Washworld Razor: anyone have (or had) issues where the presoaks and low pressure functions are spitting the product out, not evenly coating the car? Running into that issue and have been for a while. Lowering air to 38psi when ideally it should be around 60psi. Tech support is already...

Right now, I've got a huge silo tank in our chemical room, about 10-12 feet tall, for our SF water. Not sure the capacity. Another operator stopped by and said he uses a much smaller tank. What size tank is everyone using for their SF storage. I have a 3SS and 1 ACW. Any benefits going smaller?

I've seen some operators applying presoaks hi/low or low/hi (not my point here) without a dwell time in between. Rather, the dwell time is at the end once both soaps are applied. I've even seen triple foam applied on top of the presoaks after the dwell time, before high pressure rinse. Anyone...

Fellow Operators, I have a SS Cat 623 pump that loses pressure when I switch to HP Soap. Feeds are free and clear and the pump works well for rinse, HP Wax and all low pressure functions work well. I've switched the wax and soap solenoids and the problem remains on the HP soap option. I put on...

At present, I'm set up to accept dollar coins, except for my air machine, which accepts CC. Our startup price for SS is $3.50 for 5 mins. We want to dispense dollar coins to avoid the hassle of the change machine, so frequently. I wonder if I should raise prices to $4.00 or lower them to $3.00...

Evening fellow operators. I own a wash (3 SS and 1 IBA Touchless). Love being an operator, by the way! I'm looking to ditch our boiler and hot water tank for two tankless hot water heaters. I'm looking at some of the Bosch ones on Kleen-Rite and Paloma from another vendor. For those of you...

At what temperature point do you close and open doors for your IBAs?

I need to replace my foam brush soap pump. Any recommendations on what to use or buy. Three bays. Currently using a myers pump with a low pressure switch on the side. Thank you in advance!

I have to share my most recent experience with carwashconsignment.com. I listed an item for sale and Hannah/Allen contacted me with an offer of $1000.00. I rejected the offer and told them my desired price for the item. Soon thereafter, the buyer contacted me and we discussed certain features of...

My triple foam on my IBA is coming out white, with little color. The foam is great, but white. The solutions are diluted as directed on the side of the container. Flowjet pumps are set to 70psi while air that mixes with foam is set to 30psi. Too much air? This how it was set when I bought the...

Anyone have any input on Turbo Nozzles? Pro Car Wash Equipment, who makes my Navigator (touchless), recommend them as a nice upgrade to the machine. Considering pulling the trigger and buying 21 of them. Thanks Forum!

Hey guys, I just bought my first self serve car wash and we love the industry. I've silently sat and watch and learned a lot from this forum. For that, I thank you. I'm stumped with an issue on my vendmaster. It will only take $2.00 in cash or only take $2.00 in coins. It won't take anything...
