    I hope we're getting an "after" shot.

    What was your worst customer?

    When I first started in this business, I tried to keep floormats for about a month. Not one single person ever came back looking for them. If they leave them hanging in the bay, I watch until anyone who could have left them has gone, then I hang them on the fence by the dumpster.

    30 minutes for 6$ @SS

    I know someone who does this by giving a bunch of bonus time when they reach $5. He put a detector plate in the bay floor so if the car moves the time clears. He tried it because the wash was practically dead all day, and it's busy now.

    Fleck Carbon Filter won't stop running water

    If the main drive motor is bad, it's not hard to replace. No need to replace the whole head, especially when the only person recommending it is wanting to sell you one.

    LED 7 Randomly Counting Up

    It can't be the coin acceptor. If it goes bad with a closed coin signal, the timer will read "COIN." Check the CC wire and make sure it's not touching voltage. Make sure the plug isn't melted or has something in it bridging the pins.

    Fleck Carbon Filter won't stop running water

    Turn the dial in the center around where the small arrow marker on it (Currently ay 9 o'clock) is pointing to the "Time of day" arrow. You should feel a more solid click at that point where the main switch drops into the home position. You can swing the timer door open to see and confirm this...

    Overload Relays Tripping

    IIRC your booms have the bolt holes bent and bolted to the side purlins, so it'll be difficult to "home" the booms where they will swing out of the path like they should, but when they are properly set up you shouldn't have the problems you're having with wands getting broken.

    KR Part #

    Or just look at the wires under the cover. Orange is 24V, blue is 120V. Yours is on the low-pressure spot free, so it's 24V AC.

    Considering Card Only Self Serve Car Wash

    There are plenty of people who will swap your quarters for cash. I've run into three people at my bank who say they could use mine instead of deposit them.

    Overload Relays Tripping

    If your pressure isn't excessively high, it's very likely the heat. Keeping a fan blowing on the motors will help. I seriously doubt it's the wands or anything else on that end. The flex wands bent over won't cause a restriction because the pressure is more than enough to expand the hose, and...

    Erie/Hog Hair Brushes - Customers abusing brush

    Yeah, and it's stitched tightly together. Maybe if there was more material and bound inside the backing to give it more flex, but even that will only clean a flat surface. Good luck getting around mirrors or license plates.

    Erie/Hog Hair Brushes - Customers abusing brush

    It's completely useless. Imagine taking a piece of cardboard 10" wide and and accordion folding it three times and trying to scrub your paint with the folded edges. I have no idea what it's intended for, but you can't use it on a car.

    Erie/Hog Hair Brushes - Customers abusing brush

    I tried the cloth foam brush. It's the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

    That's pretty obvious after reading his older posts.

    I let my girlfriend replace vac door gaskets

    I can hardly stop her from handling the bills, and I don't want her to because she messes up sorting or misplaces my notes.

    What was your worst customer?

    Had the same happen just once, except it was raw shrimp, probably bait shrimp. It took two pool chlorine tablets that I chopped up into powder to kill the stink.
