Sent one in and got it back 3 days later. Not bad. It's been raining a lot so I don't think anyone missed it.

How about offering the dealers free car washing for one year to their customers for each car sold for $100. You could put a rfid in the sold car. Then when the years up you can re-sign the customer at your yearly clean car membership program price. You could also offer the dealers an unlimited...

Bigleo I want to get this straight, you're usung Track 2A only for your high pressure soap in the self service bays? Do you mix it with any other chemical? What tip do you use? Thanks

Big Leo do you use the Kleen-Track-2A for your high pressure soap in the self service? Does it mix 10 gals. water to 5 gals. soap? What tip do you use with it? I love the vanilla cream smell and suds but I do believe it doesn't clean as well as some others I've had in the past. I'm do to order...

What about using a cell phone with internet service. Use the cheapest monthly plan. Buy an internet card for the cell phone, I think it's about $40-50 per month. Have the credit card batch out once per day late at night so you won't be using much time. Might work.

I started using the new Coinco Vantage acceptors about a month ago. So far I've replaced 5 Mars units because of not working when they got wet. It's been a problem for several years. I would send them in to get fixed, pay whatever they wanted and then they would do the same thing again later...

I use to buy from Arcadia (nice people). I think if you bought 4 or 5 5 gallon pails they shipped free.

If the ozone machine doesn't work the first time you might want to take the carpet out completely, take it over to a self service wash, high pressure it thoroughly, let drip dry. After it dries reinstall the carpet. Then re-ozone the car overnight again. I used to use a fogger device sometimes...

10 gallons water to a 5 gallon bucket of soap.

In my first glass vendor I used to sell a lot of Famous Amos chocolate chip cookies from Sams. The only problem was in the summer the chocolate chips would melt. So I would sell them in the fall, winter, spring and early June. When I got my new vendor I bought all car products and forgot all...

You might call detail shops in your town and see if anyone has one. That would be the cheapest way. Just make sure they will use it in the car at least 4-5 hours and preferrably over night. Waxman's right about removing the seats and shampooing everything. Also have them blow out the vents...

One wash is $1.50 for 4 minutes for the last 8 years. The other wash is $1.00 for 2 minutes plus bonus time of 14 minutes for $5.00 Vacs $1.00 for 4 minutes.

Mike at Kleenrite talked me into trying vanilla cream hp soap years ago. He didn't tell me to dilute it, he just told me to use the smallest tip. When I got it I changed the tip, put the hose into the 5 gal. bucket. The next day I got there I had thick soap all over the cars & bays and these...

I would think an Ozone machine would do the job.

Customers like it. If they run out of time they only have to put in a $1 to finish. Bucket washing has been no different at a $1 vs. 1.50 startup. I do have customers that told me they came in just to wash their wheels a day or two after washing their car. As far as an increase in income it's...

You might have a problem with customers putting in $1.00 since this has been your starting time for a while not $2.00 to start and nothing happens. I was 1.50 for 4 minutes. I lowered to 1.00 for 2 minutes. Most of my complaints were from customers not putting enough money in the machine...

Bill my son and I had a great time. It was nice to put faces to names. Thanks Jim for the gift certificate. My son has already used it.

Any packaging change to Armorall would be a improvement for my D&H vendor. The darn things hang up on the glass front a lot. I trim the top and bottom, fold it and it still hangs.

If you have kids or anyone washing cars on your lot for charity you better check with your insurance agent to make sure your fully covered if someone gets hurt.

Bypass the switch all together. I did that years ago. Just leave the hole that holds the switch empty. I blacked out the wording about pressing the switch. Only problem is the foam comes out as long as the shampoo timer is on but that way more customers notice the carpet shampooer.
