My new SoftGloss

I am out about $113,000 for ENTIRE thing. My own dryers & paystation, everything else was from Ryko (except the modifications to front / rear of bay). I added about 4' on each end, to accommodate duallies.

Coach,

Looks good! Just FYI in your picture you have a white Jeep in there and I hope your machine works better than mine but I find that most of the time the rear brush hangs up on their spare tire if the tire doesn't have a cover on it. I have a sign that says no vehicles with uncovered spare tires. Did you have or have you had an issue with vehicles like that?
 
Would you mind giving detail on your pre wash prep. I want to raise the price of my IBA's and add a guy doing something to clean wheels. Thanks.
 
We pre wash in other bay (OHD Touchless). I inherited that scheme, & NO WAY I can change it. This entire town likes that guy , tips VERY well & expects hm therr every day. He sprays pre-Soak on tires, grill etc, then foam brushes while thing theb rinse. So, basically clean b4 gling into OHD Touchless.
I haven't had a shut down cause of Jeep tires yet. There have been a few bugs to work out, & Ryko fixes em each time. Biggest issue is parts of back of car don't get cleaned real well. Recessed plates, under the over hang, & sometimes areas in middle back.
 
I have the issues with " back of car don't get cleaned real well. Recessed plates, under the over hang, & sometimes areas in middle back" Any other machines that clean those areas well?
 
Autec has an option that is called something like "rear clean" and does a really good job on the back and up under rear spoilers.
 
Ryko needs to re-engineer the rear arms the same way the Oasis BayWash I5 is so they contour to the vehicles shape not just have longer brushes that eventually get torn out. Unfortunately, Oasis or Sonny's Patented that design so Ryko would have to reinvent the wheel on this concept.
 
Better because of the brush control you have on the UCC and you can program it for multiple passes if needed, I will be making a new video of it in action in the next few days I will post it once it's completed.
