    Favorite SS In-bay upgrades

    Triple foam - my customers wear it out and they need to rinse it. I got rid of the triple foam system and just run one color of good quality foam polish. Less headache. Tire Brush - my customers wear it out and they need to rinse it. Dryer - only have in one of four bays and customers wait for...

    The Nayax problems and info sticky.

    Have been using NAYAX on my SS bays for about 6/7 years now. Mostly good and they have been good to work with from the tech support side. One tech in particular has helped me a lot and I'd be happy to share their contact info if you message me directly. I have mine set to count up mode using...

    Presoak on triple foam gun

    G57 flojet...the cheapest model and 3/8 poly line. I went to dema mixrites for my chemicals a few years ago and don’t push chemical through the flojet (this is why I buy the cheapest flojet). I push water through the flojets, which has prolonged the life of the flojets.

    NAYAX and ePort for Unitec Wash Select II (Self Service Bays coming soon)

    I am using John’s board and there are about 35 to 40 in use. It works well for me. There is a setting that can be changed on the NAYAX side to turn off the pre-authorization issue that is described. I’ve got some directions for how to change the setting. I’ve personally not changed that...

    The Nayax problems and info sticky.

    I've been using NAYAX AND USAEPORT IN MY SS BAYS. The issue of not being able to end a count up transaction has been a problem for a while/ . I thought that I had narrowed the cause of the problem down to the customer leaving the card in the reader after authorization. I'm now not sure that...

    Presoak on triple foam gun

    I like the way that 2Biz thinks about chemical costs. I haven't looked at it that way, but will in the future. I use Super Wash pre-soak that is sold by kleen-rite in powder form. https://.www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-6690-kleen-rite-super-wash-50-pound.aspx. 50 lbs costs $73 and makes 55...

    Presoak on triple foam gun

    I moved my pre-soak and bugoff to the tripple foam gun at the suggestion of 2Biz. One of the best things that I've done. The customers like it because it is coming out of the gun by the time that the customer picks it up. There is some overlap between the products for me because I have Bugoff...

    Melted wire/contactor from electric motor

    Is the problem fixed now that you put in a new contactor? I had a similar problem a couple of years ago and the underlying cause turned out to not be electrical. I had the pump fed with city water and PSI was too much for the pump and motor, so the overload kept tripping. I changed that pump...

    Anyone ever bought or have experience w/ Hand CarWash?

    I tried it and found it difficult to move cars through at a reasonable pace. It was also difficult to set prices. Some cars were in decent shape and some were a mess. Some cars you just can't make look better. I stopped because dealing with the customers was more of a pain than normal. A...

    NAYAX and ePort for Unitec Wash Select II (Self Service Bays coming soon)

    I'll be glad to share what I've learned. The basic problem that John's circuit board solves is that the Wash Select II operates/communicates using electronic pulses while the NAYAX and ePort operate/communicate with the Multi Drop Bus (MDB) communication protocol. John's board translates...

    NAYAX and ePort for Unitec Wash Select II (Self Service Bays coming soon)

    Sorry about the broken links. I updated the videos and posted them at: We are still working on this. The board that works with the Wash Select II is working great. We found an issue with the board not resetting itself after a cash transaction and John has fixed that with version 7...

    I want to hear your stories

    I'm friends with two brothers who have done pretty well at creating passive income mainly through building and leasing commercial real estate. I've always been impressed with what my friends have accomplished with commercial real estate and the passive income that it brings them. I've worked...

    Wash Select II Multi-Coin Acceptor recomendations

    I think that the IDX X-12 is the multi-coin acceptor for the WS. https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-59490-idx-x12-coin-acceptor-insert-for-wash-select-ii-insert-only.aspx is in my WS and accepts quarters, dollar coins and tokens.

    Considering upgrade to accept credit cards....Need Input

    Some thoughts. If you do add new meter boxes consider going with additional options on the meter box door. Even if your wash isn't wired for additional options it won't cost much more and will allow you to expand your options in the future. I switched my doors out from push button to rotary...

    NAYAX and ePort for Unitec Wash Select II (Self Service Bays coming soon)

    I spoke with John about the ACW4 and ACW5 and he is willing to work on it. I'm hoping to get feedback on what is the greatest need from the community/other operators. I suggested to John that the most pressing need for operators is to simply be able to accept credit card payment in a simple...
