    Feedback & Complaints - How do you guys post contact info?

    I'm a new wash owner. I want the best service for my customers, and want to be notified of unhappy experiences. I've gotten my first complain by a customer. Se sent me a pic of some residual soap left on his dually crew cab truck he brought through my Radius. I told him I'd look into the...

    All the above, but for any residual adhesive left behind, certainly try Goof Off! Works great!

    WashCard Trouble

    Hate to bump a 4 year old thread, but figured there were enough people that had commented here that it would be better to do so than to start a new one. Has there ever been a remedy to the issue? The wash I just bought in July is showing the same thing, and the guys at WasCard say it's the...

    Solar Power at a Self Service Car Wash?

    I just closed on my wash in July, and I can't really offer you much info as I'm not really a proponent of solar(retail installed prices vs. potential savings). There is a system on my wash, 55 panels. My July-August bill was ($157.04). That is I got all my electricity for free, and banked...

    Can't open Medeco lock

    I have two on a tire dressing machine that apparently the previous owners didn't leave keys to. Can anyone PM some tips on drilling it out? Is it safe to assume the locking protrusion is the part we're aiming to remove with minimal or no damage to the outer sleeve it slides into?

    Need help: scratched windshield claim

    Go on Amazon and search for Griots Window Polish. I've never personally used it, but the review all seem positive and it's worth a try. I actually bought some to try to clean my windows in my IBA's.

    Help needed with my water softeners...

    Thanks guys for the advice. I was actually going to call Culligan, when my distributor I've been working with tracked down the guy that sold and installed the system originally. They're going to walk me through the programming of it as everyone seems to agree that them being without power for...

    Help needed with my water softeners...

    I closed on a 4ss 2iba with a dog wash last Friday. This is my first wash, although I've owned businesses my whole life. I'm very mechanical and very tech savvy, so I think once I learn all the nuances of the car wash business, I think I'll be relatively happy applying my strengths to my...

    Anyone using Quickbooks?

    My closing is planned for July 2, and I'm trying to learn Quickbooks and convert my other businesses' bookkeeping into Quickbooks. Those are commercial rental properties.

    Should I go with count up or count down with Cryptopay in my bays?

    Have you guys had any disputes with the count up? I pulled into one of my future competitors wash, to wash my car, and notice the wand still active. I though someone left it with some time on it. I began rinsing my car down and by the time I got back around to the timer, noticed it up to...
