For me, "nice" just means super convenient. Real easy to do a good wash job with minimal time spent doing it. And hopefully minimal mess. So I`d like to see all this in some form of a picture, to hand over to the builder. I can have someone make the picture/plans, but I`ll need a list to give them. So from your post, the list would look something like:
1. Floor drain (with oil separator)
2. Water and air hoses on both sides. Coming from the ceiling for convenience
3. Ten 70 amp outlets on each side (having extra is good here)
4. Florescent and point source lighting (point source means pole mounted lights I can move around?)
5. Nonslip flooring
6. Size... but how big? Maybe 30`x36` would be ideal? Or 40x40? I wonder how much space you really need if you`re gonna have the curtain.
7. A huge shower curtain. (I love this idea. It just sort of closes around the car when you`re spraying stuff... correct?)
8. Plenty of shelving along the walls for storage
9. Heated power washer on a swing arm?
10. Water heater (for power washer I assume?)
11. Washer/dryer
12. Buckets and shelving on both sides for all wash equipment like more buckets and towels, soap, etc
13. Jacks and jackstands (yeah i prefer those too as opposed to lifts)
14. HVAC - (will already have for the workshop area but this car wash may be a different room)
15. Anything else anyone would add? To make the washes go as quickly as possible?
