    I’m new. Please bear with me

    Moe Randy is right about JBS. I use only JBS for all my chemicals. Great soap that actually cleans. Not only for soap but also presoak, wheel cleaner, foam brush, wax (clear coat) and triple foam. Their good guys to work with too.

    Which concentrates are better

    I’ve switched to JBS Fonic soap from orange cream. My customers commented the first day we put it in. They liked the foam much better and said it cleaned better too. Best part is my strainer isn’t getting gummed up anymore.

    Etowah Valley Quick Pay & TSYS Double Charging
