jshepard I have some experience with them. Great unit. Easy to maintain and will blow a Vector, G5 or Washworld out of the water. As with any touchless you need good soap.

What are IBA friction washes selling for with or without install? Would you go with a regular gantry (example: Mark7) or an overhead gantry (ex: D&S, Belanger)?

jshepard Was at an economic development meeting/dinner last week. The speaker was a nationally recognized economist from NC State Univer. He said that crude would be going back up drastically the later part of 09 to 2010 (1st - 2nd Qt). This would happen on the heals of the economy coming out...

jshepard My reply was based on the intial post. If you pay 5 x $100,000 plus facilities you are going bankrupt. Did your restuarant sale include bldg/land? As I stated you have to look at the upsides, downsides, everyside. Not every deal is the same. I have seen (only) a couple deals that were...

How does that broker make his money? Commissions! All you have to do is "do the math". You are in this thing to make money, not work for free. The business market is just like the housing market, it is and has been overinflated with its prices. The market is tring to purge and adjust, if the...

We might need to take the white one or we could get taxed, that is if the Obama and the demmys gets in. WOW this will probably start something, sorry kevmcr.

jshepard I dont know about a f/serve carwash, but as general rule, I would not pay more than a 1.5-2.5 multiplier. Every deal is different and you have to look at the complete package. The days of 4-8 multipliers, I think are history. Alot of businesses purchased like that over the years that I...

Thanks for the info. How do you mix, (example: 1/40lb box to a 55 gal drum) then you inject? Email me when you get your cost per car figured out, if you wouldnt mind. Thanks again & God Bless!

Has any one tried a powder presoak from CSI that you mix 1 container in a drum then inject? If so how much is it per container? How well does it work? What is the dilution ratio?I heard something about it today. If it does not work well then who has a good powder or super concentrated liquid to...

Wow Now that is a wash! The only thing you forgot is the internal bill printer & paper to duplicate every bill ($5,10 or 20s) that the cashier takes in so that you can double your income and the kitchen sink. On a serious note; Who & why are the best? What options...

With all the different IBAs out there (T/Less & Fric), from an experienced operators prespective: 1) What are the qualities, and requirements for the best possible IBA touchless & friction from an experienced operators stand point? 2) Who has the best IBA (T/Less & Fric)? 3) What options are...

jshepard The best value I have seen is the XStream. Good Price, dual arm cleaning, very easy to work on, more standard options and will out clean any PDQ, Washworld, Ryko or Belanger that I have washed at. I also would not like having a gun to my head like I have heard that some PDQ...

Does anyone know how much the Superior Side Trac sells for new or used? Do they still make them?

jshepard If the PH is 12.5 there is no bacteria alive in it. Being in the chem business we see this all the time. IF the product is good, bad or OK; it is still a common product that is being marketed by someone as the new hot cleaner and it is not. I ask again how much is 5 gals?

jshepard Based on the MSDS displayed above this is a common product for most chem companies no matter how it is formulated. Again how much did you pay for the pails each?

jshepard Thats great, I pray that everything works out well for you and you make the competition's mouth water. Contact me by email or phone (252-521-4291) and let me know how things progress. Is this a new site or a replacement. If replacement what unit was installed before.

jshepard I have looked at alot of equipment and I have first hand experience with the XStream. I can honestly say that it will out clean a G5 hands down and a Vector. Coming from a automated truckwash back ground, I look for different things in a piece of equipment than most people. Cleaning...
