well I’m officially done. not mixing any more soap. my biggest client (~150 units/month) got bought out and are switching to in-house washing. i’ll wash my other accounts next week with what soap i have left and then send out notice. got an offer to wash locomotives from a house wash client yesterday though lol. might do it once before I sell my equipment just to say I did.

@SurfaceTherapy might be interested in this Harrison.

Got my demo for Old Dominion on Wednesday morning. The only thing I plan on doing that I normally wouldn’t do during a cleaning is to throw a little degreaser on the wheels to make them nice and black.

I stopped in 2 weeks ago and the guy sounded interested in a quote. I sent him an email and a quote but he never opened up the quote, which Joist Pro shows if they do or not. I stopped in again this past Thursday and he said he was waiting for my quote. I explained that his spam filter may have flagged it and I’d send another one. He seemed hesitant about brushless washing so I asked if I could do a demo. He said he’d love to see the quality, I explained I’d be happy to do one as they sell.

So hopefully I get the 60 day cabs (monthly) and the 100+ trailers quarterly.

Have you tried your DS 2 step on the rubber yet ? The 2 step gun makes that rubber black as night with no HCS400

I’ve downstreamed my 2 step and it doesn’t get them black black. Gets them clean but not that black I want for a demo

We’re all rootin for ya George.

You ever get that new injector to see if you can DS with a little more psi? I am heading up to Dultmeier today or tomorrow to get another gun as a back up to the back up.

It amazes me that 625 more psi when applying chems make that much of a difference.

Not yet ,still trying to dial this new Landa in , Rubber scrubbing is done till this coming Thursday so I’ll have time this week to do some more testing George

What you dialing in with the Landa?

Other 2 step gun. Fittin all the hoses and plumbing etc.

Had a guy called from Idaho to see if I could wash his pontoon boat that he bought at an auction. I wouldn’t even know where to begin on how to wash that unless it’s just a complete rinse down

On the bright side, someone’s actually throwing my name out there to clean some stuff that I have no clue who it is

Mostly aluminum right, Well ya already know how to make aluminum shine, Marine paint right, well ya already know how to make paint shine. Ya got this George.
