    Painted cinder block wall sealer???

    Maybe you could investigate something like this: http://carwashcoatings.com/index.php There were many washes in CO that were coated when newly built or rehabbed with similar stuff. Don't know if the CO crew is still in business...I'll check with come of my old associates.

    IVS combo vac motors not coming on.

    Because the timer outputs 24volts and the compressor runs on 120volts, it's probably a burned out relay.

    Best Coin Acceptor?

    Microcoin QL hands down. They're in every bay, vacuum, and Laurel vendor. Just one more think you don't have to worry about.

    Advances in internet tracking advertising

    Ya know how when you visit a website, that company’s advertisements show up on other websites that you visit? For example: If I look at Kleen-rite’s website, I get Kleen-rite advertising on most of the news sites that I visit. If I look at golf clubs on Taylormade’s website, I get Taylormade...

    Nu-Wall

    Because they advertise Nu-Wall-2 as "HF Free", I would suspect the original product contains Hydrofluoric Acid. DANGER, WILL ROBINSON!!! HF can do serious bodily harm and can even lead to death if it comes in contact with human tissue. (Don't ask me how I know.)

    "Your machine took my money!"

    During yesterday’s golf game, I received five phone calls from customers reporting that a changer had stolen their $5 bill. One lady called twice…after she saw another customer get change from the machine that just stole her money, she tried again…only to have that $5 bill stolen, too...

    Weather Forecasts

    Over the years: "Weatherman Bowman" stood behind a glass partition drawing pictures and writing backwards so the viewers could read the forecast. "Stormy Rottman" wore green shirts and ties so the green screen appeared on his chest. Channel 9 hired Kathy Sabine. Nobody cared about her...

    In-Bay Lighting Motion Detectors

    My lighting control remodel is about a year old, so I have some observations to share. Since credit cards account for nearly 58% of my bay revenue, one might come to the conclusion that that ratio would hold true 24 hours a day…even when the lights are on. My credit card logs during the past...

    In-Bay Lighting Motion Detectors

    2B I would purchase any "brand name" device from one of the big box stores. They will likely outlast you if you mount them high enough and inside "drip proof" handy boxes. And, if they don't last, you'll have spent only a small amount for the experience. :p Mike, Do you really have a problem...

    My $15 per month internet solution for CryptoPay

    Warning: This issue discusses connection issues with a Windows XP OS. (GASP!) Divert all innocent eyes before continuing. I rushed right over to Wal-Mart and snagged one of those Straight Talk Mobile Hotspots after reading this post. It works like a champ on all of my newer devices…and even...

    wear on prep gun hoses

    Cut 2" "rings" from a length of 3/4" PVC or ABS plastic pipe. Add as many as needed to act as "rollers" for the prep hoses.

    Cat pump 310 vs 5CP2120W

    Gotta agree with I.B. One of my original Cat 530s cratered last year (too light be be a boat anchor). I swapped it with a Arimitsu 516 and am a happy camper...no mods needed to the pump station when using their rail kit! I believe the 310 conversion uses their model 313 and rail kit.

    Free time on self serve bays?

    If memory serves (and that's a BIG IF) an isolation relay from the timer's timed output to the Common position on the rotary switch may solve this issue. But, you've got to have a spare wire or two in the meterbox cable. Another solution worth trying (without the need for additional wires) is...

    Satellite processing for credit cards

    Washing Monsters???

    I see there’s an AutoCareForum banner ad promoting Kleen-rite’s Monster Soap Sale… which leads me to ask a few questions: 1. First cars and trucks, then dog washes and now… monster washes? 2. Is monster soap effective on sea monsters or is it limited to land-based monsters only? 3. When they...
