how is foam a useless pass?Maybe make the useless foam pass another pass of PS and shoot it out of the foamers? I've heard of a few guys doing this and have been considering trying it
I’m sorry to hear that. I think you might get more responses and more advice if you start a brand new thread with this topic. Welcome to the forum and I wish you luck with your rebuild.My car wash has burnt to the ground, It used to be a Ryco 5 brush softgloss. Now I have to buy a new system. Any recommendation?

IMO, if you want to hire a service company to do most of your work buy PDQ. They have the reputation of using proprietary parts and they prefer to support their distributors. WashWorld seems to be more willing (I should say VERY willing) to take phone calls from anyone. I ordered a WW motor and gearbox and asked a friend with PDQ how the pricing compared. He was shocked at how affordable the parts were.I'm newer to the game, but is price the only issue why guys aren't talking about LW360plus as a good option?? I haven't operated other systems, but I'm open minded for when we purchase our next system.... I have had generally no issues with PDQ.

Eric, went back & re-read this. Great idea on the low ph acidic Glow Foam. I can't find that ina Power Concentrate foam though...JBS makes a loPh triple foam detergent (wx-300) as well a triple foam hiph detergent (PC-260) that you could use in place of polish or conditioner. I use the PC-260 as my SS foam brush. looks and smells great. I don't know the Ph of that product or if it has any cleaning ability at all. It may be mostly colorant and foam agent.
I agree with Waxman about doing a HP pass after the presoak passes. If you put on a lush full coverage triple foam I would think it would "cushion" the impact of the HP pass.
Also, lose that 10 second dwell if you are doing this with the Razor. IMO, the chemical has enough time to dwell when the arm is applying chemical to the rest of the car especially if you decide to apply a tri-foam pass.
