I'm not sure the wheel size; it was Eric's car. I think the dryers were in the bay, but we went to a few washes that day, so I'm not 100% sure on that.

There was an area missed on each tire.

One Thanksgiving I watched a guy at a gas station wash his entire car with a window squeegee!!!:alien:

I went through one of these in Keene, NH last week. It was a nice, fast wash. I was a bit disappointed with the tire shine application and overall wash quality, though. For me, this machine is too complicated. I prefer the inverted L machines, myself. Maybe they are slower, but I like the...

I use armorall on my stainless, lexan, etc. It seems to work great for me and it's fast and easy and makes the surface look good and it lasts.

I put down the blue foam board insulation myself at my wash. The pex tubing was then stapled to the foam. They told me it was to keep the heat moving up toward the concrete surface and keep the tubing from getting cold underneath from the earth. Made sense to me and my floor heat works great.

Wow. I may have tried 1200 psi and new / different nozzles.

Yeah that was a fun day! It’s so easy to get caught up in our daily routines but its good to break free Sometimes.

I'm very skeptical about reclaimed water in general and I can see several problems, like lint creating issues for you.

The costs are considerable; site work, utilities connections, cement work for floors, building and fixtures and signs, equipment, permits, etc. You will also have to hire professionals: engineer, lawyer, etc. I love seeing the expression on peoples' faces when I tell them what it costs to...

COVID won't last forever and I think the situation we are in is rare. I think the vacancy rate in a given area is more important when considering apartment rentals. None of my tenants has had a problem paying rent.

Can you view it on your phone?

Start by watching this video. When my vendor had a problem, I went online and watched the video then ordered the correct parts from KleenRite and installed them and fixed it that way.

I've been adding pictures of my wash and videos and posts about the detail shop with great results. Google gives you your stats regularly and I'm getting more and more contacts through the website to my business. www.tiny.cc/houseofwax

This question and post offends my sensibilities, and I won't participate except to say that the "bio-hazard" incidents are a part of the car wash business but I experience them and put them in the past, where they belong. Then I raise my price.

I like the idea of selling your wash and using the proceeds as the downpayment on a large apartment complex. As long as you know the vacancy rate in your area, this can be a great business and I think it would work well for a snow-bird. It could also be a nice way to increase your personal...

Somewhere between $750,000 and $1.25 MM.

Adding CC acceptance and an APP like Touch4Wash isn't too expensive. A 2 arm Belanger isn't my first choice for equipment, but I think you could make it run well enough to make some $$.

Have you looked for a local car wash equipment distributor to give you a quote to repair or replace the worn equipment? That's where I would start. Many businesses make capital improvements as a part of normal operations, in order to stay competitive. There is nothing wrong with investing in...

I spent thousands last april when a lousy plumber incorrectly installed 2 new sewer pumps, so $285 sounds cheap.
