Treading water...

[gregative]

Hello everyone!!! Had to join the site after reading all the posts. I recently jumped into the pressure washing field after being offered a great opportunity fleet washing tractor trailers. Wow, a huge job! Had enough knowledge to get the job, but I am working way to hard and not smart. My learning curve has been huge but I definetly need outside assistance. I'm holding my head above water with brawn but I need some more brains. There is a lot of good info on here but I NEED to speak w/ some fleet GURU'S!!!!!! I would appreciate anyone's name & phone#'s if you have time but it seems that I might be looking for Larry B, Jarrod, or Scott Stone. If you are they or know who they are please tell them I need help. Tried getting some from my area but am not feeling the love from the locals. In fact, seems like the locals are lazy (I practically had to pull teeth to get equipment & chemicals) while I want to be the best. Any responses would mean more than you understand! Thanks, I really look forward to making some fresh contacts. Greg

I am not by any means a guru but we do a lot of fleets. Post your questions here, there are a lot of great people around. If you need it my number is 919-478-1979

[Scott Stone]

My cell phone is in my signature. I'm not a guru either, but I might be able to help...

Dude who are you trying to kid?

[Ron Musgraves]

I taught Scott everything he knows….Don’t call me about fleets just because my numbers 888-fleetwash

Serious if you call Scott he will help, he will tell you the correct way and save you time and money. I’m sure those other guys are great also, I have not washed a vehicle WOW Since 1992… that might be longer than some have been in the buz.

Scott I cannot see that in your signature, am i the only one?

[Paul Kassander]

I would be happy to help as well. Ron you lucky dog.

[Scott Stone]

No, there is a lot of stuff that I don't know or understand. I just go out and try until I fall into the right way.
Of course, did not have Internet when I started. That was the only way to learn.

Greg,
Feel free to call me as well.

Ron, as you know from having your signature edited at least twice prior to the upgrade, we don't allow banner images in signatures. We haven't for a number of months now. It slows down the database. In this release of VB we have it set so it is not an option. Scott's shows up as a link because it is what is allowed. Everyone sees the same thing in the signature area, and what is allowed or disallowed applies to all TGS members.

I greatly appreciate everyone's quick reply. I will call all of you this weekend if O.K. w/you. If you have hours that I can reach you better at that will be great. Otherwise it will be this weekend after absorbing some A/C. The sun kills me here in FL. Thanks again & will be in touch w/ you soon.

[Scott Stone]

Don't call me on Sunday. Saturday is fine, and remember that we are 3 hours behind you.

[R L S]

No Sunday as well, Saturdays are tough, fleet washing all day. Other than that try your luck.

Thanks again for everyone responding. Sorry took so long to get back on here, had some family problems to resolve. Will be calling people today if still OK. I'm for sure needing help. Neck hurts and am soon going to look like a mini-hulk. I need to get off the brush. Tried some experimental 2stepping with just my pump up sprayer & soap on some wheel rims and test spots on a couple trailers. Had fairly good results without knowing anything about it. Need to know more though. Talk w/ you soon.
