    Make your own soap?

    I’m all ears. Presoak is soaking me! What’s the cheapest high ph Presoak?

    Triple foam dryer

    You’re probably right. I was thinking about that foam getting on someone’s skin or clothing and staining it like it does mine. I might put a new flojet on the TF tomorrow to see if I can get it going. Thanks

    Triple foam dryer

    I thought I could get a separator for the water. Plenty of humidity here.

    Triple foam dryer

    No seriously, this compressor is a Beast. I was leaning more towards drying motorcycles.

    Triple foam dryer

    I have been having trouble getting the triple foam working but I know I’ll get it. Question is, do customers use it? I’ve never personally seen it in action so I don’t know. I have a massive new 10hp 120 gallon saylor beal compressor. I’ve been thinking about using it via the triple foam booms...

    Rainbow foam gun

    Thanks for this ! My hands are blue. And I have a feeling they will be for a week.

    Rainbow foam gun

    I can only guess that the foam was messy. It’s not working yet, but I’m getting it together. I don’t completely understand flojets. Does one line pump a diaphragm with air and does air also assist the liquid? What’s the proper sequence to get them working?

    Rainbow foam gun

    Thank you! The previous owner mentioned that people made a mess. I think I’ll make the trip to CWS today and get everything needed. I’ve never seen these in action.

    Rainbow foam gun

    Does anyone use these ? There’s a place for it on the selector switches so I’d like to find hydrominder brackets and everything else it needs to get up and running. I found the guns in the attic, and the booms are still in the bays.

    Self Serve Spot Free Pump/Motor Recommendation

    That orange one is the one currently in use. Maybe I need the high flow bypass you mentioned. It acts strange. The guage will bounce up to 250-300 for a second then maybe 20 psi. I keep getting air out of the bleeder. I think that pump has been in use since day one.

    Self Serve Spot Free Pump/Motor Recommendation

    I forgot about that. So it’s really aggressive yet we put it on last and leave it. I’ll have to read up on that and try to wrap my little walnut around it. Don’t get me wrong,I know you’re right!

    Self Serve Spot Free Pump/Motor Recommendation

    My SFR went out today and I have three hydraulic pump stands (spares). What would I have to do to make one work? If even possible. Below is what I’ll be replacing. Thanks for any info! I’m so tired of spending so dang much money. I also have this jet pump as another possible ( maybe, I have no...

    SFR pressure

    No I haven’t a clue. I agree there are multiple issues.

    SFR pressure

    Ok. I’ll start with a bigger hose going to it. Then, if necessary, I’ll run the 50’ to the bay. Thanks!

    SFR pressure

    Do I adapt the 1” to make use of that solenoid or find another solenoid?

    SFR pressure

    You can see how much that solenoid is reduced… it’s feeding the automatic!! I’m going to start by replacing it with 1/2” hose. I bet it’s 50’ long. They just went cheap. How is that supposed to build pressure to nine nozzles on the auto?

    SFR pressure

    I put the regulator back in and one thing I noticed is that when SS Bay 1 is on SFR, bay 3 blows out SFR . I didn’t see any from bay 2. Do the solenoids only hold back so much pressure? The guage was between 200-300 psi. Still very little SFR in the automatic. Oh yeah and a new wash is going in...

    The TDS measured zero as I refilled it. I went back yesterday and removed the regulator. The tiny streams would surge to slightly larger ones. I don’t know if an air pocket can form or not. I used the gauge to bleed out air.
