    XE validator won't suck bills in / choppy

    XE validator in my iba acw started wonking out yesterday; thought moisture was the problem ( running w/bay doors open). it won't pull bills in properly; stuttering. took apart and cleaned belts. worked ok. then today a guy dropped a bill in a puddle then inserted it. after that, i can't get...

    Vac/Vending Dollar bills only

    i've actually heard alot of news stories about casinos being far less profitable than they used to be. i think you're comparison is off base. you're somehow equating car wash sales to gambling sales and i just don't think you can draw that straight of a line between the two. heck, why not...

    Vac/Vending Dollar bills only

    casino business is not what i understand. the total i have ever put into slots in my life is less than $100. you assume a trend for casinos = a trend for carwashes. not sold. for me it's best to take quarters but not vend them; i vend tokens. walk on quarters is still significant to me, so...

    do whatever you want; i am not against you; i am FOR you! i want you to take in as much $$$ as possible!!! you run your business the way it works best for you. the way mine works best is to: take cc/quarters/ tokens in ss bays, tokens/quarters in vacs and cc/cash, quarters/tokens in iba. i...

    Vac/Vending Dollar bills only

    nah; you are bucking a trend / mindset and why bother? it's better to accept bills, cc, quarters and tokens.

    Vac/Vending Dollar bills only

    imo car wash owners are leaving $ on the table by not accepting quarters. yes i know cc is the wave of the future, but many customers still pay with quarters. i learned the hard way but then i corrected the mistake. i bring more $ to the bank now and isn't that the main goal of this business???

    I love having this type of day

    yes i love this type of day, too, where i am 'riding the lightning'. add in some detailing and used car sales action and you get the idea of my day when busy.

    LW4000 Buzzer Continuous sound...

    is there a way you could have the wires hooked up incorrectly? since you know where water got in, i'd go back to that. take connections apart, strip wires back (if applicable), make new connections, test existing connectors. maybe there is a connector involved with green corrosion that is...

    Presoak, Hot, Cold. What works?

    i know i'm just hooked on bubbly, soapy, crazy hp soap that looks like milk! i am in the process of calculating soap cost per auto wash and have a pretty good idea of what it costs per car for iba presoak. i guess i will calculate ss next so i know exactly.

    Vac/Vending Dollar bills only

    i don't think it's a good idea. for one thing, i think the acceptance rate is far higher with coins. lots of people vac in poor weather (vs washing) and wet bills get rejected. the coin counters can count wet coins. there are more parts to foul up in bill acceptors (stackers etc). with...

    Presoak, Hot, Cold. What works?

    I used to use Kleenrite's Inbay Presoak. It was good. However, it was nowhere near as cost effective as Simoniz Correct with 1/3 of a 5 gallon pail of Simoniz foam additive.
