ON my ryko OHD touchless washes I use the ryko blasters at the entrance to blast the wheels and rocker panels as the car drives in. Gator on the forum had a similar setup to what you are talking about on his softgloss when he had one. Using these preblasters does save time on a wash cycle.

Put it on the classifieds on this site. I bought 5 old wash card systems from someone on this site. They are not worth much though. If you get $100 for you have listed that is about all you can expect.

I guess I must be getting old. I actually called my attendant who was working at the time and he took care of it. Retreived her shirt out of the vac, she thanked him and went on her way.

I found that dultmeier sales tends to be the cheapest on these types of pumps. They carry starite and several other brands like GOuld. Give them a call with your pump numbers and they can give you options.

I was just reading the forum and got a call from a woman at one of the washes. She said "this will sound odd but I just vacuumed up my shirt and I am sitting here at the wash with just my bra and I need to get my shirt out of the vac........ I just got back, problem solved.

The black plastic bowl gets a groove worn in the bottom right next to the daisy wheel. Usual fix for this is replacemtn of the black plastic hopper bowl. You can get these from Randy who used to post here all the time. On a few of mine I have gone to the hardware store and purchased a thin sheet...

I have already paid for mine also but if you do not give it away before you go to China send it to me and I am sure I can find someone on site to use it.

I am going but will pay for my pass to help out the WCA. Hope to see few others there.

I would first check the voltage at the acceptor. I had a similar problem a long time ago with some equipment. The voltage check checked right at 24 volts when nothing was being used. Several bays drew power from the same transformer and when several solenoids would be on demand voltage would...

I have one turbo dvr system and it has worked fine with no problems for over 3 years. When buying a camara system I have tried the costco and sams club units in the past. They do not compare to quality of picture you can get with a professional type of system like the turbo dvr. Get the highest...

A local restaraunt next to one of my washes was broken into this week. He had a large safe bolted down into the concrete. When the owner came into work on Monday he found his safe emptied of about $8000 in cash. The safe was fine but the battery for the electronic digital code had been removed...

I see a VW bug running around in our town with a stars and stripes wrap. I just don't think it is right. It was won in a duck race a few years back. The same dealer sold GM products which would have been a better choice. I mean really the VW bug was Hitlers "people's car".

It might depend on were you live on how much weep water you use. 20 degrees might be the normal high temp for a day in my area. I have always weeped hard water with no adverse effects. One thing to do for sure is to hook up a weep miser if you do not have one already. That will cut your weep...

Use towels that are dedicated to cleaning windows only. They should be washed seperatly and not with towels that you use for other things.

If you are using the same size tips in each I would think that the chemical draw would be the same but you are adding it to more volume of water so you would need a bigger tip size to get to your desired level of chemicals.

Just to clarify a little more: A .083 will flow 2 gallons of water per minute and a .086 is rated at 2.5 gpm. It would take more chemical to get the same dilution ratio through the larger injector.

I will try to get some pictures today.

Check out the new SSCWN that is currently being shipped out. It will explain how you can get your lights replaced at little or no cost.

I usually try to work 3 day holiday weekends due to unique sets of challenges I often encounter. Over the years it seems that more unusual things happen on these weekends. So far this weekend I have had one lady call and tell me that one of my automatics sprayed mud all over her car during the...

I bought some fittings that make a permanent repair in seconds on high pressure hose. Just cut the hose were it is leaking and slide a tapered metal coupler inside the hose. It comes with 2 parts that slide over the hose first and then tighten around the hose and coupler with a wrench. I keep a...
