I just wanted to add something about Triple Foam, since it was discussed earlier in this thread. For those who think TF is a "do without," we ran 101 cars through our Profile yesterday and 79 bought the top wash with the Triple Foam. It blew me away. We've never had a percentage of top wash purchases that high. We normally get 60-65% buying the top wash; so this was amazing. People really do love the Triple Foam. It's a money-maker.

Thanks for sharing that info. Your car volume is outstanding!

Thank you. Yesterday was our first full day open since the "Big Freeze" here in TX. It took 3 days to fix broken pipes and the equipment. We were getting calls every day from folks asking "when will you be open?" I was encouraged by their support; and bummed out that we couldn't open sooner.

101 cars in 1 day is crazy good. At 7:10 avg that puts you prollybdoing about 7/hr for 12 hrs, then about 20 late night early morning...

Inwas figuring on our SoftGloss, that I cpuld run nearly 50% more cars through, for only $2 less, & make more money on super busy days w/ the middle $10 pkg...🤔

I believe you're exactly right about the 7 per hr. That's what I've figured in the past based on our wash times. Every time we've tried to speed up the process, we've had problems with the quality of the wash. Will be interesting to see what happens when we put in the Razor, since it is basically a faster machine.

Wow. That is awesome. Our top number was 117, which happened a couple of years ago in March. Hasn't happened since.

SW Indiana melon fields.
I figured they ran non-stop for about 20 hours. I actually got a call at 2:30 AM that one of them went down. When I got there that morning, the broken one had washed 195, the other 196. That led me to believe they finally petered out at about that time. Not long after that, we added a 3rd auto. They best day with three, was 456.
