    Kleen Rite phones down?

    I've been trying to call Kleen Rite all day about an order I placed yesterday and every time it says "your call can not be completed at this time". Does anyone know if their phones are down, or another good way to contact them?

    In-Bay Heaters

    I have multiple sets of both Airlift panel doors and vinyl roll up doors. Any doors I buy moving forward will electric vinyl roll up. Our air operated doors are a constant maintenance issue throughout the winter, always an air leak somewhere, always replacing rollers, etc. There are so many more...

    In-Bay Heaters

    I've never really considered ducting a furnace into the bay. I love the idea of having all the components inside the equipment room in a controlled environment where aren't subject to the harsh conditions of the bay.

    In-Bay Heaters

    I'm planning on replacing a few radiant tube style heaters in my autos soon. Spoke with American Garage Door supply a few days ago and I was pretty impressed with our initial conversation. Anyone have experience dealing with them? Good, Bad? Also, do you have another company you'd recommend...

    Cryptopay IQ worldpay portal is pi**ing me off

    sparkey, I recently had a similar experience. First off it drives me insane that they require you to answer multiple security question for every login. If you ever get locked out (which is easy to do) it takes forever to get customer service on the line. Then after finally getting to customer...

    Is Ultimate-Supplies Inc out of business or closed?

    Explains why they refused to reorder the fan for us, I.B.! Anyone have another source for parts on their equipment? I’m sure when fall arrives many of us will be in need of parts for thier doors and heaters.

    IMEG vrs Meg

    I also was curious as to the difference between the two and had the opportunity to speak to a couple guys from spraying systems last year at the Vegas show. They used the analogy of hitting something with a baseball bat (meg) versus hitting something with a samurai sword (Imeg). I have used both...

    Advice on marketing new Friction wash, that is attended 6x/week

    We have done a radio remote several times with great success. Radio station advertises it the week leading up and they come the day of and spend a half day broadcasting live from the wash. We usually couple that with a $5 for any wash deal to help give customers value and a reason to show up...

    How well do Crypto pay swipers work in a very dirty/wet environment

    I’m also in a very rural area where off road vehicles are the norm, especially this time of year. Some of my meter boxes are unfortunately placed in the center of the bay where they receive a lot of punishment from overspray. Crypto readers on those bays tend to fare just as well as the ones on...

    Imeg vs meg nozzles for touchless wash?

    I ordered mine from Dultmeier, part # SS14IMEG1504VA for the 1504 tips. There are a few other tips on a laser ( a 2504 & 4004 I believe) that you would need also, but you can easily find them through dultmeier. They are a little more expensive, but I think its worth it. Water Guy, I've only...

    Imeg vs meg nozzles for touchless wash?

    You may also look into getting Imeg nozzles with a vein. I was also a little disappointed with the lack of punch from my 360 and talked to some guys at Spraying Systems about it. They suggested I try getting nozzles with the vein and said those would fit my application (a laser 360 spray arch)...

    Laserwash 360 max cars per day?

    As Jeff stated, water dripping from the bridge is one reason. I'm also in a rural area and we wash many pickup trucks. Any pickup truck with a bed liner tends to trap water in the bed, and also traps soap, tri foam, etc. It just simply can't drain out as fast as we're putting it in there during...

    How many guys have 2 IBA's?

    I have a site with a Mark 7 touchless and a Ryko softgloss maxx next to each other. In 2017 the Ryko friction washed almost 50% more cars than the Mark 7 touchless. Part of that could be that the friction was installed in late 2016 and the touchless is 13 years old, its also the only friction...

    Hogs Hair Foam Brush

    I've always used the Universal foamy hogs hair brushes mainly because of price ($43.31 thru KR). But for some reason it doesn't seem like they are lasting as long as they used to. Have you guys had that much better luck with the comparable Erie brush to justify the higher price...

    Mosmatic air booms for vacs

    Has anyone tried the mosmatic free standing air boom systems for single vacs? They seem like they would provide a much-improved customer experience at vac islands. I’ve always hated the idea of my vac customers having to drag the hose through their vehicle after the previous customer has left it...
