The JBS Glowfoam shows extremely well, has a strong cherry scent, doesn't stain, and is very affordable. It is a conditioner not a polish. I highly recommend it for what you are looking for.

Does it have a Virtual Treadle? What software version are you running?

The new friction pieces that were coming into my markets where almost all tunnel washes. None of my locations have enough room to operate a tunnel that could compete with the through put of the new washes. So as soonermajic suggested, I decided to focus on my niche in the market and except...

Brand new stainless steel bridges from PDQ part no. M924020-S. Mine came ready to just install and run. They had new covers, junction boxes, wiring, eyes, proxes, motors, gearboxes, tires, rollers, grease lines, festoon, festoon rollers, and new J2. For the ACW's, I replaced my aging Hamilton...

In 2016 I came to the realization that our fleet of Laserwash 4000's was showing its age and that it was time to reload. I got quotes on both the 360 Plus and Razor. With 9 bays to reload, I got quotes that put the reloads in the 1.2 million range. Once I recovered from the sticker shock...

The helicoptering is usually caused by the Arch rotate eyes not reading the cam. Causes can be a scratch or rub on either x15, x16, or x17. This can happen if there is a lot of play in the gearbox or if the trolley tires are flat. Both will allow the index cam to make contact with the eyes...

After the Arch turned 45 degrees did it continue washing the car or did it give an arch rotate fail and stop?

A Laserwash 4000 should have the high pressure pump set between 1000 psi and 1200 psi in order to get the impingement correct at the vehicles surface for proper cleaning. We run at 1100 psi. For what it's worth we use the Water Saver Valve to reduce the pressure to 400 psi for non cleaning...

Hi Steve, First if the bay is long enough to add the additional arches without interfering with the iba then it would probably fit some form of a tunnel wash system. This would give you the most hourly throughput. Assuming that a tunnel is prohibited by the cost then this would be a viable...

It was explained to me by a chemical rep, that the floor of a car wash is one of the coldest parts of the building unless you have floor heat. Getting the container off the floor helps prevent against freezing in poorly heated equipment rooms and allows warm air to pass around the container...

The short answer is yes RO will clean better.

Thanks Robert, I appreciate the advice and will try to find out more about why the site failed.

Thanks Mac, I hadn't thought of renting the other bays out for detailing. That's a good idea. Oh, the 8 bay is well run and maintained.

So I'm looking at a site that originally had 3 lw4000's and 4 vac islands. All the equipment has been removed. The projected daily car count is 48 cars per day. I was planning on putting in a used lw4000 that I already have and JE Adams vacs that I already have. The question is what to do about...

I've had really good luck with JBS's Compass line.

I use JBS's Compass series. 100 for low pH, 200 for high pH, 201 for boost, 500 for wheel cleaner, 602 for poly sealant, and 700 for foaming polish.

I would think that if it was not separating and turning to jelly that it would be safe to use for a HP Soap. Since it is separating and turning to jelly, you need to think hard about whether you should use it. If you use it, will it gum up the mixing system. will it keep your customers...

JBS and Lustra both offer scents that can be added to products.

I am so tired of Vegas, but I am still going. It is a great chance to get up close to the equipment, ask the engineers questions and to network.
