There's WashGear, you bring your own processor and keep all but the basic fees. It would've been great with the service Costco used to offer that was something ridiculously low like 1.2% and no transaction fees. WashGear's hardware is pretty expensive and it has to be hardwired, but it seems...

Yeah, try cleaning the back of a Mini Cooper with a D&S 5000.

Try Red Hot from Scotch Plaid. It's a little cheaper and a little stronger cleaning, also produces more suds. I'd stick with powder for the high pressure soap, in my experience it's more efficient than liquid because there needs to be so much water just to maintain a liquid whereas a powder is...

Mine was a genuine answer. Bypassing the timer means sending the power right to the rotary switch. It's possible because that's what you do. Possibly, which is why there's mention of a relay. The comment right before your very first post mentions this. I'm not familiar with Nayax readers...

I've got to add CC acceptance to mine, and I intend to raise cash price once installed. I'm way behind on price increases.

That's what "bypassing the timer" means.

You should get free shipping on an order over $1250 if you have the points. Next Kleen Scene free shipping is probably in September.

You need to use something that removes water deposits. Brake parts cleaner is not meant for that.

That's not a RNS, doesn't even sound like a Hamilton. RNS is a Hamilton single changer, one of everything, DRS is two completely separate changers in one cabinet, no master/slave so if one side shuts down for any reason the other isn't affected. Hamilton does make a large cabinet changer with...

I converted a Rowe BC1400 to all Hamilton inside. If yours has the flat stainless face and it's not bent up, you can remove it easily and clean it up, replace the decal, and it'll look like new. A Hamilton RNS with a Mars validator would be my choice on a budget. It's just a single changer...

Reaching down into the main pit last night to pull out a comforter and hoping there wasn't a body wrapped up in it.

I'll have to stop at one of the washes he remodeled to get you a pic, but it's not far out of my way.

I've never tried a Simoniz presoak, but I'd try Waxman's mix.

I would recommend upgrading your timers so you can run count-up and display the time. Otherwise, you need a relay device to keep the timed load off the Nayax unit.

I know two local operators with multiple washes both who really like having bill acceptors in the bays. Yes, it'll make you more money. Yes, there's a risk of break-in. If you do add bill acceptors, get something with a substantial locking system and layers of protection. You want a meter...

You should have two plugs. One is for the pump for the bays, which should have its own plug. The other is for the whole production side. The inlet solenoid gets power from the same source as the motor, it doesn't matter where it hooks up as long as this relay turns on both the motor and the...

At least now you know why the tank is overfilling. The motor and solenoid were originally wired directly together. It doesn't matter where you make the connection as long as it's safe. I think it originally had the wires connected in the motor and continuing through to the solenoid, but it...

Why do you think you need to replace the wire? Do you need more conductors to add functions? It doesn't go bad unless it's exposed and squirrels have been chewing on it or it's strewn across the roof and the sun has baked off the insulation. You don't need any special cable since it's just...

It's going to vary by state. In Texas, car washes aren't required to pay sales tax. Before the intra-state sales tax thing came down, Kleen-Rite wouldn't charge me sales tax on vending. Even though I would be legally obligated to pay the sales tax to the state, I had no sales and use tax...

Unless you're buying direct from Zep, your prices are set by your saleman/rep. If you think you're being gouged, ask Zep for another place to buy from and do some price comparison. I used to use Simoniz products. I just looked through some of the ones I used about ten years ago, and they've...
