i have aluminum skinned insulated doors with mechanical operators. my suggestion with this type of door is to locate the operator in a dry area and couple the shaft to the door (jackshaft style). doors are great but they are another piece of equipment with many moving parts. I keep mine...

what about other ideas like your equipment salesman or soap guy or competing wash or competing lube shop?

we put a d.i.y. prep bucket out. a 55 gal barrel, filled 1/3 of the way and a wash brush on a pole. i got the idea from soapy and it is a good 'spiff' for customers. yes, they will expect it always so be sure it is right for you. we also offer a free towel dry station at exit of carwash for...

update: I cleaned the old grease from the gantry where trolley wheels ride on in/out. also lubed the chaseway pipe for hoses and cables where it meets top of gantry. has been washing fine with no overload since.

if you have gantry motor/gearbox and pump that applies presoak on one breaker, you have to isolate each one and like cfcw says test the amp draw for each one. check the simple things first; is there adequate gear oil in the gearbox? could be a bad wire connection inside motor. could be...

in/out motor on sidetrac 700 stops about halfway out. shows error:'OL3' on screen of omron syndrive. can be reset and run fine awhile. i can sometimes duplicatethe error when in manual mode but not every time. seems to fault in the same spot. motor and gearbox was new this summer and i...

it got exasperating for me this week working on the broken 700 (superior side trac). had a couple different problems relating to sensors, motors and wiring. machine is running now but still in the testing phase after repairs. still need to replace a turck field connector straight with right...

just delete the comments and move on. forget about it and focus your energy where it belongs. what good is going to do to crawl around in the muck with a former employee? many people use fb or internet as a way to complain and many times it's just tough talk; nothing more. 5 minutes spent on...

the wire colors are as follows: black, white, red, yellow, green and green w/yellow stripe. please advise; thanks!

Offer a discount on bulk (20 or more?) deluxe wash only (or whatever you call your top pkg). only give away washes to your best customers. For me, that's seldom been a dealership.

I wouldn't advise a partnership because I had a bad experience with a partner. Do what Bud A said.

Dryer Pros. My blowers from them are awesome.

tell them 'it's up to you'. 'to rinse it off is $3. to use all functions and do a really nice job is $6-9.'

who cares what the salesman thinks.? it's your name on the bank note. just go to the wash and talk to the owner or manager. offer to work for free. mix it up/weekdays and weekends.morning/afternoon/evening. this isn't like investing in a passive income stream business. it's alot more...

I buy everything from kleen rite and have for years. i like: kr super kleen powder, simoniz foam additive, kr low ph pink foam polish, kr kleen seal w/teflon.

i would rather see a whole section of this website devoted to " I wanna Buy/build a Wash'. For any business you need experience if possible. Working at a car wash/lube/detail/car lot biz is the way to go. Get a feel for the customers, equipment, chemicals, msds, daily accounting, money...
