Indoor Car Wash

[pampos]

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:

look at some of Auto Concierge's posts...his detail threads and stuff...I believe he uses a wash mat of sorts. Kinda cool.

Not clear exactly what your limitations are. However, I frequently wash my car in my garage using ONR and it gets very little water on the floor. What does get on the floor is easily pushed out the door with a few swipes with a floor squeegee.

This may not be an option if you had REALLY FILTHY vehicles. say off road 4X4s for example.

ONR wash it is not a problem....as you said the problem is the really dirty cars....
I want to be ready just in case that i am going to wash 10 cars/day for example.....

ONR for sure, and take the cars out back for a PW wash with a mat connected to a water reclaim setup...pricey, but if you have a shop with no drainage system, its a must!

or you can have your shop constructed to have a sediment trap and a drain installed wherever you plan on doing the washings (thats what I would have installed)

the building it is ready(it is an old warehouse) and i cannot do anything to ''destroy'' it because i am going to rent it....I have to keep the water/dirt inside and install also a mechanism that it will take the water out to a tank.....

any drains in the floor at all? most warehouses around here all have drains. Seriously I can tell you this if your gonna rent a shop or building the first must is a drain. otherwise you'll be kicking yourself later. trust me! I put 3 drains in my place for under 3 grand.

There are are no drains at all and i dont know if i can put any of them..I am thinking of buying a water vacuum with a hose, that it will vacuum the water from the place....
i will see of course if there is possibility to add some drains
Thanks for the advice
