    Time investment

    I put in between 30 and 45 hours a week at my car wash. My situation is a little different because we have a standalone detail shop that is open six days per week, and a used car lot attached to the wash too. I have cut back on my hours in the last couple of years trying to have more of a life...

    New dryers for IBA?

    i'm installing a new touch free machine soon and leaving my 15 year old superior standalone dryers. The only thing I've done to them in 15 years is repair the motor that makes the top fan oscillate. I think that's a really strong statement about superior dryers.

    New touchless increase?

    There are alot of things I would rely on my distributor for, but advice on pricing isn't one of them. That's up to the business owner to determine for themselves, based on a number of factors. Why would a distributor care where you are priced within the marketplace? It may seem like a huge...

    Wash Recipe

    What about 3, 4, or 5 passes of a good high ph presoak? Has anyone tried that? I've got plenty of room to add some chemical, water and energy cost to the wash that is priced at $20. I really want to wow the customer on my top pkg and make it unbeatable. With the WW Razor, I could add a pass...

    Looking at buying a Car Wash

    It doesn't look too bad to me. I'd like to see some pics of the whole site. There is some potential in what you describe. A nice little self-serve could be fun to own. The trick is to buy it for the right price...

    Wash Recipe

    has anyone tried this in a touchless??; Apply one pre-soak and rinse it off with high pressure. Follow that with another presoak then rinse that with high pressure. I'm curious as to the potential for better cleaning versus two presoak's in a row followed by high pressure. Thoughts?
