Thank you for the update Slash007. Interesting about Coinless. I really hope Everwash picks up support and will continue to develop the app. We've been using it since September 2022, and usage has increased exponentially. 14% of our customers now use it and love it!! :love:

I have a very clean & modern 5-bay SS. From 2020 - 2023, my wash prices were $3 for 5 minutes. When the dirty and poorly maintained SS car wash up the street from me raised their prices to match mine late 2023, I quickly raised my prices to $4 for 5 minutes. I kept the same time, to not mess...

HeyVern, do you use the Blendco in your SS wash? I use Blendco's Super Shield in my SS and customers have been very impressed with the shine & durability. I just called my Blendco rep and he said the Foaming Ceramic is a great product but 2-3x the cost of the Super Shield.

When I was researching a mobile payment app for my 5-bay, 5-vacuum SS wash in 2022, I called Beacon, PayRange, Touch4Wash, Washcard. You can search this Forum by my name and read more details, or send me a PM. Here's a quick summary... I ended up going with Coinless and have been quite happy...

I have a 5-column Little Tree door, in great shape. When we replaced the LED display to the LARGER DIGIMAX style, I replaced the door with the LARGER display window. Door measures 38 1/2" High x 21" Wide. LED Display window measures 3/4" High x 1 7/8" Wide If you can use, please message...

I've tried glue (JB Weld, plastic formula) but then it made it difficult to replace the nozzle down the road. Now I use a 3" long, narrow machine screw (10-24 with a cap nut). Drill through the cuff & hose. Insert screw & tighten cap nut. You can also use a little Loc-Tite (removable style).

Oooh, I like that idea Randy! (y) What kind of material is your pre-filter made of? :unsure: I'll Google it to and try to find something pre-made.

Hi Earl, not sure who your question was addressed to? I have 5 vacuums.

Drug activity. Unfortunately, I've got a drug house 2 doors down from my car wash & police are hesitant to do anything about it! 😖

I wanted to give an update on buying 5 new vacuums... I looked at IVS, JE Adams and Doyle. IVS and JE Adams use the 4 vertical sock filters, while Doyle uses 2 pleated filters (like a shop vacuum). I called Doyle's customer references and they were very positive! I would rather clean 10...

New Car

Sadly some people just don't care. I'm in Northern California where the eclipse was about 20% and still cool to watch. I was at my car wash, excitedly wearing my eclipse glasses, and sharing them with customers!! Next total eclipse is in 20 years - 2044!!

No, I got a waiver too. I put together a Recycling Plan for the city, showing how we recycle each of the items. I have a dedicated guy who has a key to my dumpster and removes the bottles and cans 3x/week. The city inspected my dumpster and approved it! I personally recycle clean cardboard...

Wow, I wish running a car wash was as simple as cleaning and repairing! 😜 My SS car wash is open 24 hours and located on a very busy corner. I've owned it for 21 years now, and it's busier than ever! I have 2 employees who help me clean and handle minor repairs. This is my assessment of my...

Hi Rudy, sounds great! Would you be willing to post a photo?
