    Attempted theft

    signs are like video cameras as we see people will still vandallize, but what we can’t see is how much vandalism it has prevented. i think each and all deterrents are time and money well spent!

    Dollar coin shortage?

    i switched to customized high security 1$ tokens in december. ordered from james at van brook and it took about 10 days. i went with 10,000 in order to get 1000 free. i think with the design and shipping it all came out to about 31 or 32 cents each for the 11000

    Blow down or weep?

    your right earl, doesn’t matter the temp as some will still try. which brings up a good point for new owners, be sure to turn off power to the bays as the entitled public feels it’s okay to move your cone and reopen your bay for you

    Blow down or weep?

    Ryko OHD strange noises

    I can’t figure out where the squeal is coming from, as it’s very sporadic. it will do it on the first to presoak‘s then not on the high pressure. And also it might be only on 1 out of 50 cars

    Mirror damage to an old car

    i wouldn’t! i had a lady pull out of my automatic with her rear bumper dragging the ground claiming the brushes ripped it off. i checked cameras and everything appeared fine on her old piece of crap SUV entering. i told her the only way it would come off in the wash was if it wasn’t attached...
