Siemens LOGO, also sold under Schneider Electric.

I don't currently have CC - the last wash I worked with was $1.25 cash and I set it up at $1.50 CC but same time as the $1.25 cash start. The extra quarter plus 50¢ increment really helped make up for the extremely high fees (Hamilton D.A.N. which at the time was 6¢ twice per swipe plus 35¢...

I understood what you were asking. I did "price myself out" at one point - I didn't want to be the most expensive wash because there are several within a few miles of me, one is the same time per coin but more to start, one is more expensive in the bays but has free vacs, one is a lot more than...

With the higher price you'll attract the better customers. Just be the best in town and charge appropriately. But don't rip them off on time.

That was the law for many years, but it got removed quite some time ago.

It's important to use a new blade when you're scraping stainless steel. Any nicks in the blade will leave scratches. It's not really a problem as long as you're only scraping where a decal will end up. The Harbor Freight long-handle scraper works as good as any other after some adjusting -...

There are buttons to test each escrow bucket. You can also use a multimeter to test the coils. If it's infinite open, it's definitely bad. The three solenoids should read about the same.

I've seen it done, if the old ones are smooth it looks okay, but if they're cracked it looks like ass.

It won't harm stainless, but I have doubts it'll be aggressive enough to cut through a decal. Harbor Freight has a gravity feed gun for $20 so it wouldn't be much of a cost to try. I use a heat gun and a scraper which is really fast, especially if you can heat the decal and just peel it off...

JEAdams will sell the assembly that you can weld or bolt on. The hard part will be getting the old one off.

Order a couple sets of valve o-rings/backup rings, then pull the valves out and check the seals on them. If the o-rings are coming apart they can get in the regulator and cause issues. What you call "surging" might be the pump pulsating because of weak pressure on one cylinder. Ideally you...

Express Exterior, where there's usually free vacs, no hand detail, usually just one or two loaders/preppers.

What fighting? Be forthcoming about what you are.

Yes, it's easy to test quickly by unhooking the wire inside the cabinet. If it's shorted closed, the exit light will go out when you unhook the wire from the input.

Does it have an in-position switch? IIRC the regular 5000 and the Super5000 use the same treadle setup, and with the regular if the switch fails closed the exit light will stay on. Nothing on the gantry tells the computer that the car has left the bay.

That's an incredible number. That's 30-35 cars per bay on average, ought to be about $10,000 per bay per month. That should be really easy to verify in a day just watching from across the street. That asking price seems inline with their claims. A big downside IMO is that since they prep...

Some of the videos on those channels are made in the same car with the same driver. Don't Wisconsin and Iowa share a border? I asked you politely in PMs to clarify that you're a young person that rides through car washes and makes videos, which I did to not publicly embarrass you in any way...

You recommending a diner? I've been craving fried chicken all day.

"Metro" and "Fanatic" are the same person with two accounts. "He" is the one who has talked with himself between the two accounts. And I still suspect all three accounts are the same person, since you both have referred to "Metro or Fanatic" in exactly the same way. I highly doubt that. You...
