Get rid of gravity feed hp soap and wax

[OurTown]

Our pumps are plumbed where gravity fed water comes in on the left side inlet and our chemical solutions come in on the right side inlet after passing through a solenoid. I wonder how this affects the dilution as the pump pulls both solution from both inlets and how i might get a stronger solution without changing the tip on the hydrominder. current hose size for the water inlet is 1/2in and hose size for chemical solution is 1/4in. TECHNICALLY CAT PUMPS RECOMMENDS A HOSE SIZE HIGHER ON THE INLET PORT AND THEY RECOMENNED NO HARD PIPING. However my question remains if enlarging my hose size is the best move to increase chemical strength and show for the hp soap and wax without changing the tip size. I'm already diluted so high that the foam brush stains my walls just to get the foaming action that i like.

Why not go up a Hydrominder tip size on the HP soap? Do you check your water hardness on a regular basis (like every day)? If your water is hard, that could be why you have to run such a rich foam brush mixture.

We have KR pumps in one location that use the same diameter hoses to the pump for wax and soap. We can control our dilution with the hydrominder tips. For brush we have AirLogic systems for all LP functions. Again the hydrominder tips work but we experimented with various product and air settings to get the look we wanted inside the bays. In general product should be set to twice the air setting. We have everything set very rich for a good show.

no not on a regular basis. We just don't see any spotting after rinse, and when we've tested in the past it was so low we couldn't justify purchasing a spot free system.
