That trick with the 12-gauge jumper wire on the door lock circuit backfired on me yesterday.

I tried it on a 90s Dover in a Cincinnati office building and it tripped the machine room breaker, which taught me that old solid-state controllers really don't like that kind of shortcut, so what's the proper way to safely bypass for testing on those older units?

Just saw three clients in a row with the same bad toner rinse

Honestly, I keep noticing stylists in my area not rinsing toner long enough. They'll do a quick 30 second rinse and call it good, but that leaves product behind that messes with the final color. I started timing a full 2 minute rinse with cool water about six months ago, and the difference in how long the tone lasts is huge. My clients are coming back with brassiness way less often now. Has anyone else found a sweet spot for rinse time that works for them?
