Washed Up Car Wash: Seffner Site (Outside Perspective)

Special thanks to Frank Orobello for letting me tour this facility and letting me film both outside and inside
Washed Up Seffner is considered one of the only express tunnels in the entire area, and is one of the best I’ve visited. The property is fairly large and square, which made room for 3 ICS pay stations, a 120’ wash tunnel, and free vacuum stations (number of vacuums is unknown).
The wash tunnel uses all MacNeil equipment. It is equipped with 3 top brushes, 2 sets of rocker brushes, 1 set of van brushes, a pair of wheel boss and gloss boss machines, and a 4 producer AeroDry drying system. Hot carnauba wax and lava bath are applied via MacNeil AquaFoamers mounted to VersaTrans arches which also have LED lights pointed down. Unlike their Brandon location, wheel cleaning is done via MacNeil wheel-rite applicators at the entrance followed by Wheel Boss units which is followed by a set of Magnum wheel blasters. Triple foam in this tunnel is applied in the middle of the tunnel right before the wrap arounds. A MacNeil Magnum arch blasts the car with HP right after being waxed, however during my visit, the arch was turning on at the back of the vehicle, and even after the vehicle passed the arch. The wash material is also light blue and black, which is different from their Brandon location which has darker blue and black pattern brushes.
The chemicals that are used in this tunnel are from Stinger.
Wash results: excellent cleaning, with no real complaints. Wheels came out great, and the drying was average.
Overall, Washed Up is an extremely well ran facility, with extremely nice staff. I’m looking forward to visiting their Brandon site along with their other 3 planned locations.

Those Belanger dryers were very strong and did very well. Though I am not a fan of their soft cloth tunnels. I spent $14 on the top wash. We got a 2-day expiration coupon. So 2 days later, went back, and our vehicle still wasn’t clean

Looks like a good car wash. Wiggy wash uses those same top brushes (the evolution ones). That owner was really nice to let you film both outside and inside. Anyways keep up with the good vids King.

Could you revisit this site, or has not much changed about it?

[@cyrparlapiano2514]

Timing on the hp arch at the end was way off

[@bemblake6390]

Did that have a Macneil/Kesseltronics PBS 4000 at the entrance or did they use tunnel master/wash connect by ICS?

[@FloridasExpressCarWashes]

This car wash is only using ICS as their POS systems. They are currently using an rTC controller from Laguna Industries, with a PBS-4000.

[@bemblake6390]

@@FloridasExpressCarWashes thanks. The car wash I work at operates the same way. I was nust looking it they has a different setup with a controller yet I havent seen anything about a macneil tunnel using a tunnel master? Do yoh remember where they plaxed their PBS-4000?

Una excelente instalación .Desde mi punto de vista como profesional sobra que el personal antes de meter el vehículo repase el mismo con un escobon.Nosotros antes de meter el coche le damos con la pistola a presión .Es muy fácil rayar la pintura con el escobon dependiendo de la suciedad que traiga el vehículo.No obstante os felicito por lo bien cuidada que tenéis vuestra instalacion. Saludos desde Barcelona.

Espanol: ¡Gracias! De hecho, no participé en esta instalación. Acabo de recorrer esta instalación y grabarla en video, ¡aunque esta sigue siendo una gran instalación! Como alguien a quien se le ha enseñado a preparar autos, puedo estar de acuerdo con su opinión. Si tuviera que preparar manualmente el vehículo, yo diría que use una pistola de alta presión seguida de un fregado con un cepillo para cerdas. Los cepillos de nylon (como el que se muestra en el video) no son realmente el cepillo más seguro. Sin embargo, en mi opinión, no me prepararía manualmente. Aprecio tu comentario, no obstante, y que tengas un gran día :) English: Thank you! I actually didn’t take part in this installation. I just got tour this facility and videotape it, though this still is a great install! As someone who has been taught how to prep cars, I can agree with your take on it. If you were to manually prep the vehicle, I would say use a high pressure gun followed by a scrubbing using a hogs hair brush. Nylon brushes (like the one shown in the video) aren’t really the safest brush. However, in my opinion, I wouldn’t manually prep at all. I appreciate your comment nonetheless, and have a great day :)
