Simpson 3/8-Inch x 50-Foot x 4,500 PSI Dual Braid Hose

DSCF6655DSCF6665

Okay I guess I found these pictures also…. 🙂 Now I understand that everyone doesn’t use quick release fitting…. but I really like them. This product also comes with them! They also haven’t caused me any trouble YET! So that would add at least $10-15 value I believe? I have purchased five of this product and it seems like a great product? I have also purchase a couple “used” ones from amazon? I guess people with karcher pressure washes purchased them? 🙂 Well $50 and free shipping for a Simpson MH5038QC High Pressure Hoseseems like a pretty good deal?

BTW: The first one I purchased was in March 2013 and I am still using it.

Buyers guide to old and new used Coleman oval vacs

I didn’t know there was a difference and now I know why some people complain and hate Coleman oval vacs.  They are comparing about two separate products!  Also I feel bad when I was trying to sell my vacs…. I didn’t tell the buyer the difference.  But I honesty didn’t know. Plus mine are the nice ones. 🙂  He actually purchased the wrong ones and I don’t mean not mine!  LOL  🙂

New style with large one door.

Old style small door…. Where you can not touch the bags.

Greg today helped me with my CWS order. :)

He said the stuff I wanted was basically not that great of an idea.  Also that the aluminum head foam brushes where also a bad idea.  So I keep all the stuff that was sent wrong from carwashsuperstore.com

BTW the lady I emailed accepted blame and said she would send and pickup the stuff.  But they still didn’t have what I wanted and the invoice was changed so her story really makes no since?

Also Greg said he doesn’t order stuff from CWS anymore?  Kleen Rite really has stepped up there game.  I guess Marcus use to use CWS…. but it doesn’t matter.  He probably switched also?

The  blue 212551 Erie plastic 4 1/2″ hogs hair brushes I purchased from CWS.  $52 head only.  🙂

Rowe wins an Innovative Award and not MEI?

I understand that Rowe came out with a new Rowe changer… The Rowe model 400. I also know they didn’t post the manual on there website which is weird?  I watched the video with Tim Kozlik…. I also like him… He seems like a nice guy.  But using the same hopper as an American Changer and MEI recyclers seems not very “innovative”. That bill acceptor would work in my old crusty Rowe that was MDB comparable. 

I might expect to much from Rowe?  I’m just not impressed. The display and sticker don’t help. The sticker actual looks worse then the old ones… I think.

The New England Car Wash Association gave Rowe the award. But the changer has been out a while. The MEI acceptor has been out about 3-4 years I think?  The coin hopper is generic.

Parker Slugbuster Coin Acceptors? Why am I using GinSan Sensortron?

Okay so I acquired some Parker Slugbuster II 2 long drop coin acceptors.  Is there a reason why I shouldn’t use the Slugbuster products?  Are Ginsan Industries Sensortron acceptors better or worse?  Why do all these products look the same as the $20 ebay China coin acceptor?   🙂

The Parker is $30 less for the old Slugbuster I (Old Style)  $108.33.  (They look exactly the same.)

The Slugbuster II quarter only is $107.14.  With tokens also $130.94.

All the Slugbuster II models are less then the Sensortron at $137.75?  What have I done?  🙂

 

What also worries me is in the Kleen-Rite ad for the Sendortron, the info says “with over 100,000 units in service since 1981”.  That I am guessing… means they have sold 100,000?  That doesn’t seem like very many…. so I think I have been purchasing something everyone knows is over priced and other products are better?

Also if you goto parkers slugbuster website:  slugbuster.com  (Which BTW is SO BAD and looks like a phishing web site.  The clip art also is….. WOW!)  They say to fix ANY Slugbuster it cost $65… and a new acceptor has a 2 year warranty?  WTF that site does seem like a scam!  Or to good to be true!  🙂  I think I have to switch to Slugbuster acceptors…. unless they are POS?  I don’t know?  🙂

Arcadian Chemicals Car Wash chemicals in Alabama – arcadianservices.com

The chemical sales lady had the best lime ever when trying to get a hold of me to sell me chemicals.  “Was wondering if you were still in business”….. Nice!  🙂   I mean as a sales person making cold calls from a book of numbers that has not been touched for 5 years.  I know it is annoying… but you should at least act more positive.   🙂

It’s also funny how you can order chemicals from 5 states away and its cheaper then 50 miles away.
