    Feel like I'm held hostage by Google Reviews

    Couple days ago I did a "google search" of something like "are google reviews accurate". There are web sites that are solely dedicated to get the word out about just how inaccurate google, Amazon and other reviews are.

    Feel like I'm held hostage by Google Reviews

    I'm one of those that doesn't like Google Reviews. Several years ago I added my ownership information to their review site and now I wish I'd never done that. Some of these people that post reviews are just plain jerks and dishonest as the day is long. There's nothing like getting a notice...

    Cryptopay pre auth possible solution

    WashGear used to have a different way of pre-authorizations- they didn't preauthorize. Every card worked up to $10 then when the customer was done that amount was sent along. Customer was charged immediately what was used and that's the amount they saw immediately on their phones or...

    Vacuum Locks

    I've thought how about poison ivy juice and spray it inside the vacs as well as into the garbage cans and dumpster. Set up cameras and watch those poor saps with bare hands and arms going through all those......

    Vacuum Locks

    We have the same problem. We try to empty them each late afternoon to discourage the effort of these jerks that go through the dirt. If you put something on the vac that really makes it hard to open those doors they'll just destroy the whole vacuum to get to those pennies. It's frustrating to...

    Q-See cameras out of business

    I tried all that IP and port forwarding that the QSee site instructed but couldn't get it to work. However, I don't understand a lot of that stuff. I unplugged all my cameras and installed a Lorex DVR that I'd never used, gave their (Lorex) customer support a phone call and in about 5 minutes...

    Q-See cameras out of business

    On their site they give instructions on how you can change some of the settings and have your app go directly to your DVR bypassing their cloud/whatever servers. I haven't tried it yet.

    How has everyone faired vs tunnel?

    Thank you for your thoughts. I'm in that challenge right now.

    Normal business ?

    This subject has been my biggest complaint for the past year in both business and home projects. Not getting businesses to return calls, emails, texts, nothing. At least I'm not the only one frustrated with this change in business practices. Drives me nuts.

    Car Wash Scents

    Anyone know where I can purchase car wash scents to add to my chemicals? Would like to try adding more of the same to my chemicals.

    American Changer still in business?

    I've called their tech and parts departments 7 times in the past two weeks, nobody answers. They finally ask me to leave voice mail and they'll call me back. Never do. They still around?

    Car wash Superstore vs Kleen rite

    I buy with CWS with everything I can with their free shipping option. Their communication is awesome with great emails telling me the status of their shipping with tracking numbers. If they don't have something they call me! Never had that done with KR- you wait for it to show up and it never...

    Paraplate Regulator

    I agree with Randy...again. Our local landfill has quite a few BR52 regulators that I used to rebuild and fight. Now I use SMC 555 and like them a lot.

    Electroswitch Failing

    What they all said. If you want to tear a stiff one apart (it'll be tough to get it put back together) to just see what's going on. The stiffness is from where the rod goes through the housing or threaded part of the switch. Apply a very generous glob of that grease on the stem where it...

    Cryptopay on Vacuums.. Worth it

    That's what I'm seeing at my washes too. It's the "per swipe fee" that kills low startup charges like vacs and vending. For me I only have cryptopay on my vacs and vending as a convenience. It's not about the money I'm making, or not making.

    Cryptopay swiper on an American Changer token machine

    With Nayax and the chip reader if a customer removes the card before the sale is complete then the Nayax unit shuts down/freezes up for 10-15 minutes. And as we all know you can't teach a customer anything these days- "leave your card in there!!!"

    Cryptopay swiper on an American Changer token machine

    Anyone out there doing this? Does it work? I've got Nayax swipers on my machines and they're driving me nuts.

    Took the Shine off of a truck. Help.

    Those years of GM vehicles had bad paints. I've had them go through my IBA's with those dulling results. The presoaks treat the oxidized paint as dirt and "lifts" that oxidation and makes it look dull. 30 years ago when there were a lot of those GM's around we would have all kinds of...
