    1 treadle and 1 pressure plate

    We removed the damaged treadle today and there is a depression in the concrete. I need to make it smooth before installing the pressure pad. What is the best product to use? I'm assuming that this is "wear" in the concrete so it needs to be pretty tough. Thanks

    New to Wash Business Need Advice

    I think what Sequoia is trying to say is that some people will tear up a $1500 bay meter to get the $11 that is in it. They tore up one of mine and it only had .25 in it.

    Yes I'm familiar with the math, that's why I'm wondering if anyone has tried it.

    Shield X

    I currently use Element Shield which is also an outstanding product. The Shield X is quite a bit less money though.

    Shield X

    Has anybody tried KR's Shield X? The price looks pretty good if it works like Element Shield or Rainx.

    1 treadle and 1 pressure plate

    Several years ago when I was having trouble with my treadle I bought a pressure plate. It turned out to be easier to fix the treadle than I thought so I never used the plate. Now 1 of my treadle's seems to be bent so I want to use the plate. Is there any reason I can't have a treadle on 1 side...

    Carwash In Walmart Parking Lot

    I would consider that outstanding! 68 cars per day rain or shine. I would love that at my wash.

    Vac motor died. Can it be rebuilt?

    I splurged for the extra $8 on the lamb motors on Randy's reccomendation. Testing them side by side is a great idea but I'm so damn forgetful that by the time 1 wears out I won't remember what the test was! I also bought new brushes for all of the old gs motors I have already.

    Which motor do you guys prefer? I have not needed one in quite some time but I need to order a couple. The KR is cheaper but is it any good? Thanks

    Taming a Hummingbird

    I have held a hummingbird in my hand a couple of times. We feed them at the house and occaisionally one will fly into the garage. They never will fly out the door since they only fly up. They get stuck trying to fly through the roof until they are tired enough for me to catch them in the fishing...

    backup switches

    Thanks. I ordered the hose today and will hopefully have it by the weekend. My backup light came on DURING a wash the other day. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen the video.

    backup switches

    I went for several years and never had to replace my backup switch and now I have had to change it every couple of months. Am I buying crappy switches or is there likely something else wrong? KR only has 2 kinds that I saw and I've tried them both. Are there better air switches out there? I have...

    Prewash options

    Other people are getting clean cars with that machine. With the right chemical setup you should be able to also. I'm a friction guy but I'm certain that a good chemical guy could change your life.

    Prewash options

    You may want to take a look at what you are using during the wash. Maybe if you used better chemical in there you wouldn't need prewash or so much labor. What equipment do you have and what are you using for chemicals?

    220 air compressor

    Great! I just bought a Lowe's compressor today. I bought the best one they had and my plan is to plumb it into my Curtis (new pump should be here tomorrow). That way I will have 140 gallons of air storage and 2 compressors in case 1 goes out. I hope to never have another air issue again!
