    Touchless Front & Rear Eyebrow removal

    Don’t think that’s some kind of new concept. One low , one high. I’ve never heard any benefit of running 2 hi’s , sounds like dumping $$ down the drain.

    Mac from the forum

    Mac was a good guy. He was a magic wand distributor when we met him back in 2000 when getting into this business. Refurbished the SS side of our wash for us. Caught up w him on this forum. RIP Mac

    Have you purchased a used IBA? How did it go?

    That’s what I’ve been thinking of doing. My only hesitation is that it’s a mark vii combo wash and the slower site is unmanned and rural. Thinking about damage claims from the friction wash.

    Stuff like this makes you want to quit the business...

    Feel for ya and you’re right , it’s those types of morons that make our washes exhausting. This DA decided to spray paint his initials last night in one of the ss bays. FB post and threaten to prosecute had him call within a few hours. Told him to get rid of it by tomorrow or he’ll be charged.
