    Looking for A perfect Start Up Manager?

    Serious question. If you are operating the 3rd largest car wash in the US which I dont even know what that means TBH and have established 60 plus washes then why are you posting ads to get work?

    Converting Vacs to Card Only

    I had a guy install some on his dixmor led 3 a while ago. They were Doyle vacs. Im not sure what type of transformer he had but apparently it wasn't enough to power the timer and swiper. He installed a separate transformer or maybe he installed a bigger one I cant really remember to get...

    Converting Vacs to Card Only

    Why is that? Ive never done one but ive heard all you have to do is install a separate transformer to power the swiper.

    Anyone using the new CJX Timers

    I built them myself but I bought the doors directly from Coleman. Each door complete w/ Cryptopay probably cost me $1500.

    Barbed fitting - hose breaking loose

    Is the hose Parker 300PSI? One thing you can do to quickly solve this is just put on a HP hose.

    The doors themselves just the stainless steel plate and hinge are $80 a piece.

    Marketing a new wash (collecting emails)

    Lmao thats great. One thing I'll say is just make sure everything works. Make sure everything is right. Make sure it's always clean as much as possible. The best way to retain customers is by having a properly run car wash. Word of mouth goes a long way.

    Anyone using the new CJX Timers

    Defiantly a coleman. I completely forgot thats what they did with the doors that have bill validators with PBC boards because of the timer slot location. It's been awhile. Unfortunately with those doors your probably stuck using that display if you want to keep your validators. I recently...

    Marketing a new wash (collecting emails)

    Maybe im just a little old school but personally the only thing more annoying then getting promo emails and texts is spam calls. If some business somehow gets ahold of my email/number which I hope they dont which is why I give fake ones but if they do then text me or email me It probably will...

    Buying 1 in bay with 5 SS - not operational

    Im a big coleman fan especially for their self serve equipment and vacs. I think they make the best SS equipment and vacs out there. My opinion obviously. SORRY DAN IS YOU READ THIS! Im not saying there IBA is bad at all because its not when they actually came out they were way ahead of there...

    Rusting Medeco plug lock housings

    Does not surprise me at all. It does work great though. I looked at a 6 year old paystation today after remembering our towns post and the housing/plug lock had no rust at all. Yes the self serve bay probably gets hit with a lot more water but the entrance wheel blasters I have and overspray...

    Mosmatic Comfort Hose

    Thank you Greg. Great assessment. Let us know what the wife thinks. I think the 1/4" route is going to be better for my situation. I won't have to worry about someone cutting it and even if it's rare I won't have to worry about it kinking and stopping the weep in the winter. I did order a...

    Well that makes sense then why they actually last compared to other products they “manufacture”

    What Kleen Rite IBA/SelfServ Chemicals Have You Been Happy With?

    Blendco went cheap on the powder in last year. Bought raws from different supplier to save money like they aren't making enough. Tanks are titrating significantly lower with the "new" powder that they won't admit but sent "chemists" out to locations to try to figure out why. All their other...

    Beautiful building. Has good bones. What did you go with WW or Petit?

    Buying 1 in bay with 5 SS - not operational

    Any vacuum motor that runs on the same voltage will work. You can opt for the more reliable brands like ametek lamb or choose an economy version "made" by kleen rite. You get what you pay for but I will say the KR motors do last quite a bit surprisingly compared to everything else they "make".

    Anyone using the new CJX Timers

    Please post pic. Ive never seen a Coleman meter box door with remote display. Not saying they didn't make one but only one I seen was some cheap aftermarket one sold on eBay. Either way if dixmor will work for you then you will be very happy you dont got to deal with that b&c garbage anymore.
