    Low Pressure Tubing Size.

    Is this in a Self-Serve? How many bays? I am curious because I am doing a major re-model on the Exterior of the wash and decided to redo the LP Foam Brush and Tire Cleaner solenoids, all the HP hose and LP hose in all the bays. The original installation had 3/8? Rubber tubing from solenoids...

    Wand Holder

    The 17" SS Wand Holders you get from Dultmeier or KR...I want to run a smooth bore vac hose from the end of the wand holder to the pipe that goes to the pit. I thought a 2" vac hose would fit over the 17" wand holder but it won't. Anyone have a setup like this and would care to share? ::D

    What size High Pressue Hose do you use in the bay?

    I use a Parker Crimper and crimp my own. 3/8" from pump to wand. Although I may try using 1/4 from the boom down. By the way I use parker parflex 560-6 3/8" hose. I just got a price of 3.79 per ft for 500 ft. reel ! Outrageous, last time I bought cost just 1.62 per ft.

    FRP panels without silicone?

    Thats why I like to use ss screws and plastic anchors for the signs. I am just wondering if you will have to leave a gap in the FRP around the holes for the signs for expansion, I would think so. Sounds like you've put up a few panels MEP, whats your input?

    FRP panels without silicone?

    I'm not doubting you Wally, I believe it will work and am going to try it. I am in the middle of a major remodel and decided midstream to use the FRP instead of painting, The contractor is going to put the panels up, but he doesn't have allot of experience installing FRP, so I am going to help...

    FRP panels without silicone?

    Thanks for the detailed description of how it is done, this is what I was looking for, someone who has actually installed it and knows how to do it correctly. Couple more questions: You put a sheet on the wall with all the pre-drilled holes, you put the first couple rivets in to hold in...

    FRP panels without silicone?

    What size fasteners do you use? I know 1/4", but how long. I am going into cinder block. Do you stagger the fasteners on opposite panel edges and next to the division bar to get a flat seam? You said this: "We did use clear silicone to fix the vertical end J chanels to the FRP panels, not the...

    FRP panels without silicone?

    Is is the sds drill bits that are like that, I have a Milwaukee Rotary Hammer that uses those bits. Seems kind of a bit of an odd idea since there is no boring surface on that part of the drill bit, I don't see how that would work.

    air compressors

    Check out the eaton compressors. I purchased one last year and they are really well built. Personally I wouldn't waste the money on a two-stage unless you need it. If your SS only, Single stage would be fine.

    FRP panels without silicone?

    Without the glue do you put the rivets 12 oc or 16 oc. A local distributor recommended 12 oc if glue was not used on the panels. How about mounting signs, just mount normally? One suggested putting spacers behind the signs for expansion. Also do you leave an 1/8" gap between the dividers?

    FRP panels without silicone?

    I am going to install with no adhesive. Manufacture recommends using adhesive on the panels because of ice buildup, although you would have less with frp.
