    Painting/sealing walls in a SS

    MEP001 is right. All paints are beholding to the layers under them. You will need to get all the old paint off before you can get any paint to hold up. Just out of curiosity, what type of setup is preventing you from using panels? They are a lot less labor intensive and hold up well.

    Am I wrong to expect RO water

    I wasn't clear. Spot Free was listed as an option on the dial but it didn't work. As far as selling the washes, it was too good an offer to say no. I have been considering buying another wash though. Servicing Car Washes keeps me in the industry but it's just not the same as operating.

    Am I wrong to expect RO water

    So last year I sold all our car washes, moved, failed retirement, and went to work as a service technician repairing car washes. Since I no longer own my own car wash, I went to the local self serve to clean my wife's car on my day off. The self serve just changed hands and the new owner has...

    I'm looking for input on this washworld part (or similar from another mfg)

    The bolt doesn't run through the water channel in the head it has it's own chamber machined into the manifold. On a Razor the two heads are fed by the Flex Arch that runs across the carriage on the back of the machine. If you just want to run the heads then you will have 10 nozzles that...

    I'm looking for input on this washworld part (or similar from another mfg)

    It's part of Wash World's Flex Arch. It can be used for high pressure, low pressure, and Spot Free. It uses V-jet nozzles like the inverted L spray arch. The bolt passes through it and allows you to adjust it's aim.

    Washworld Double Barrel vs. Razor

    The Double Barrel doesn't save water but does create more impingement giving you greater cleaning capabilities. Other things to remember about it are that due to the need to mount the rails 4 inches higher, it requires a higher ceiling than a Razor. It uses a swivel system similar to a G5 to...

    HELP!!! WW Razor Double Barrel

    You could have the bottom 4 inches of the lower arches and lower arch cover cutoff so that it will fit. It should only remove 1 nozzle from each of the two arches

    Seperated Chemicals

    This might work. The head is 3.25 inches but is polypropylene so it might compress enough to get into and out of the opening in a 5 gallon container.

    Pdq laser 4000 roller replacement

    The roller shafts are different for bearing rollers versus greased rollers. Since you have a freestanding dryer I would recommend staying with the greased rollers. They are easier to change. The only advantage to the bearing rollers is that you don't have to grease them, but the bearings can...

    Greasing Washworld Razor - why? Are we still living in the 1950's?

    You can replace all the rollers with the ones PDQ used on it's docking dryers. They require a different shaft and two bearings per roller but do not need to be greased. The tire bearings would simply need to be replaced with sealed grease less bearings with the same specs. While this would...

    Dema Injectors

    If you are just using single barb injectors then I like the Dema better. It can be rebuilt and holds up really well. If you are using dual barb injectors then the hydraflex are easier to install and get the soap lines on.

    Turtle Wax

    They just created some new products last year for touchless that I have had good success with. I'm using HP-640 low pH for the first pass, and AL-10 high pH with ALTP-1200A for the boost on the second pass. It needs a 10 to 15 second dwell after each application on a Laserwash.

    Laser 4000 I/O Modules

    Type in 66356#. Select run diagnostics and select X10 input card. The display will show each of the 8 inputs with either a 0 or a 1. 0's the A-5000 sees as off. 1's are seen as on. If it's seeing the correct inputs as being on and off then the LED's don't matter. They just make it easier for you...

    Spots from ceramic coat

    Ceramic is best applied with low pressure. Higher pressure can cause some of the ceramic to bounce off the car, requiring more ceramic to create an even coat. Plus high pressure uses more water requiring additional product to achieve the correct titration. That said, I agree with Wash shine...
