Stop buying the add ons its a scam and a straight wash does a better job.

Trk and Trl straight wash with a RainX add on, keeps it a hair under $100. That is with van/reefer Trl, when I got the stepdeck it is slightly cheaper. Those add on’s are killer and the reason they press so hard for them is bc the workers get a percentage on every add on they bring in. I like the RainX bc it gets rid of the water spots when drying. They also whack you up on brushing the Trl that’s an extra $10. Plus any kind of tip. Which I normally do if it’s only two workers, I’ve found two/three washers seem to be the best. Six washers tend to miss a bunch of spots, with lots of yelling and lots of walking around with Magic Flash Light. Can’t be spending $125 on a wash and be missing all kinds of spots.

Last week on our ‘Blenders’ went thru the streakin beacon in Odessa, with the ‘degreaser’ add on, it was nearly $800.00 for tractor and trailer.

2 times a year I drop my trailer in the bay and do “TOTAL WASH” no they do not advertise it at beacon. They wash, degrease everything inside frame under the truck, rear ends, front end turn wheels side to side. They wash underside of trailer and suspension. Comes out looking new. In springtime I have all aluminum brightened for polishing. Costs me about $350.00 but it keeps rust at bay and nasty winter chemicals off truck. Winter time
2 times a week wash and rest of year weekly.Speed_Drums, ProfessionalNoticer and bryan21384 Thank this. -
If you hand polish your tanks and wheels, you won't even need to get the citrus, at least in my opinion. It'll give you a longer lasting shine than the citrus will. The beacon really kills with extras. There a couple of truck washes that will include everything and be more detailed got a bit cheaper. Pride Truck Wash charges 70 I think, and I'll make a case for them as one of the best truck washes, especially the location in Knoxville
Final Drive Thanks this.
