up contaminants and illness from recharging<br />
point handles. The campaign follows research<br />

deployments of this model increased by 28%<br />

why the FLEX5 is the most popular ISTOBAL<br />

retail car washes and C-Stores alike.<br />
In the 5-brush configuration, the machine is<br />
particularly preferred due to its speed and<br />
wash quality.<br />
