I say almost because I sold my wash today but I agreed to stay on to help the new owner learn how to run it. I told them I would assist on "as available" basis....if I am available I will help however I can for the next 12 months. It has been a fun ride most of the time but I am getting a bit...

I thought I remembered seeing a thread awhile back about this but now I can't seem to find it. I have a WSII that the top led digital display is acting up. I need to replace it. Is there a place to find those relatively inexpensively?

I finally got around to trying a powdered presoak. I am using Kleenrite Inbay Turbo Powder. It seems to be doing the job just fine. I have a 120 gallon mixing tank with a pretty good size motor on it. What I have noticed is when it mixes it creates a lot of foam in the tank the foam seems to...

With all this cold weather we have been having when I have been able to be open and wash cars I have noticed that my presoak is not as hot as it needs to be. I have a hydrominder system that has a small holding tank for the presoak and it has a heating element in it and the water supply to the...

I thought I would post this here in case anyone else runs into this....I had noticed that when I logged onto the Forum some of the pictures did not load...you may have seen this for other things where you have a small x where the picture would be...you can click the x and get the option to...

I hope I am not breaking any rules here since there is another thread about the pros and cons of powdered soaps vs liquids but for my discussion on this topic I really have a question and hopefully some of you chemist out there can help me out. First I do not currently use powder. I am using...

Anyone using the extrutech wall panels in their self serve bays? They look nice and I think they will really brighten things up but I am wondering how you attach things to the wall like matt cleaners, gun holders, etc. I would imaging you bore all the way thru the panel and into the wall...

I had a cat 310 pump finally fail. Luckily I had a brand new one on the shelf. I replaced the pump and while I was at it changed all the fittings, hoses, and the bypass regulator. Got it all done, primed the pump and got it going and noticed the pressure gauge read 1250 psi. I went out to the...

I know there have been a few threads that talk about the inbay dryers .... has anyone had experience with different brands that can actually give feedback on differences between them and which they like best. I know D&S has their version of in bay dryer as does Air Shammee and a few...

I have a cat 310 pump that has been in service for a number of years. Yesterday I noticed the pressure gauge on the pump showed only 500 psi when the handle was pressed. I turned the regulator a few turns to the right and the pressue did not increase however when the customer releasesd the...

Well I finally received my control unit and swipers. Will get 4 swipers installed as soon as I can get all the holes drilled in my stainless doors so they can be mounted...whew.....at the rate I am going that should be in about two more weeks....LOL. My questions are...do any of you use the...

just saw this posted on MSN web page http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/50476547/ns/local_news-nashville_tn/

The top display on my Wash Select II is not displaying correctly. Is there another source for these rather than unitec? They quote a recommended price of $184 for one of those suckers....I might just have to put a piece of tape over it that has "please select wash and do you want a receipt" LOL:D

Well, don't know if this is going to look like I hope but maybe it will work. Thoughts about this for a sign/decal for my self serve bays. It will be done professionally but what do you think ... does this come across to the customer ok? Trying to break out of the $1 for 3min 20 sec pricing...

Well, a few days have passed since the major flood peaked here in Tennessee. Water is still high in some areas but has dropped significantly. Car washes around the Nashville area have been put on notice to close or you will be closed because one water plant is down and the other is barely...

I like the new website format but is anyone else having issues with the colors? I can't read the post as it looks like it is blue background with blue text. Is this something we can change or is it the site itself?

Anybody here have the Rugged CCTV Vertex DVR? Do you have any of the outputs set to do things like dispense tokens from the changer, arm the autocashier for a wash, turn on blowdowns, etc? The manual is very slim on how to configure these sorts of things....sounds like the outputs are simply...

Guess I am not the only person that has nothing else to do at 4am....I know it isn't 4AM everywhere and actually right now it is closer to 5AM but I have been up since 4....I just noticed on the forum page that there are 13 different folks viewing the pages. What the heck...I know today is a...

OK....what does this mean? I don't have my manual handy and it doesn't sound good but I have gotten this page 6 times in the last 10 minutes. Don't have remote cameras at this site and it is 30 miles away...don't want to have to go unless I have to........

I haven't seen a lot of post about air shammees in the self serve bays. Do a lot of operaters use them? If so are you happy with the results? Do they get enough use to warrant installing them or do they just take up space most of the time? Thinking of putting them in my 6 bay but before I go...
