Ooops i guess the attachment didnt work. I went to 10,12,13,$15. It’s good to keep pricing competitive.

Hey, I don't mind seeing customers walk briskly while they wash the car. For some of them, that's the most physical activity they get all week! Raising their heart rate for 4-10 minutes is a GOOD THING! I'm offering FREE mini workouts! Besides, haven't people been 'racing the clock' since...

I think that price is way too low. If a car wash can charge close to $1/minute, why give 30 min for $6?

I just got word from the ICA show that Washworld has a new touchfree for $59,000! Lets discuss!

I clean my 4 vacs weekly with these gloves...

I've found some really great deals at goodwill / thrift stores. I have no trouble finding brand name winter coats that I give to employees. LL Bean, Carhartt, Dickies; they're all at Used clothing stores. I think I paid $3 for the last LL bean Coat I got there. You can easily add a patch...

I don't like the business model. Too labor-heavy. I also do not invest in businesses where land is not part of the deal.

For those of you still on the forum but out of the carwash business, what do you miss?

Hmmm good advice! Maybe I will raise value of tokenotes to $15 and continue taking them awhile. There aren’t too many in circulation.

I've just raised prices in my IBA. Old pricing was $8,9,10,12. New is $10,12,13,15. We have always used the Hamilton Tokenotes for the top package. So now they are valued $12 and the top is $15. I do not want to change the tokenote value to $15 for several reasons. I am thinking I will...

I finally did this. My competitor is at $17 so it was time. In fact, it was overdue. I was at 8,9,10,12. Preview attachment IMG_2483.JPG IMG_2483.JPG 26 KB

Thats the steam pot in the mytee steamer.

Here’s a sign im planning to fix up and make i ternally lit.

No i don’t think so.

One thing i never considered before was pump size. I had a cat 530 go bad and replaced it with a 5 series arimitsu. The 5 series pumps more gpm, which costs more to run. It also puts out more gpm at 1000 psi. That gets the car cleaner and takes the customer less time to wash / rinse. This...

This sounds exciting! Have you done long term testing to see effects on cars as well as effectiveness during temperature changes and different soils?

Yes. I have a mytee steamer i really love. I have had a few problems with the steam pot but it is fixed now and works great

A favorite pet peeve of mine: when people leave the selector on an hp function with time left on meter. Wand is holstered and spraying away. I hate this! What a waste. Solution: follow them home. Go into their bathroom. Turn sink on full blast. Leave shower on full blast. Exit the home.

Get everything working properly first. Fix the broken bay and the vending machines. Patch the parking lot and paint the building. Fix the sign by the road.
