Bug Residue Pre-Soak Applicator - Front Bumper
Tommy Bug Spray Bumper Applicator is a crucial addition to the wash entrance, specifically designed to tackle stubborn bug residue on incoming vehicle front bumpers. By applying a targeted pre-soak treatment as early as possible in the wash cycle, this applicator provides the necessary dwell time for specialized bug-zapping detergents to chemically loosen and remove even heavy bug deposits, significantly improving overall cleaning results. This unit is ideal for both new car wash sites and retrofitting existing tunnels.
Installed strategically near the wash entrance and activated by the garage door photo-eye (triggering in succession with Pre-Blast), the Bug Spray Applicator ensures the front bumper is coated with the bug-specific pre-soak for an additional 15-25 seconds before the main wash processes begin. This extended contact time maximizes the chances of effectively removing bug remains. The applicator utilizes two 10E40 nozzles with an injector size of 1.50 GPM and a Versadial setting of 29, operating at a pressure of 40 PSI to deliver targeted coverage. The typical detergent usage is efficient, estimated at just 2-3 mL per car, making this an effective, yet affordable solution. The Bug Spray Bumper Applicator can be used continuously or activated seasonally during peak bug seasons.
