    If I do this the machines would be in different locations.

    Petit automatic

    One time I was at an old wash where an automatic used to be. The old coin acceptor was still there but not connected to anything. The owner said let’s just pull that old coin box. It was full of quarters.

    Petit automatic

    Do appreciate the offer. Going to buy two run down washes and put them there. At least that’s the plan. Couldn’t stand not having anything to do.

    Petit automatic

    Seriously thinking of getting two of these. Wash cycle under two minutes. Even allowing for people driving through slow, that will still get you 18 to 24 cars per hour. At $15 a car the numbers add up quick.

    Petit automatic

    Was hoping to see more postings on this machine. The performance numbers seem unreal. And it puts on a light show at night.

    Water weeping from guns

    If it’s that old it’s more likely the little rubber puck on the solenoid stems are worn. Either replace part or the solenoid.

    Another strange Cryptopay issue

    Wish I had a dollar for every time a vendor said gosh, never seen that before. Try swapping one piece at a time with another bay and write down what you did.

    What Kind of electrical cable to re-wire bay coin boxes ?

    You can add a shock sensor easily and cheaply. That way if someone starts beating on it a siren will go off. Remember one guy that said he was going to add teargas in the ceiling if the shock sensor went off.

    CTA in your touchless IBA

    Not sure you read my post correctly. I adjusted the dwell time till I got clean wheels. Should have mentioned that on the Istobal you can order it with wheel brushes or HP spray. The brushes clean well but stick out a foot on either side. That makes it hard for duallys. And someone will hit...

    New Touch Free Car Wash Equipment

    ANY touch free wash will only clean as well as the chemicals in it. They need to be quality and diluted correctly.

    Have it on a wash I owned, an Istobal. You can program it to apply just on wheels or the whole rocker panel. Hit it then with high pressure rinse and the wheels came out sparkling. Only time it didn’t work well was if the car had it on for a very long time.

    Land Rover

    Appreciate the advice but it’s just a personal thing. Some like blonds, some don’t. This comes with Ann outstanding warranty. Too good to pass up and loaded with options.

    Land Rover

    Had my heart set on one of these. Just looked cool and rugged. For the heck of it I looked up reviews on Consumer Reports. Holy mother of God. Most all were one star. Nothing good about it. So I’m going down to my local Jeep dealer and do a trade. The new ones are nice, loaded with options, and...

    Just how stupid is Biden

    Latest news is he wants to increase the ethanol in auto gas to 15%. Here are a couple of facts that show how wrong this. Ethanol has 85% of the energy of gasoline. Growing the corn to make it is a net energy loss. Since corn is used is so many foods that drives cost up. This is a bone he’s...

    Might be a stupid idea...

    I would keep the pressure up(my bays are at 1600psi) and put in heavy duty two handed wands. No one answer to this. What works in Fargo won’t fly in south TX.

    Old car washer

    Sold my last wash recently. Made a tidy profit, thank you very much. Will concentrate on bringing old washes up to date and have a good project close by. I’ll be the one in the lawn chair under the umbrella.

    What am I going to do?

    Good advice as usual. Will find something soon or my wife will shoot me. Rethinking my training her on handguns. Still hoping to hear from NASA. I think I can rebuild one off those turbo liquid oxygen pumps.
