    Boom came down in middle of pass and hit top of van

    the boom also came down at the correct spot (rear of van) after it came down early. so a sensor is sending a false input to the boom down control.

    Whats it worth?

    sure it sounds decent. worth exploring. can you offer to work there on the weekends to get a feel for the place? can you look at financials?

    Another damage claim

    I would skip having the customer fill out an incident report. At my wash the employee (only) fills out an accident report. Any damage claims that are false are handled by me saying 'i am sorry but the damage could not have occurred here' and walk away. my personal feeling is: i will take...

    Reductions on Waste Water Rate

    if it were me i'd install a sewer meter immediately. the sooner you put it in, the sooner the savings mitigate the expense/hassle you speak of.

    Can Washworld unit do...?

    i think 4 soap passes with all that dwell could only clean better. Doubt they'd experiment too much w/lower priced pkg and compare/contrast. Remember the customer is there for convenience not to do a side by side test. Customers: they want a clean car. they like show and smell too. Some...

    Reductions on Waste Water Rate

    all you can do is ask if they will allow a sewer meter. that is all that makes sense. you have to show them that it makes sense but also somehow allow the sewer meter to become 'their idea'.

    Can Washworld unit do...?

    nah; that's not enough of a pkg to offer at $16. I was thinking 4 soap passes, hp rinse, lava bath w/l.e.d. light, hotwax, hp rinse 2 then spot free.

    Can Washworld unit do...?

    Is a washworld touchfree machine capable of programming a top-tier, super expensive wash package with multiple soap, wax, foam and hp passes? Do you have experience with this? TIA/ Waxman

    Tuff Stuff Best price per can?

    I found Kleenrite has best price on tuff stuff 22 oz., 12 cans per cs. About $3/can cheaper than amazon. WOW. $30.99/cs!!!

    Kleen Track Touchless Soap

    $125 vs $346 isn't pennies. quality is best ever; cars coming out of touchless look buffed. for some liquid may be easier and better, but if you want to talk about fillers, you should mention all the water added to the powdered ingredients which is then shipped motor freight. That's some filler.

    Kleen Track Touchless Soap

    I liked it just fine. my drum cost is $125 with powder vs. $346 for 55 gal drum. (i am 1 chem 2 step). i don't see how you can be at the same cost.

    Kleen Track Touchless Soap

    what is the problem you're having with the powder? I used to use KR in bay presoak liquid and liked it just fine except for the cost. cars come out better now and there is more show and it is less expensive by far. i mix up the powder and it stays mixed till it's gone.

    Reasonable Cost of Soap/Wax per minute?

    this is exactly why i mix up the ss soap now; so i can better afford to crank up the show and cleaning power of everything! the soap i put out now looks like fresh cream going onto the paint and the foamy brush foam is copious to say the least. it could use a better smell though...
