Ordered the 516 r kit from kleen rite. Comes with rails and pulley. Saved $300!

I started out 13 years ago as 'tokens only'; I did not accept quarters....... I vended tokens for $1 each, and was $2 start. BIG MISTAKE!!! You may vend tokens only as change but you must accept tokens, quarters and credit cards. I left alot of money on the table during my 'tokens only'...

Ordered the Arimitsu 516 today. I got the pulley and rails as well, so installing shouldnt be too hard. Thanks to all who replied!

Well I knew my Cat 530 needed repairs. Water was getting into the oil and it needed to come out of service to be fixed. I have several excuses for the delay; sewer repairs I did really sapoed my energy. But the problem got alot worse today. The pump lost pressure , blew the oil cap off and...

I've had good luck with Tapeswitch. These things just last and last!

I have a 3 bay detail shop and a used car lot. It really makes the business more robust and resilient to have these revenue streams. I have an 8 plex apartment building, too, which I enjoy owning.

I think that if a wash owner is contemplating a price increase, they probably should have raised them up about 6 months ago. The business should charge what the market will bear. I have hesitated to raise prices in the past. Then, when I finally increase them I get little or no pushback. I’m...

I started washing and waxing cars in the 80’s. In the 90’s, I started a full time detailing business in a rented location. I wanted a way to make money during the winter months when detailing was slow, so I developed plans for a car wash. It was not easy getting financed, but I kept refining...

I bought this https://trans-mate.com/product/tm111-brite-wheel/#tab-additional_information just to try for the washing we do for the detail shop customers. It works, but not well enough for that application, IMO. However, I was thinking I'd try it for wall cleaner.

I don't see car washes as a draw for the other stores in proximity. I love my wash, but there are higher uses for alot of the land that is occupied by a carwash. Dollar General, Taco Bell and Chik Fil A would be a good fit and very profitable on many car wash lots! Come to think of it, they...

I use a mix of simoniz correct powder and simoniz foam additive in my foam brush. It foams white. Great cleaning power, too. No color, no scent.

Mud, extra trash everywhere, high sales, junk tires, stuff from people 'Spring Cleaning' the car . Projects!!! Things like : Pot Hole filling, putting up new vending machines, in bay blowers and signs. Selling more used cars, as people get taxes back.

Hello! My Hamilton Gold Line periodically stops taking bills. A re-set of the breaker corrects the issue. Do you think this could be due to a low-power situation that happens when my IBA blowers plus other motors are running at that same time? If so, should I get a power correction device to...

I’m at $3 start. I raised it from $2 awhile back. Maybe it’s the same as the shrinking candy bar or bag of chips. It’s not that I don’t care. However, an increase was needed, so this was a compromise, instead of raising startup to $4. There are only 2 ways to raise price.

I'm so glad to have some good friends who've 'got my back'. I recently decreased my time per coin in my 2 SS bays. It's a necessary price increase and I can already see the difference it's making in added sales. I was telling a friend about this and he said: "what about Cryptopay?". I said...

Ok; put 6 of the 2510's in my Kleen Rite cart!

Squeal started once I re-nozzled the pipe. I had drilled a couple out big (previous to this) and no more squeal.

Make yourself a troubleshooting and maintenance log for the machine. I did this and it helped alot. I would have a problem then flail around fixing it when I was new to this. Then I'd fix it. Then, later, if a similar problem occurred, I'd try and remember what I did to fix. The log I keep...
