I've got a Superior Side trac; 12 years old. I just increased prices a few months ago and still have 61% buying my top ($15) pkg. I'm Greasing the machine and performing maintenance on it today. We do our own maintenance and repairs. I am considering a re-load of the IBA with a Washworld...

Mine were made by my clever friend Eric. They work great and the customers love them. They are used every day in my little 2 + 1 car wash. What a great idea to increase profits !!!!! My friends John and Eric told me for years to get them and now I wonder why I waited so long, because they...

Take a soda can and cut the ends off. Start at one end and tear the can in a spiral. Wrap the can around the break, overlapping it. Use several hose clamps along the repair area. Temporary fix. It will leak a bit but it will work. FWIW: I keep every HP hose for my equipment as a spare in...

FYI: I do not offer Blow Dry on my bottom pkg. I don't worry about people not reading signs ( CUZ THEY NEVER DO ). I focus on profit. Having a 'wet wash' option for the customer is a good idea, IMO. For many reasons.

KLEER KOTE SEALER WAX Kleer Kote Sealer Wax is an excellent protectant designed for rapid water beading and shine in all wash systems. Buffering agents have been added to ensure beading occurs under all wash conditions. Available in many scents. KK Grape I got some of this quite by chance; a...

I have crypto pay in 2 ss bays. very happy so far. none of the car wash equipment lasts forever and swipers are in a harsh environment, so you have to be realistic with your expectations.

I would start at $10 not $8. I think considering the $2 difference as an incentive to buy up isn’t as relevant as you think it is. Since you will have new equipment, I think you could be at $18 for the top pkg. Why not go $10,12,15,18?

Mine use torsion springs. There is some maitenance involved, but not a lot

I was at $8,9,10,12. 90+ % were buying top pkg. in March I raised to $10,12,13,15. No complaints! Lots still get top pkg but I haven't run numbers lately. With an increase in price, even my lower pkgs make more profit because at $12 and 13 there is less energy and product used and very few...

I just got a used Thermax Therminator. I thought it would be a nice backup for my detail shop, but it's too big and my shop space can get to feel cluttered if I'm not careful. Do you think there is a market for selling a used Therminator? New they are $2495. Thoughts?

I have big insulated doors on my SS bays. They are manually operated. I consider them a necessity. They aren't terribly expensive and they keep bays from freezing. They keep heating costs down. They are popular with customers who still 'need' to wash the car on bitter cold days. Doors are...

Copper canyon had a mans cologne scent. Yes i like tru north.

Position yourself strategically, so when the wx cooperates, you can take full advantage of it; ~focus on equipment speed , effectiveness and "up-time "( through maintenance, troubleshooting and spare parts inventory) ~ keeping things working and as tidy as possible. from changers to tree...

Hi! Has anyone added Crypto Pay to their AMS Vendor? I had the USA technologies card reader but got rid of it for the high fees that made cc acceptance unprofitable. Now that I have several items at $3, I'm thinking about Crypto Pay, since it would piggyback onto my existing 2 ss bay swipers...

Has Little Trees discontinued Copper Canyon Flavor????????????? Please say it isn't so; my customers love this one. HELP!

Check your pm's and please call. Waxman

My tri foam is a popular function. I've had it since I built new 13 years ago. I have had crypto pay a few years and it's been great for business. I just got air blowers this year. They are great!!! Only one complaint so far; customer said they were no stronger than a blow drier!!! HOWEVER...

The daily car wash count numbers sound correct based on d.t.c. of 14k ish. Don't buy based on : " hey, if I just increased wash counts by X amount, I'd make "Y" amount". Big mistake. The asking price is way too high for a 2 bay IBA wash that needs work. No deal.
