It doesn't matter whether you use shielded or unshielded. Both will work.

Rfarm, You need to remove the existing paint before you apply a new one. Any new coating that you apply to the paint will bond to the existing paint but if the existing paint lets go the new coating will come with it. If it has to be painted, then the best solution is to remove the current...

I have never tried to change how much cone movement a LaserWind has. However, I would start by looking at the length and angles of the connecting arms. The square drive shaft turns the plastic cams, which are all alike. The only difference is in the length of the connecting arms and how and...

The most common fund raiser for IBAs and Tunnels is to sale coupons or codes to the group at a discount. They in turn sale them for face value and keep the difference. Personally, I have had more luck with giving $1 for every car that washes at a location during a specific week. The group has...

Okay here goes. PDQ vs. Wash World, depends heavily on the distributor. Wash World is more willing to work with you over the phone directly, PDQ will want you to first work with your distributor. There are good and bad distributors for both. Get to know your distributors and look for...

I use a floor jack with a pole to jack up one end at a time. Be prepared for the old rollers to not release from the shafts. I recommend extra shafts just in case. When you install the new rollers, remember to put antisieze on the inside of the bearings and it will help with changing next...

i'm looking forward to having it in Nashville. I really don't enjoy Vegas. It just isn't my kind of thing. I will be there.

Instead of a booster pump you can replace the factory standard Procon pump with the optional Sta-Rite pump. Remember to get the stand that allows it to bolt in place of the Procon. If you need more air, you can tee off the incoming air line, add a solenoid that fires when the 3x Foam solenoid...

As long as it doesn't hit the eye, you and your customers will be fine if they get sprayed by the high pressure.

9 feet from the center of the side blaster pipe on the drivers side to the center of the side blaster pipe on the passenger side.

I was running low pH followed by high pH when the staining happened at one of our locations. After watching how the low pH made the stain release and wash off in the rinse, I reversed the order and ran high pH followed by low pH. The staining stopped. I then changed chemical suppliers about 4...

I have had this problem before. I found reversing the order of the Low pH and High pH made it go away. I don't know exactly why. By the way what brand of Tri Foam are you using?

Have you tried sparing out the 24CX22, 24CX23, and 24CX24 wires on the Trolley's Blue Festoon Cable? They should be wires 1, 2, and 3 respectively. If the wires have a break inside the cable then they can have power applied incorrectly to the X22, X23, or X24 causing the arch to turn at the...

You can plug the dump valve with no affect on the wash unless it is more than two bays away from the equipment room. The further away from the equipment room, the more time you will need to give the low pressure delay and high pressure delay to make up for the lack of dump valve. You can also...
