Lets see your automatics

[traveler17]

This is a Mark Vii Combo Wash. One Soft Wash on site and this unit. The machines have been great and clean extremely well. Had a veteran tunnel operator come by and told me it washed as good as his site which was nice feedback. Biggest drawback for me is I don’t like guide rails. I like the open floor and no tracks.

Looks really nice!! We're going to be putting in a razor in late summer/fall this year. The blue markers on the floor - did those come with the machine? They look like they are held to the floor with bolts? If so what kind of bolts?

Thanks Coach. 1 year in and still no issues. We're washing 4 door duallys with 8' beds too!

I’m a big fan too. Saw 2 or 3 and would like one someday in one of my ss bays.

Traveler17, I used these parking bumpers instead of the factory guide rails for years. I liked them much better than the factory rails. This picture is from one of my washes that I sold two years ago. I owned the wash for two years before selling to Dakota Hoskins. I think in those two years I had one service call for a minor issue, and a bad e-stop switch that I fixed myself. It was the best piece of equipment that I had ever owned, replacing the worst piece, a Wesumat.

Wow I sincerely appreciate this picture!!! The small guides up front are really annoying. Did you run the parking bumpers all the way to the exit or keep it 1/4 of the way down like the entrance? Never any issues?
I was really skeptical w these machines but right now I couldn’t be happier. They do a great job and so far seems like a work horse.

I bet the tires slide down those easily instead of climbing on top

I’m hoping that’s the case. I like the idea.

And it wont scratch any wheels. I may try this out.

Definitely better than the factory guide rails. I used three 6' bumpers on each side and left 6" between the ends, mounting the first one at about the wheel scrubber. I angled the one closest to the entrance as far as the gantry traveling would allow. I got the idea from a forum member about 10 or so years ago.

Yesterday was the first day for the new machine
Tear out and install in 4 days.

That brick around the entry and the ceiling in the bay both look like crap. Next time the old man is around give him a bucket and scrub brush and put his ass to work.
