    Shurvend Vending Machine

    I have one in my wash. Who ever built it, put a SS cover on the outside, and the vending machine gets serviced from the inside of the mechanical room.

    Where to stay in Nashville?

    I found a room with a private bathroom & entrance 1.3 miles from the music center on airbnb. It was $75/night. My first time trying airbnb, but since I was traveling solo, I figured I didn't need anything too extravagant. Place looked nicer than most hotels and had 5/5 star rating from the...

    HP rinse on bay 2 - water trickles down FB hose bay 1?

    Well, my chem distributer was out yesterday, and he was puzzled himself. We closed off every shut off valve that feeds the 1/4" poly to weep the TF and FB. That stopped it. Maybe today I'll be able to go through each weep output on the solenoid and see what is causing all this? I dunno -...

    HP rinse on bay 2 - water trickles down FB hose bay 1?

    Thanks for the help guys . After spending the day there yesterday, I think I had it wrong. It's not the HP Rinse, but rather the tri-foam wax gun that's causing it. It seems that when any bays trip foam wax gun is used, i see water being purged through all the other wax guns & foam brushes.

    HP rinse on bay 2 - water trickles down FB hose bay 1?

    Noticed yesterday that when HP rinse is selected in my bay 2, I saw small amount of water trickling down the clear FB hose on my bay 1. At first I thought it might be the weep solenoid, but wouldn't all bays be affected? Check valve for FB? Thanks for any help!

    Self serve tire shine machines near vending

    For now I'm leaving mine. The few customers that consistently use it spend big dollars in my SS bays to wash their diesel trucks. They usually spend $25/wk each washing their $80K+ vehicles. Hate to lose them. Going to first try to reduce dressing flow. If that still doesn't cut down on the...

    Self serve tire shine machines near vending

    I have a Black Diamond located next to one of my 5 vacuums. It's also located at the far east of my lot. It is an ABSOLUTE mess for little money. Perhaps switching to water based dressing will make it a bit more bearable.

    Which model vacuum motor has the best performance

    Regarding seals, after looking at the ones on my Fragramatics, does anyone here use foam/rubber weather stripping for seals? Seems like it would be a cheaper alternative that you could just run down to your local hardware store to source.

    Which model vacuum motor has the best performance

    Got my 2 motors today from Windtrax - FAST shipping. Hopefully I'll have a moment to install the two into my poorest performing of 5 vacs and update with performance gains.

    Vacs $3 - 5 minutes.. Should have done it sooner..

    I wish I could make more on my vacuums. I have 5 Fragramatics combo vacs and they average about $10/ea a week. I have a EE with free vacs less than 3 mi away. I also have another SS with vacs at $1/4min, which is what I'm at.
