  1. 3. Low surface tension assists with this process.
  2. 7. This type of water decreases the effectiveness of high pH chemistry.
  3. 8. Due to seasonal changes, you will need to use more high pH chemistry when there is an excess of this type of contaminant.
  4. 9. The point in the tunnel when high-pH is ideal.
  5. 10. Excess use of this remover can build up in wraps and affect wash quality.
  6. 11. This is the second step when determining the cause of a wash quality problem.
  7. 13. The location in a foam generator where a tuffy should be first packed before proceeding (using a tool such as a long screw driver.
  8. 15. This type of pad is used in the foam generator body.
  9. 17. Applying too much bug remover can cause a pH imbalance leading to this look on cars.
  10. 18. This type of tension allows a liquid's surface to resist an external force, much like a thin skin or elastic sheet.
  11. 19. This clamp allows access into the foam generator body where pads are packed.
  12. 21. This line mixes with liquid to create foam.
  13. 22. This is used to lubricate vehicle surfaces and increase dwell time of chemistry.
  14. 23. This element of cleaning requires mechanical action from cloths and brushes, as well as pressurized water.
  15. 24. This scale is used to measure how acidic or basic a liquid is, and is indicated by a number from 0 to 14.
  16. 26. This is the third step when determining the cause of a wash quality problem.
  17. 27. This element of cleaning should be addressed last when troubleshooting wash quality issues.
  18. 28. High surface tension helps this process.

  1. 1. This changes seasonally and could affect the other four elements of cleaning a vehicle.
  2. 2. The point in the tunnel when low-pH is ideal.
  3. 3. This occurs when the molecules of one substance are more attracted to each other than they are to a surrounding substance.
  4. 4. This type of surface tension causes water to spread, making it ideal for cleaning.
  5. 5. This element of cleaning addresses the use of city water, RO, and ROR water. (two words)
  6. 6. This element of cleaning deals with how long a chemical application remains on a vehicle as well as conveyor speed.
  7. 12. These apply Unity Chemistry to vehicles.
  8. 13. It is important to do this with high and low pH to continue producing clean, dry, and shiny vehicles.
  9. 14. This is the first step when determining the cause of a wash quality problem.
  10. 16. This line mixes with air to create foam.
  11. 17. This type of water is pure and has been treated by reverse osmosis.
  12. 20. This is the fourth and final step when determining the cause of a wash quality problem.
  13. 25. This type of surface tension causes water to bead, making it ideal for drying.
