Just curious how many of you out there pay sales tax on your soap and sales tax on a wash. Basically your inputs and the resulting wash are double taxed. I know here in Iowa we are, and car dealers are not. Many have an automatic wash on site, and yet are not held to the same rules. It comes...

How many times have you had this happen? Customer puts $$ in vac...vac turns on...they fail to see the giant neon arrow pointing to the hose they should use and pick up the wrong one (dual side vac). Sooo they stomp up to the front of the wash and tell me my vac "ripped them off". I can almost...

I don't know if this goes in this area....but here goes. I have been unable to close a batch on my WSII since the 3rd...I know that there is one particular charge that is holding up the works. I had this once before...plugged the computer into the modem and eventually got that charge out of...

I recieved a call this morning...the woman was very nice about things. She explained that she washed and the door came down on her car. It shot back up immediately but did leave some marks, and maybe a dent. I say to stop by and we will see what needs to be done. I check my video...

I too have entered into a battle with the modem gods. My first went bad not 2 weeks after install. They sent me another very quickley and it didn't make it a week. Keep in mind that I still have the first one in my posession...after placing 2 calls and not getting any return informaion. I knew...

Anyone tried this stuff? Another deal where you get a gallon and mix it with four gallons to make your "concentrate". You then mix it further through your choice of tip on its way out. I think somebody calls it a "hyper-pack".... A.J.

Just finishing the remodel and addition on two of my auto bays. I am switching to air operated doors. My question is this....they suggest using copper for my air lines and then switch to 3/8 poly tube just before the operator...why can't I use high pressure air hose instead? It will have all the...

One of the big car dealers in town is going to try his hand at car washing...again. Name on the machine was Nitto Denko....It seemed like I had seen this machine before. Maybe its a rebrand? Didn't see the model name because the space where it would be didn't have a panel in it yet. If he runs...

Has anyone seen this machine in action? If you have I would love to hear opinions...I checked out the website after seeing an ad...seemed the design was simple and looked like it would clean well. Maybe I am wrong...any help would be appreciated.
