    Showing off a new sign

    I wish more businesses would do this. Soon I'll have a giant flag painted on one of my white walls that faces the street sometime soon. Nice work.

    Air Dryer guns

    I'm using the air logic guns and love them. I bought screws and acorn nuts and drilled completely through the outside diameter. In two years I've only lost two due to theft. No problems once the screws were installed.

    Hog King Foam Brush

    I use the Hog Daddy brushes as well. They seem to hold up very well. I do install new ones each spring to keep them fresh. Customers like them.

    Air Valve needed

    This weekend I have an air shutoff valve go bad on my tire system. This valve is 115Volt and turns off and on the air flow to the my flojet. The inlets are 1/4 pipe. Looked on Kleenrite and they seem to out of everything. Anywhere else I can locate one online that you guys know of? Also these...

    Pricing -am I out of touch?

    I've been lurking on this post for a while and I made the decision to increase my price this weekend to $4.00 start price for 4 1/2 minutes. I'm at $3.50 now for a very busy 4 bay, 6 vacuum wash. I don't see any real impact on my customers. Just the other day I stopped and got a burger for...

    Dixmor 6 timer and equipment room timers

    Thanks for everyone's feedback. MEP I'll check the wiring next time I'm at the wash. I'm sure its disconnected from the room seeing I've had no issues. Positive thinking here.. This is very helpful. Thanks

    Dixmor 6 timer and equipment room timers

    Good to know. Is it as simple as removing the existing input power to the old-timer? I don't want to cause other issues as it's been working great for two years now. Thanks for the input!

    Dixmor 6 timer and equipment room timers

    Good morning, I'm running Dixmor 6 timers in my bays and getting ready to change my start-up price. Do those timers override the ones installed in my control boxes in the equipment room? I upgraded the bay panels a couple of years ago and kept the same startup price so I'm just unsure when I go...

    Cryptopay Swipe vs. Tap ?

    I purchased 4 about 6 months ago and haven't installed them yet. My fear is more chargebacks. I can see people not hitting the button to end the charges. By having to separate units the customers need to actually think. We all know how that ends. Anyone run into this and have some thoughts?

    Coccka in my Crypto

    I just experienced the same thing and mailed one back to them for service. Just received it back yesterday with a note that said. No charge we just picked some small debris out of it. You may check that first.

    Cryptopay Installation on Meter Door

    I just re-upped mine at $180.00. See the website for details. It's worth it.

    Best aluminum sealer?

    I would take a look at POR-15 products. I've used them for years and with the proper prep work will last a long time.

    Quarters rolling through directly to the reject slot.

    Thanks for checking on that for me. Just got back from the wash and found the coin sensor was gummed up. Cleaned them out and works great. I also solved another issue as well. I've been noticed small chunks of orange plastic in my coin vaults. Not good for hoppers either. Was cleaning each...

    Quarters rolling through directly to the reject slot.

    Randy, we have the IDX-850 units and one is acting up. Same thing rolling right through. Do the Microcoin use the same metal bracket? Curious if it's a direct replacement. Thanks

    Micro Fiber towels

    I don't wrap them at all. Just fold them a little smaller than the size of the shelf. No jams whatsoever. We use the 16X16. Were looking to install a new vendor which will open our options wide open. Good luck!

    Micro Fiber towels

    I bought Dr Joes black towels from Kleenrite when they were $.36 cents each (now $.45 cents). Vend them for $1.00 and they sell out each week. We have a towel folding party around the kitchen table and prep them for Laurel vending. Could charge more but my current vending machines have...

    Cryptopay/IQ worldpay chargeback dispute

    I stopped fighting them due to how long it took and was never successful. We maybe get 2-3 a year and it's just not worth my time.
