    Insurance going up $1000 for this bull$hit

    We had the same carrier on our cabin since the 70s. Power company turned off everyone's power when it was -17 below zero for maintenance. Pipes froze on hundreds of cabins. Filed one claim for 6k and were dropped the next year.

    Cryptopay - Out of compliance readers

    I would call the police and explain the situation to them about the charge and make them file a no trespass order. That way they can never come on your property again.

    Why is Kleen-Rite Shipping so much?

    One thing I think they could do is have their shipping department use the smallest possible box. Too many times I open a large box from them that is stuffed with paper in more than half the box. Shipping cost is determined by weight and box size.

    Paint Goldline Buttons???

    They probably have some UV damage. I think I would try to polish them with a rubbing compound and see if you could bring them back then spray them with clearcoat so they stay fresh looking longer.

    Rehab Pricing Questions

    If you are in Searcy Arkansas I would not want to compete with the established SS there. They are good operators from all I have seen. Going low on price sends the message that you are not worth what the competition is worth.

    Make sure the ceramic ball in the check valve is not stuck to the orings. Make sure inlet screen is not plugged.

    IBA floor rails.

    They should just bolt to the floor and have a series of rollers on bearings that will let the car move over when tire hits the guide rail.

    Help with Blue/White Pump

    Check valves on both sides of pump head have to be working for the blue white pumps to work. I don't use them anymore but when I did I found that if I used a John guest in line pushlock check valve on each side of the pump head in place of the regular check valve I had much better luck and they...

    IBA floor rails.

    I wonder if you could put some tunnel wash correlators in next to the rail so when people hit the guide rail it would easily slide the car into position.

    Wash Card

    I got a letter from a bank that I use to process credit cards for one IBA. I have been on their platform for years. They notified me that all CC card companies were raising their prices. I have always kept it PCI compliant but now there will be no fee for being out of PCI compliance, instead...

    Who’s installing Ceramic Coatings?

    Good review. CMX should be allowed to cure for 24 hours according to instructions and you can get it for just over $11 per bottle from Kleenrite. The turtle wax looks very good. You tube has several tests on line that vary in who comes out on top but I think any of these are real good.

    Wash Card

    This is why I kept the old wash card classic system. Everything is kept in house and I pay no fees to anyone when they use my wash cards.

    Temporary pumps

    I had one of my procon pumps that provides my tire cleaner and bug remover go bad after 16 years of operation. There are literally 100s of configurations for these procon pumps and no one stocked the pump I needed and found out they are a made to order only pump. 2 to 3 weeks just to build one...

    Who’s installing Ceramic Coatings?

    I had a customer stop by who just spent $1200 per vehicle for 3 of his vehicles. My work truck with the CMX finally started to show a little lack of beading like when it was first applied so I redid it last weekend. I always washed it without my Rain X or other wax application so I could see how...

    What Paystation can dispense tokens for vacs

    My tokens work for a free vac or $1 off the next wash. If I had the push button token vendor I would let them use multiple tokens in the automatic but as it is I allow 1 per wash.

    What Paystation can dispense tokens for vacs

    You can add a token teller to most any pay station. All you do is intercept the signal from the acw being sent to the wash to activate the token teller. I have hamiltons on a couple of goldlines but they do not make that option any more. AMerican changer and Carolina pride both make add on token...

    Insurance going up $1000 for this bull$hit

    Did you have any claims last year? It is a good idea to shop the insurance every year any way. When a insurance company decides to start insuring car washes it is usually cheaper for the first few years until claims start to occur.You can try WCA insurance, the Insurance center etc. They deal in...
