ago and decided to modernize and reno vate it some additional features include heated floors in the winter to prevent icing sophisti- cated high presssure pumps high intensity lighting at night and a separate foam brush one dollar gives the customer a timed wash foam brush rinse and wax when rebuilding the first bay was widened for van and light truck use mr cole thought the laidlaw location was
