    Lost License Plates

    If you trash them, I’d cut them up so they can’t be used

    Is this normal?

    How often are you on site? Maybe pass out some free wash tokens/codes to your self serve customers. It’s a good way to target people who are already loyal to your business. It’s also nice just to talk it up when you are there and ask people who have not washed yet if they would be...

    Laser 360+ Bridge Over current fault

    If the high pressure causes your bridge to become un-perpendicular, then it sounds like there still must be some “slop” or spacing somewhere for that to happen. It sounds like your manual bridge movement by pushing it back and forth doesn’t take in account the machine being under stress by the...

    Pretty tough question to answer

    The velvet touch is a conveyorized system. Is the conveyor still installed and functioning?

    BBB Contacted me over Wash Club Memberships

    She obviously could read well enough to know she could come back 7 times without paying.

    Cell phone usage in self serve bay.

    Maybe a nice non staining red dye mixed in!

    BBB Contacted me over Wash Club Memberships

    I don’t offer membership plans but I can totally see that happening. I’d be surprised if it wasn’t a common occurrence. A lot of places offer the first month at a discount and I’m sure when the second month bumps up to the regular price some people think they are getting scammed. Its just...

    Am I crazy ?

    Is it alright to apply it to a hot wheel in the summer?

    blastoff touchless car wash history?

    And even with that, there may not have been an x stream history that long ago. The proprietor has most likely been in the industry that long, but not necessarily manufacturing these machines for that long.

    Am I crazy ?

    Part of it might be the fact that they are both inverted L machines on an overhead bridge. The Razor is light years ahead of your 4000, but on the surface they mechanically look very similar, and you might be subconsciously thinking you need something different looking for $400k. A gantry...

    Best Offboard dryers

    Belanger is good, but pricey as stated before. But there a lot of them if you keep an eye on car wash consignment.

    I just purchased property to build a Touch free 3 bay car wash in north dallas area.

    Yes - that makes sense for an in-bay express with chemical, rinse, sealer etc. arches all off board. A Petit should not need that though.

    A bay with 75 feet should have a conveyor. It’s a waste of space to put an IBA in that size bay. The only time I have ever seen an IBA in a bay that long was when someone took out an underperforming conveyor wash and converted it to and IBA.
