    Someone else here had the exact same thing happen a few years ago. It must be standard operating procedure at Sherwin Williams.

    Pulsation Dampener

    Possibly. The issue I have noticed is that the Para Plate regulators are chrome plated brass on the inside. When the chrome wears away the replacement o-rings do not last very long at all. They now cost over $200 (for the 10 gpm size) so are about five times the cost of the SMC regulators. I...

    Pulsation Dampener

    If I installed one of those pulsation hoses does it go inline or does it tee off and have a cap on the other end?

    Pulsation Dampener

    Recently I swapped out the BR10-1 US Para Plate regulator (they have gotten pricey for how long they last) for an SMC 5551090 on our Cat 1010 spot free delivery pump running 400 psi. It seems to pulsate in the bay more than it used to. We are using the Mosmatic lightweight comfort hoses in the...

    That would be funny to watch someone wash there.

    Bill Changer Ripped from the wall

    We are very fortunate to have an excellent police force. Sometimes we apologize for calling them on a petty issue and they tell us no problem, that is what they are here for. Almost all of them have great attitudes probably coming from the chief. We know several on a first name basis.

    Self service carpet cleaner [extractor]

    I have thought about building something like this for years but there are many hurdles. Around here it freezes for months out of the year. There are concerns that people will not vac first and therefore plug it up with too large of solids. To keep the daily maintenance down it probably needs a...

    What’s THE most overcomplicated equipment you’ve worked on?

    There is not a circuit board in this thing. You are thinking of the 29000 series machines and yes the board will fry in those if you are still running the older board that has the orange plugs on it. The newer replacement board is a different design and is robust.

    What’s THE most overcomplicated equipment you’ve worked on?

    JE Adams 28000 6-in-1 is an unbelievable nightmare to diagnose wiring issues and there's two pounds of spaghetti equivalent in there.

    Have you checked to see if the spray tip is plugged up?

    Self Serve RV/Boat Wash Question

    I wish there was a self serve wash big enough to wash my fifth wheel camper around here. There's nothing for at least an hour drive.

    Self Serve RV/Boat Wash Question

    The issue with not having bay clearance enough for the tallest vehicles is that they will try to enter no matter what. It is just a matter of time before building damage occurs.

    I love Pollen!

    We could use some pollen here. We got screwed out of most of our snowy weather this winter so there was not much salt put down on the roads. ☹

    Pressure setting

    32 degrees is too wide of a pattern IMHO.

    Pressure setting

    We are running only 1,000 psi and get compliments quite often that we have great pressure. Maybe you have corrosion somewhere restricting flow. What size tip are you using on the wands? We are using a 2507.
