    I believe he is wanting to use the reclaimed laundromat water in the car wash, not the laundromat.

    New pay station signs! Thoughts

    I would rather have the credit card logo's than the straight font. People don't read anything, but will recognize a visa, or mastercard logo.

    EMV Credit Card compliance by April 2021

    You had me until you said worldpay. They are impossible to deal with. If you call them you better not plan on doing anything for the next hour or so. They have locked me out of my account so many times I have given up on ever logging on to it again. They lock your account if you don't log on...

    Dixmor Weep Mizer VS compressed air

    I used to have an old superwash machine that I used all compressed air on and it worked pretty well. Of course it only had one hose going to the machine and it was all downhill. I also had it set up to purge with air wait a few minutes and purge again.

    Billboards on your property. What do you get paid?

    I was looking at a purchasing a property that has a large double sided billboard sign by lind located on the property. These are the same billboards you see along the highway. The guy said he was being paid $500 a year which I thought seemed low. Does anyone else have any experience with this?

    Cat pump oil revisit

    I have read the older forums where various operators said to use SAE30 oil in their cat pumps. When I read the cat pump oil bottle it says ISO68 "petroleum-based , hydraulic oil with advanced additive package to protect against wear, oxidation, rust and corrosion" So why wouldn't you just use...

    Cryptopay Tap...What a missed opportunity

    I saw Kleen Rite released a video on Cryptopays new tap credit card reader. My first thought is why didn't the make the swipe and tap into 1 unit? It appears you need the swipe head and the tap unit is an additional unit. Who wants junk mounted all over their meter boxes, vacs, and...

    Car Wash Vehicle Dryer In VACUUM Area? Not Apples to Apples You Think?

    I have an automatic wash at one of my washes that currently doesn't have a dryer. I was thinking of adding a drive thru dryer in the parking lot to service both the automatic and the selfserve bays if they wanted to. Like you said, just have a paystation for just the dryer.

    Interested in building a self service ATV Wash

    It doesn't matter if you have a bay dedicated for muddy vehicles. If a muddy vehicle comes in and sees a bay they don't have to wade through mud they are going to use the clean bay. All bays will end up being mud bays if you allow it.
