    Unlimited washing for self serve?

    I'm thinking about doing this by utilizing the cryptopay swipers. I figure there is a couple of ways to do it with one being available now but expensive, and the other not yet ready but much cheaper. cryptopay currently has a fleet program where you can get cards from them and give them to...

    Simomiz Hot Wax

    you are definitely paying too much for it, that's why I asked. it sounds like you are paying list price, my guess you can get it 20-25% less, maybe you have to sign a contract to get it but what your paying is high. if they balk I would just say how am I supposed to compete when other operators...

    Sonnys Dryer

    Sounds like someone field engineered something there..... i would start questioning what other home remedies were done..... was there a reason the thing was reversed? For example i had to reverse mine last year when i added elephant ears because the bags were too close to vehicles and touching...

    Simomiz Hot Wax

    How much are you paying and what size? Where are you? C.A.R. Products (division of dubois chem and affiliated with blendco) has a “foaming repel with carnauba wax” that is great, and cheaper.

    G5 HP Nozzle alternative??

    We use g-5's, watch out, the male end of the pdq ones are actually check valves in each nozzle. You can disassemble them and clean them so they spin again though if thats your problem. And you have to make sure if you replace them with anything aftermarket it has the same specs. Otherwise you...
