Do any of you have token dispensers for your automatic(s) for the Wash Select 2s. Debating on offering this for In bay users to offer a token w wash. I think I saw some Options for this but wanted to hear some feedback on the changeover. Thanks in advance!!!

Hey I’ve recently finished up putting CP in the bays at one site. Worked fine til this morning. Employee went by this morning and said customer swiped card and and it counted the money up shy one quarter of start time then says “coin “. These are wired to LED 7s. All 4 bays programmed the...

I was wondering if any of you that have fleet accounts give discounts and if so how much. I had the county call where one site is and they have 85 trucks/cars in the fleet. Thank you for the feedback!!

Last month I sent 10 1/4” fluid control check valves back to KR because every one of them would not work properly. I have never encountered this. I got them back 2 days ago replaced 7. They were working fine yesterday when I left. This morning when I got there to test 4 of the 7 were not...

I have a vector at a site that’s still a workhorse but during the winter I have yet to find anything to keep the triple foam from freezing up. It’s using pulsatron pumps for each color. I run winter formula mixes wide open and it still freezes I’m assuming because to much water is mixed in...

So I have read past discussions on this site about disclaimer signs and I’m curious, particularly for soft touch washes. Do any of you guys or gals have any disclaimer signs saying “we are not responsible for any damages due to wide variety of vehicles” or basically “enter at your own risk”...

I just purchased the hog king foam brushes for both sites and put them on one site today. Wanted to try something new. My question for you guys/gals that have used these or still using them do you see these things shedding at all? One of the four I put on today was shedding like a dog...

My triple foam option intermittently in bay 3 stays energized and running “all 3 colors and air” after selecting another option. I was hoping it’s just trash but with everything running like this I’m guessing it’s something electrical. Could it be the rotary switch or am I looking at a...

I added 2 cryptotaps to 2 different paystatations on the same site. Working great for a week then today on both machines I had 2 different calls stating they bought the bottom wash ($8) and were charged after tapping and the wash never started. I confirmed the washes not starting from...

You guys have any suggestions on what to clean the hard film off the lens of the photo eyes. I’ve always used rubbing alcohol but the new spot has build up on them bad. Thanks for the suggestions!!

So like probably everyone here I’ve used the Foam Brush straight hose which in my cases like to kink. The coil fb hose gets in knots sometimes and not a fan of it slapping the car as customers brush. Anyone ever use hp hose for foam brush??

So worked on keeping air lines dry and didn’t solve my issue at one location. When the foam brush option turns on it pumps great for a minute then starts slowing down like it’s running out of gas, stops pumping completely then will either go back to pumping after a minute or I have to Adjust...

Hey fellas the wash I currently purchased has an issue with water flowing through this pump “I was told” through the RO System and into the spot free tank. It’s a continuous flow. Head tech for mark vii said the pvc part next to the shutoff valve is a check valve that’s causing this. These...

So the 3 WSII’s I run have coinco validators in them and no problems but I want to switch to mars to offer coupons. Can anyone advise me on which model mars are typically used in these paystations? Will I need a conversion kit? Thanks for the input

This was a message PMd to me yesterday by (Patrick Coder) . Anyone know him??? “Hi, Happy New Year. I am a programmer looking to get into making software to help existing car wash businesses. I want to see if I can build a simple software that can help your back office -- for example, reduce...

The new location I just required has the compressor hardwired to the breaker box. I’ve had a couple locations in the past and haven’t seen this. Question is this a normal setup for most or some of you guys? Any pros or cons to this? Change it up or let it ride? thanks for the feedback

I’m about to purchase another wash (#2) and was curious if most of you multiple SS operators see the same ballpark percentage of your gross at each location. I understand there’s differences in every property. Single site operators chime in also. My wash now is running 40% of my sales plus...
