    Quickbooks Expense

    I just cancelled QB annual 'subscription'. They said a QB desktop annual subscription gets you : automatic updates, free data backup and recovery, and a few other things. The most complicated thing I used QB for was payroll, so I switched to a payroll service. It is very reasonable...

    Friction vs Touch Free - Rural Area

    how many automatic car washes does a town of 5000 really need? Low quality touch free car washes can be adjusted to clean very well. That could be a problem with the chemicals. Maybe they don't have a water softener. Maybe their maintenance is not good and all nozzles are not working properly...

    Most IBA problems

    same thing with my old superior touch free machine. It was usually a proximity switch or cable or cable end. I could always tell when a gearbox was going bad before hand. I also had problems with bearings on the drive wheel and the guide wheels.

    Zep Pricing

    My mix was 50 pounds of correct powder and about a third of a 5 gallon pail of Simoniz foam additive. It was very effective but I was putting it on very heavy. With my new chemical I get 500 cars per drum. I was nowhere near that with the Simoniz...

    Your post is in the wrong section. You'll get better responses if you put it in the conveyor section, not the details section.

    New Touch Free Car Wash Equipment

    It's about reliability, speed and ease of use for the customer as well as cleaning. My old Superior machine cleaned just fine, but my new Razor is far better. Faster wash times, easier for customers to load in, much more reliable. And the light show and speaker that bosses the customers...

    If you bought a brand new razor you could wash twice as many cars and get 1/100 of the maintenance calls!

    What am I going to do?

    take a class in some thing you've always wanted to learn more about. Work on those home projects that you haven't been able to get to. Buy an old car and fix it up a little bit so you can drive it on the weekends etc. Join a gym and work out. The endorphin rush will make you feel great.

    21 Y/O, Potential First Car Wash, No RE Experience

    if hiring out all the work that needs to be done at a car wash was a feasible option, don't you think that all the members of this forum would be doing that? They are not. They are managing the car wash themselves. It might be appealing for you to think that there are shortcuts that you can...

    Customers report under paying with crypto pay???

    Yes the Swiper seems to be configured properly. On the crypto pay control panel it shows the proper amount associated with each customer name. Customers that have called and said they paid $10 were charged $22 according to crypto pay control panel.
