    Mars Validator Issue HELP!

    FWIW, with something this critical to the car wash revenue stream, I'd keep at least one spare on hand at all times.

    Good customer said "whiteish stuff" came outta TC

    That's paint they ran over in the street. Whether it's guideline paint, latex house paint etc., it is something they ran over while driving, not something that came from your wash.

    How to build IBA on your own

    I'm sure there are a few car wash scientist Phd's out there.... However, with all due respect, what makes you think you can do better than the brilliant engineers / inventors who first invented and then perfected our modern-day automated car wash machinery? Are you being arrogant or are you...

    Unrealistic asking prices

    If you're always happy and smiling at these same people, some day you can sell THEM the wash for a great price. I say agree and smile when they say how much they'd love to own it. I know one guy who employed a version of this strategy and did quite well when he sold.
