That's why it's called the "Profile". The sensor actually sees a digital image of the vehicle and can tell it's a pick-up. You can watch the screen and actually see what the machine is seeing. The top brush does not go down into the bed. It goes over the roof of the cab and keeps going...
I believe you're exactly right about the 7 per hr. That's what I've figured in the past based on our wash times. Every time we've tried to speed up the process, we've had problems with the quality of the wash. Will be interesting to see what happens when we put in the Razor, since it is...
Thank you. Yesterday was our first full day open since the "Big Freeze" here in TX. It took 3 days to fix broken pipes and the equipment. We were getting calls every day from folks asking "when will you be open?" I was encouraged by their support; and bummed out that we couldn't open sooner.
I just wanted to add something about Triple Foam, since it was discussed earlier in this thread. For those who think TF is a "do without," we ran 101 cars through our Profile yesterday and 79 bought the top wash with the Triple Foam. It blew me away. We've never had a percentage of top wash...
Yes. When we had the PDQ Tandem with the actual brushes for wheel cleaners, we had several claims for scratched wheels. There's no liability with the touchless and it does it great job.
Ours are also touchless and agree with everything you just stated. We use a high alkaline cleaner in ours by ChemQuest -- Select 35 -- and it does a great job.
It's definitely an individual decision you'll have to make. My distributor tells us we're the only ones they have, who have the wheel detailers. I wanted to offer our customers something they don't get at the other automatics in the area, and there are only a couple within a 30-minute drive...
On top of all that, I just got a call from WW advising that although they were "planning to be here today", they now can't find the pipes needed within 6 of their suppliers, which seems to now be a big problem. They'll be running around all day looking for them, so now I have no idea when...
Coach, I feel for you. Our small town has such an antiquated infrastructure that there were leaks in their lines everywhere and the City's water was shut off for a couple of days, and when they finally turned it back on, it was alternately for 5-6 hours at a time while they worked on fixing all...
Thanx so much. The new bay for the Razor will be the same type of building, but a bit smaller. And to Coach's comment of the timing of the Top Wash, we've asked them to speed it up and have tried various things, but the results didn't make the customers happy, since we seemed to get more...
The 7-1/2 for the Top Wash does not include the blower. The vehicle moves from the wash area after 7-1/2 min. into the drying, area and the next vehicle moves in, and the dryer is timed for 1 minute on the exiting vehicle. The Top Wash starts with a Bug Pass and Presoak, followed by 2 passes...
We have 3 washes: Basic Wash is about 4 min.; middle wash is 5-1/2 min. and Top Wash is 7-1/2 min. The Base Wash is a single pass, and the other 2 are double passes. Middle and Top wash include Bug Pass and Tire Scrub; and Top Wash adds Triple Foam and Carnauba application. All 3 include...
We installed a WW Profile-Max in late 2018. It's loaded, to include Triple Foam, Foam & Flow and Wheel Detailer (high pressure, not brush). We also have their Power Tower and Undercarriage wash. I wouldn't change anything, but will warn that depending on your car-count, things do wear out and...
