    Best Offboard dryers

    Maybe consider a Ryko OHD? I have them and originally thought about replacing them with a 6x15hp Premier setup but in the end decided to run them longer. I get a consistently dryer car than any of my competitors.

    Dencar Scanner Issue - Anyone Else having this issue

    I’ve had 4 for about 2 years. I’ve never had a scanner issue . That’s strange because I feel their customer and tech support is probably the best I’ve experienced in this industry everything else works? Is this your only one ?

    Gross Revenue Per Bay

    Looking for a Mobile App for Self Serve and IBA

    I might have to revisit Touch4Wash. I didn't realize that the customers can activate the wash without the app. I've been a WashCard customer for YEARS. GREAT COMPANY and the service and equipment is TOP NOTCH. With that said, you are going to pay DEARLY in terms of equipment costs and...

    Looking for a Mobile App for Self Serve and IBA

    Touch4Wash looks good. I like the appearance of Coinless better. In the end I'm felling like the risk of attaching yourself to these small companies that either go out of business or get bought out, while paying damn near 10% of your gross to them, just isn't worth it. I create loyalty by...

    Looking at leasing my first car was. Thoughts, opinions, advice?

    The issue you're gonna struggle with is all the money you dump into that building is going to be considered "leasehold improvements "and usually stay with the building. I own car washes as a hobby but my main passion is commercial real estate. And even if you were to put into the lease that the...

    Do not lease. Either attempt to buy the property or walk away.

    Looking for a Mobile App for Self Serve and IBA

    Does anyone know what is going on with the company? Was Coinless bought out? Closed up shop ? Disappointing since it seemed like it was a nicely designed app.

    Best Dryer Configuration

    I have the Thrust Pros too. It's not really a fair comparison because as you know, that center trunk comes down and hovers over the vehicle about one to 2 inches. With that said I'm still running mine and it's hard to spend $60-$90,000 on a new dryer set up which will perform worse
