CONCLUSIONS

• BY OPERATING BOTH TYPES OF AUTOMATICS
• YOUR CAR WASH BUSINESS HAS THE POTENTIAL
• TO DOUBLE THE INCOME YOU WOULD HAVE
• REALIZED BY OPERATING ONLY ONE TYPE.
• IN ADDITION
• BECAUSE YOUR SITE HAS FRICTION AND TOUCH FREE
• AUTOMATICS, CUSTOMERS WILL HAVE NO
• NEED TO VISIT COMPETITIVE SITES WHICH
• OFFER A WASH TYPE YOU DONT HAVE.
