    Tunnel Wash Competition

    I operate two long-bay petit car washes, each located about a mile from the new express tunnel car wash that recently opened in our area. I’m reaching out to ask if you could share your experience with me. I understand you’ve operated a touch-free automatic car wash in a competitive...

    Hamilton Goldline IDTECH cc retrofit

    We have been trying to figure out the best way to add memberships to our Goldlines. We run 2 touchless Petit locations. Seems like any system you purchase has their own set of problems. Any help would be appreciated. Are you having a lot of trouble with the green button or are your customers...

    High pressure hose failure in energy chain

    We had the same problem at our car wash. We found by raising the water level in the tank that feeds the pump eliminated the pulsation curing our hose problem.

    Competing With Express Tunnel Wash

    Are you getting a lower credit card processing rate on the Commander compared to the Goldline?

    Competing With Express Tunnel Wash

    Thank you for the great information. We have a Goldline pay station at each location. Do you think it is necessary to install the commanders or would a scanner mounted on the Goldline with the app be sufficient for the loyalty program?

    New chemistry that I almost passed on - then WOW
