Spray Nozzles

I know this has been brought up in the past but I'm about to change my nozzles size from 1508 to 1506 and I see other posts saying IMEG is better then MEG style nozzles? reason I use 15 degree nozzles is because we have alot of tall trucks/RV's come in and 25 degree won't reach.

MEG tips are for descaling, which means lots of "cutting" force up close, whereas IMEG maintain the impact from several feet away.

FWIW, I prefer V-spray. It's much safer for the customers to handle.
 
I use the 1506. I didn't know what
MEG meant until now. With our gumbo soil
and such i have always used 1506 and really
like the impact. Not a wide pattern but does a
good job cutting the dirt.

I went to a competitors carwash and he was using 2506 vv tips, I thought that this was better than what I was using (2506 IMEG). After trying the vv tips there is no comparison, the 2506 IMEG is hands down the better tip. I have even tried them a couple of times since then and still prefer the IMEGS. I have never tried the 1506 IMEG tip. And yes the IMEG is better than the regular MEG.
 
CCAR - check the spray pattern difference between the IMEG and the V spray, look close, you'll see a difference. I used to use the IMEGs until I bought a V spray and compared. My observations were that the IMEG had a more oval pattern with the top and bottom edges having more force than the rest of the spray pattern. With the V spray I saw a more even pattern which was flat as opposed to the oval. It appeared the entire pattern had the same force.
