    Looking for Equipment Suggestions for an Auto Dealership

    If you’re washing cars to go on the lot and/or for customers I would recommend a friction machine. It will clean better than any touchless wash but as you mentioned touchless eliminates the you scratched my car crowd. I own both and there is no comparison when it comes to cleaning ability...

    Wash Select II credit card processing

    I have 3 of them at 2 locations and knock on wood no major issues. I got away from TSYS years ago. Cryptopay on them now. If you are looking at selling memberships and you don’t have someone at location full time I would look hard the Dencar units or something like that so people can buy the...

    Whats the difference between iba, & express

    I’ve seen this post but never inquired. I’m in Wilmington NC so 200 miles from me being the reason I’ve never looked into it. Nice looking facility though !! Have you talked to the broker about the numbers ?

    First time buyer for automatic two bay wash?

    How big is the property and what’s the gross revenue. Over a years time what is the daily wash count average because those numbers you shared look good. Most places are sold 3 to 5x gross revenue with the real estate. Sounds good but just depends on their asking. Owner finance is the way...

    Best friction automatic:

    You’re right. Looks like a great machine. I like the 5 brush action. Support not near where I’d want it to be. Markvii and washworld are close to me.

    Best friction automatic:

    2nd site I purchased had 2 markvii’s. Softwash and a combo. They do a great job!! I like the idea of the profile only because of no tracks and open floor space.

    Crytptopay/WorldPay

    What a pain. I’ve never been able to get through to worldpay. I go online chat to cryptopay and once through I request a call and never had a problem reaching them. If I were in your boat I’d figure out how often he comes and when and have him trespassed. Doesn’t sound like a customer Id...

    IBA Membership experience data

    Your Vacs are free for just In Bay users? Self Serves on property? If so how do you keep people from just coming in to use vacs and leaving?

    And even when getting annoyed or frustrated at whatever issue I remind myself that personally for me it beats the heck out of pushing papers sitting behind a desk.

    IBA Membership experience data

    I had heard the Omni doesn’t work. I never bothered. I only have a little over a couple hundred members. You will have that small percentage that abuses. It’s a huge drawback for Everwash imo. I’m looking at the Dencars. They look like they could keep people from the abuse. Maybe owner...

    IBA Membership experience data

    Abuse was rampant at the start and I think the highest avg I had was around 4.3 washes per month. Once people got wind they were being watched or the word got out I’m at 3.1 per month. Best advice I received was from another operator that said if you’re going to sit around and watch cameras...
