    Metal Halide to LED bulb

    Please do. I was ready to pull the trigger and try two, but am not sure what wattage to get? I currently have 175MH in the bays, and I feel they are a bit low on the light output.

    Been having a ongoing problem with my SoftGloss XS

    I think I'm going to try that next. I had the pressures at 35 or so, and I bumped it up to 45 thinking that while the wash was running that perhaps the pressure was falling too low to extend and/or retract the scrubbers. The next morning, promptly, it stopped again. It's weird - seems like...

    Been having a ongoing problem with my SoftGloss XS

    Thanks guys Actually, my employee said he saw a code 10 on the panel, which is a wheel scrub proxy. What is the best way to test them to ensure they are 100% functional and reliable, or is that just replacing them with new ones and saving the time? lol

    Anyone going to Splash! in Las Vegas?

    Missed the big show in Nashville due to my mom getting sick. Vegas is a short ride from where we are and figured I'd go and check it out. Anyone going?

    My $15 per month internet solution for CryptoPay

    I use about 25GB/mo monitoring my 16 camera CCTV system on my phone. Any that is using mostly WiFi at my house. I'd imagine that, depending on how many cameras you have, you could eat a TON of data, and more than likely they throttle your speeds at a certain limit, which would make watching...

    Been having a ongoing problem with my SoftGloss XS

    Thanks guys! I tested the wheel scrubs from the panel and everything seems OK. I also checked the prox sensors and they seemed to be good too ( lights on/off and wiggled the wires to see if I lost the light at the PLC, but no). Should I do this with the air bed out and extending & retracting...

    Been having a ongoing problem with my SoftGloss XS

    I've been having a issue with my IBA. Occasionally, the wash has been stopping with the gantry at the rear portion of the wash. I believe the wash is stopping either right before or right after the rear wheel scrub has been performed. It's weird - happens very sporadically and occasionally -...

    My foam brush sucks - please help me improve it.

    I don't think he did, but I wasn't near him 100% of the time while we were changing it out. Why would be need to change the stinger? We checked the check valve and it was good, but what would changing the stinger accomplish?

    My foam brush sucks - please help me improve it.

    I wish I had the knowledge you have, but I have only been at this a year. I'm just happy I'm able to keep the place running mechanically. Yes - my foamers are directly above the bay. I'll take a pic of the setup but it's basically a brass fitting with 3 lines coming in ( product, air, weep...

    My foam brush sucks - please help me improve it.

    Thanks everyone for all the feedback. I texted my salesman/rep the video that DiamondWash posted and he promptly replied and said " no problem, I'll come down tomorrow". That's pretty awesome being that he's 3 hours away! DiamondWash - They're definitely Fluid-O-Tech pumps as I wanted to see...

    I was thinking that today. I might just make up a batch of just soap & water and see what happens.

    My foam brush sucks - please help me improve it.

    DiamondWash - Yes - I also have a Ryko SS Equipment. I like it so far. Thanks for that pic. Today I just pulled out the mini metering tubes and replaced it with the same tip as you have ( which was what my salesman suggested). I checked everything today. I even added 30oz of concentrate...

    My foam brush sucks - please help me improve it.

    Yeah, my rep did say that he set me up on the light end regarding ratios and keeping chemical costs down. Not sure what the barb is for - perhaps some of the others here could explain? I checked the foot valve and it seemed to be functioning OK. Yes, I understand this. I guess I need to...

    Bill Breaker - yay or nay?

    No. I re-cycle the 5's from the rest of my machines. I usually use the best ones. I also heard that new bills could cause issues sticking together.
