    From Software to Suds: Eager to buy my first Car Wash!

    3 bulging discs in my neck. Most likely surgery will be in my future, at least for the worst one which is a 7mm herniation. Go to try a 6 month course of epidural steroid injections. Had the first one a few days ago, it made me feel normal again. We'll see if the injections can get the discs...

    Qual Chem chemical

    I tried QC out in my tunnel several years ago. Quality chems for sure, but I couldn't justify the increased cost at the time.

    Buying a car wash

    A facility with a C-store, car wash, detailing and lube grossing less than $1M per year? I don't see how there would be any profit left after expenses. With all those profit centers, it should be grossing 4x that amount. If you can afford to pay for a $4M business, buy an express tunnel...

    Rename your car wash?

    Finding a good name for your car wash is important, but finding one that has an available matching website domain is the trick. I spent a good chunk of time and money trademarking my wash's name when I first opened. Now I'm creating a new brand for the new washes I'm planning, and I won't be...

    Tips on buying first car wash

    Let me guess.... both of you guys stumbled across some youtube videos of SS car washes that showed the owner making tons of money with not much work. Trust me when I say those videos are crap, and it can be a ton of work.

    From Software to Suds: Eager to buy my first Car Wash!

    You were injured and now can't sit at a desk? But you want to start a career path that requires physical work? Seems backwards. Maintaining/repairing car wash equipment is physical work. I know that as I get older, that work only gets more difficult.

    Wanted: Car Wash Manager for Super Shine Car Wash in Phoenix Arizona.

    What type of washes are these? Sounds more like you need a maintenance tech.

    CryptoPay - Move to new owner

    I just did this a few months ago when I sold one of my washes. Seller has to contact Crypto and inform them that you are selling the wash. Crypto sends form to seller to fill out and send back to Crypto. Seller informs Crypto who buyer is, and crypto sends buyer form to fill out. Buyer needs...

    Updating Car wash tunnel

    1000 cars per month won't even pay for the labor to staff the wash. That's a fool's errand. Put in an IBA and get rid of the labor expense.

    New Build - is it really worth it?

    That would be the busiest and highest grossing 4/2 in the world. The equip distributor estimated the $750K number? That should tell you something...

    Touchless Tunnel System

    You're spending too much time on facebook. 99.9% of all the "scratches" that people say are from the car wash are not from the car wash; they just happened to notice them right after getting their car washed. Touchless tunnels never caught on because they don't really work. Too much water and...
