Indoor Car Wash

Hi guys.....I am going to move at a new shop but the problem(and good thing at the same time) is that i have to wash the cars IN THE SHOP...
So i am looking for something that i can park the car in it and something that i would be able to remove the water because i am going to wash a few cars per day....
ALL POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS ARE WELCOME :thumb::thumb::thumb:

because ONR it is not so swirl free safe wash, especially when cars are covered (up to a point) with mud in winter....
Also i like to use my foam gun : )
Of course ONR wash it is in my choices and i will use it as often as know but because i am going to use often the ''car wash '' service i need something safer....

Re: Indoor Car Wash

Is there a drain in the wash area of the shop?

Re: Indoor Car Wash

They had a really neat set up at one of the shows I went to that collected all of the water so there was no run off... I am sure someone here knows the name of it.

Unfortunately not...it is a ''solid'' flat concrete floor, and i cannot brake the floor to create a drain.....

We used a system like that in Tampa. It worked pretty well.

Re: Indoor Car Wash

I guess I should consider myself lucky when I'm watching the River of White Soap Foam go into the Gutter and down the Street after I use my AG Foam Gun... that I don't need one of these Catch-all Floor Mats.
