I’ve had good success with Quest 4WD Hi – single step Pre-soak.
Titration at 20-25 drops?
Air-assisted application?
Streaking could be due to excessive Pre-soak volume and low air pressure.

Nearly all of my customers dispense $1 coins from their changers. With MicroCoin acceptors in every device, they also accept customer's quarters.
I converted to $1 coins in 1999...with $3.00 to start the bays. That didn't stop the customer's quarters from pouring in. Instead of regularly...
All of our installations are quietly awaiting this weekend's forecasted 20ish degrees.
Our pre-season freeze protection and floor heat system tests were completed last month.
Puzzling...All of my Nayax VPOS installations use the car wash’s 24 vAC tranformers. No smoke!

2Biz, Thanks for the acknowledgement. It’s astonishing how long it’s been since we worked on your system.
My current version takes advantage of Sieman’s/IDEC advancements in the SmartRelay platform…specifically it’s networking capability. Several SR can now be networked to provide expanded I/O...
Pulsation and pressure fluctuations are typically caused by air leaks in the pump's supply plumbing.
Since this issue exists when only when soap/wax/presoak are selected I would suspect a loose fitting, or a cracked product hose.
Rowe’s counter is the “Value of the bills accepted…not the number of “Bills Accepted”
$1 bills advance the counter 1 number.
$5 bills advance the counter 5 numbers, etc.
If the counter is providing incorrect information, I would consider replacing the counter.
We’ve always spec 4” of 4000+ psi concrete on compacted base.
We install 1/2” O2 barrier PEX over 3” foam insulation (Crete-Heat). The contractor must lower the finished grade to accommodate the new finished floor elevation.

Apply tape/dope to NPT fittings only.
Do not apply tape or dope on JIC or “non-working” swivels.
The tape/dope prevents the tapered faces from making full contact.
And, always remove the wad of tape from a reused fitting.
