Multi use bay soap

[Tall City Carwash]

I recently bought several SS locations. The previous owner had replumbed the hp soap and the foam brush to use the same soap holding tank. Are there any single soap products that would work for both end uses?

Thanks to Randy I can tell you with confidence the JBS Fonic works great in that role.

in warm months i use a mix of simoniz correct powder and simonz foam additive with hot water. i mix by hand with hot water and it's fast and easy. i'm happy with the show and cleaning power.

this has worked for my hp soap and foam brush for years.

You’ve got two great suggestions. I would just add that you want to make sure whatever you use has the proper lubricity for the brush end of the product.

I appreciate simplicity, but If I were you I'd reconsider undoing this and going back to separate tanks. It's doubtful that one product can be tweaked to peak performance without affecting the performance of the other. This is assuming you have a typical setup that's common in the industry for the last 40 years. In addition, We're in show business and offering different colors and scents improves the customer experience and will likely extend wash time more than enough to offset the small extra expense of the individual products. Chemicals are a relatively small percentage of expenses

I use JBS Fonic wash for both my High Pressure soap and for my Foam brush. I do mix them in separate tanks with a little bit of Simoniz Correct added at the Hydrominder to give the product a little more kick. I use Simoniz Correct as our Presoak.

Thank you for the advice.
We are going back to separate tanks as we reload these locations.
