somewhere else. I...
