    Help! Ginsan face plate wanted

    Weeks does not seem that bad for a 20 year old meter box door assembled. Does he have a few other bays so he can just do without for a few weeks? I would order it sooner than later instead of relying on someone to have one. Even if he found someone in a few days unless he has them next day air...

    Prospective 1st time owner - where to even start?

    Management, finances, and all that corporate stuff is about 2% of the business. If you dont drive a pick up get ready to sell what you have and get one. Get some work boots, buy a lot of tools, and be ready to get hands on whatever time of day it is. Make sure to learn electrical, plumbing. and...

    Ryko SoftGloss Maxx 5 - Color Wave

    Never owned a ryko but it's awfully nice of you guys to come on here and help out. I think you may be the only manufacture that does.

    Dencar Virtual Kiosk

    No sir they are not. I’m assuming that’s the case. From my understanding 2 of the 3 were installed and never used. There taking them out and installing something else before they open the wash up. Must be pretty serious though to throw away money like that. Great deal for dencar lovers though.

    That’s good to hear. Makes me wonder where Annora came up with 24 hours from.

    Soap in Rinse water

    Keno has a great idea. Could be the hose. If you disconnected the soap from bottom feed of the tank then there is no way it's getting into the pump. The only other spot on the tank is the inlet through the hydrominder.

    Soap in Rinse water

    Disregard my last post. Correct if you took them off and let it run for a while there should be no soap. That also eliminates any electrical issue with a solenoid too. TBH I don’t see any other way soap can get in there. I edited my last post to ask if you’re using hot water specifically...

    Are you running hot water right now?

    Cat 3535

    Been there done that. Best thing to use to thaw out lines is hot water. If it it ever happens again then take garden hose in the attic and spray down the trough. You'll be unthawed in less than 30 minutes. Assuming you have hot water on site.

    Dencar Virtual Kiosk

    WOW 24 hours? That makes me appreciate the 1 hour hold time to get through to Hamilton on the phone whenever I need them. Even if there hold music sucks.

    Weep system

    Are you using a weep mizer? Are all your boys controlled by a single weep solenoid or do you have a separate weep solenoid for each bay? Do you have ball valves to manually turn off the weep to each bay? Also with using weep guns they will drain the water out the boom and lines. Are you sure...

    Soap in Rinse water

    You need to check your soap, wax, and presoak solenoids for that bay and make sure one is not stuck open a little bit. Once you pull them apart give them a good cleaning and you should be good. If not there are repair kits available.

    Obsolete Gold Line with dial up

    Understandable plus they are really expensive. There is 3 dencar units new for sale on talk car wash for 25K. Dont know if that changes your mind. See attached. Seems like a great deal for any dencar lovers. Curious why they spent all that money and are pulling them out before even opening the...

    Programmable LED Sign

    I might be in the wrong business. That is absolutely stupid.

    Programmable LED Sign

    I would consider doing a double sided cabinet sign with led lights. You won't have to worry about pixels going bad plus even if a light goes bad you can find a replacement light cheap at your local Home Depot. Ive used signmonkey.com in the past and they make good products. Cant imagine it will...

    Never seen this at my wash

    Haha thats great. Ive seen quite a few girls make tik tok videos in the bay at my washes I usually just laugh at them and let them have a good time. Today though I experienced something that ive only seen a few times in 13 years. A "lady" that looks like a man pulls in opens front and rear door...

    Data Trax Upgrade

    Who told you no parts are available? I just sent in boards to be repaired probably few months ago. Did you talk to Datatrax yourself?

    Obsolete Gold Line with dial up

    Definitely do tap and swipe. Only problem with using cryptopay is a pre auth charge. Expect to get phone calls and bad reviews depending on your area if someone selects a $6 wash but is pre-auth for $10. There is no new controller. The LED display in the kit is what talks to your swiper/tap...
