    Trigger Gun

    It will work as long as your bypass from the unloader valve isn't plumbed back into the inlet of the pump. if so, re route it back to the storage tank and you can use the non weep.

    Bad News for us all!

    It definitely is, and our wash counts the last 2 months reflect it.

    Help with injector

    Have you checked the high pressure check valves on your manifold? You have 2 checks valves, one for each pump that leads from the outlet of the pump to the manifold. If one of them is bad, pressure will bleed off to the other side and you lose water volume therefore reducing suction at the injector.

    City just told me I can't use salt in my softener. Options?

    I would think last nights tacos with hot sauce would degrade the water more than salt.

    Looking for someone to install a used laser wash

    They haven't ended support. What is ending is availability of certain proprietary parts. But there are probably enough used 4000 parts out there. Unless they work like we do. We take units straight to the scrap yard when we replace them.

    T handle security enhancements

    I had a lot of faith in our LAI locks until last week. Watched a guy get into 3 of our vaults in less than 15 seconds. What made me sick to my stomach was the fact that we had this same guy locked up this past April for doing the exact same thing. He served a whopping 60 days and was released...

    Facebook Pages for Car Washes?

    We have had disgruntled ex-employees go on and give us a 5 star review but then on the comment make some derogatory remarks that they try and mask with the 5 stars Keeping up with both is almost a fulltime job on its own. Social media is mostly diarrhea of the mouth

    Paint inside Self Serve Bays

    You can buy the most expensive paint on the market, and it won't hold up if repainting. We have tried them all. We used 2 part epoxy and it didn't hold up, Sherwin Williams rep told us that we didn't prep correctly and needed to sand blast. Next job we sand blasted all the walls, primed and...

    Convert my full service to an express wash? Market for full service washes?

    We went cold turkey on a location we acquired and pissed everyone off and business suffered. We figured with the new equipment and remodel, customers would see the difference and accept the change. Wrong, we figured out really quickly that most of the full service customers are all repeat...

    Touchless Front & Rear Eyebrow removal

    Chemical companies are having issues cleaning road grime and if they tell you otherwise then they are lying. Something has changed in the past couple years that is making it very difficult to clean in a touchfree. Of course, we are not having any issues at our friction sites for obvious reasons.

    Should I lease a new IBA system?

    As a new car wash owner, it will be very difficult for you to obtain a lease. Most companies want at least 2 years of prior experience as a car wash owner.
