I own a 4 bay SS car wash in Petersburg VA that is about 1/10 of a mile from a small bridge that crosses a river. VDOT just put up a sign saying the bridge/road in front of my Wash will be closed for the next 7 months! Has anyone else had any experience with this or something similar? There...

Also, have you ever attempted to reuse the wires and just resolder them to the new button?

Thank you for the information. CryptoPay said they will not repair any swiper with a serial number less than 16,000. Did you order the buttons through Digikey? Also, are the red lighted buttons the exact same just a different color?

Hello. We have around 60 CryptoPay swipers in count up mode at 6 SS locations. The swipers are anywhere from 4 to 5 years old and several buttons have started to go bad, is anyone else having this issue? Has anyone attempted to replace the button? CryptoPay tech support basically said we are on...

Anybody have any experience letting an outside vending company put drink machines on their lot? We don't want to stock or deal with the machines but just charge rent or a percentage of sales? Thanks.

We have similar issues with about 60-70 count up swipers in use both bays and vacs. The "STOP" sticker from the old rotary switch labels fits nicely on the swiper with a little but if cutting. We think it has helped with the problem.

Thank you for the reply. When did you install the equipment?

Looking to replace old 6 bay SS equipment with the D&S IQ direct drive varible speed controlled 310 pumps. Love the idea of doing away with low pressure system entirely. Anyone use this setup or something similar?

What timers do you use??

So in regards to vandalism, the police told us that to prosecute it criminally there must be intent. Which to them is the difference between someone spraying out wet paint out of their truck bed and somebody using a can of spray paint to graffiti on your walls. The guy who sprayed out the paint...

Wow. Yes that is a similar response to what we get. One locality where we have three locations, Henrico County, did a case study on this issue. They basically told us that if we valued our property, we need to hire a full-time attendant and or open and close the car wash daily.

We are having a hard time getting registrant information from the police with a license plate. Had a guy yesterday spray out a 5 gallon bucket of wet paint and all of his painting supplies. We got a license plate and video of the guy clear as day, but the police won't give us his information...

Hello. Currently using around 60 Led 7 timers with count up CrypyoPay at 6 different SS locations. Bays and Vacs. Looking to possibly change to the LED 6 which can count up in money. Any one currently using the LED 6 and or retrofit from the LED 7? Thanks.

We have been buying the 4 and 1/2 inch Erie Hogs hair heads for about 20 years and lately have noticed they have not held up nearly as well. The bristles are starting to get twisted and knotted close to the bumper. I'm literally having to take a wide comb and brush out the knots or else they...

What kind of tile did you use? Industrial? What about grouting? How well has it held up over time? Do you have any pictures?? Thanks. Love the idea.

Looking to repaint my 4-bay self serve this spring. The walls are painted cinder block, and right now the color is white. However, I'm looking to repaint the walls a color that doesn't show as much dirt/grime but still looks decently bright and inviting especially at night. Also, for the vacuum...

Totally agree. The goal we figured is to get customers to realize that just because something is in their car does not mean they can throw it away at the carwash. Have you had any success or tried locking the trash can lids as well as making the hole around 10 in in diameter? We also hope they...

Hey Sparkey, My I am a self-serve car wash owner and manager of 6 locations in Richmond, VA. Would love to talk to you about getting rid/locking trash cans. If you could send your contact info to my email I would love to give you a call and chat. Thanks! Garat.shick1@gmail.com

Have you actually taken any footage to the police? If so, did they do anything about it?

Anyone have a problem with people throwing their house trash bags in their trash cans?? Just today we had 8 total bags over 6 locations. We go through the bags and find mail when we can and send them a letter telling them they are in violation of a misdemeanor. The letters might help a little...
