Rare 1992 Ryko Monarch II-HP Touchfree Car Wash (featuring Car Wash Doctor)

Описание: Located at Sunshine Suds Car Wash in Bradenton, FL

Special shoutout to ‪@Carwashdr‬ who worked tirelessly to bring this machine back to operation after sitting out of service for a while. Please go check out his channel!    / @carwashdr  

As someone who loves a good ol’ vintage machine, seeing this beauty heals an inner part of me. Manufactured in October 1992, this Ryko Monarch still runs like clockwork 33 years later! But getting to this point wasn’t a cakewalk. This machine sat decommissioned for almost 5 years, and during my time seeing this system finally in action and behind the scenes, I’ve seen all the steps it took and all the work put in to resurrect this system. This system utilizes NCS chemistry and only runs on two chemicals: Top Clean X5 and Armor All Ceramic Seal!

This video also marks to first video on my channel to include footage using my brand new camera! I recently acquired a new Canon EOS-R100 camera to capture better photos and videos.
