💦 Detailing The Pressure Washer And Pressure Washer Accessory Thread

[cdh027]

I’ve been thinking about something like that, but just for the regular hose. How much is that for the pressure washer hose?

This was the regular hose one. I hate dealing with them and the price seems worth it for less hassle.

Also my Dewalt seems to be hit or miss more. It will work and then stop pressurizing so I have to stop. Drain it. Then usually add some of the oil or whatever they say to store it with over the winter and it will work for awhile the next time I use it but it will start being lame again.

It was $139 from Amazon.

My Ryobi I had for about 10 years blew a bunch of oil on the ground and siezed up. Didnt see the oil until it was too late.

If you have as bad as luck as me you're lucky to get $50 out of it. Good luck lol.

I bought that model on sale for $99 and it died in under 2 years. Good unit while it worked.

Here is my set up. 50ft uber flex hose is a huge upgrade over any hose that comes with any pressure washer. The gun is a must as well. Also got a quick connects which is 100 times easier to deal with that unscrewing hoses. Just makes the whole car wash experience or anything else you use unit for better.

I have a Toro like that and it drives me nuts how loud it is.

 

[pbdevastator]

The loudness of the pressure washer or a lawn mower doesn't bother me. I also know someone who fixes/does maintenance on them, so keeping them going is not an issue. Lost of my neighbors have electric stuff and quite a bit of them have their stuff fry on them in a few years not to mention batteries.

Quick question for you guys. Need to pressure wash my old brick patio. Its pretty nasty and has some darker areas. Rocked a kiddie pool in the corner last summer and the chlorine kept the bricks pretty clean, but my question is what would you all use as a chemical to help the process of getting the crud off the bricks? I dont want to go out there and pour bleach everywhere and nuke the grass, is there a favorite you all use to wash brick at your homes?


Best pic I have to show it :

a quick search shows many different websites using dish soap to clean pavers.

I think a paver specific cleaner is available as well. should not kill the grass.

Rather than just a pressure wash, you may want to use a scrubbing attachment as well.

Yea I was thinking one of those circular attachments that scrub

I was thinking the same thing

I was blowing half inch thick moss off pavers, no scrubbing needed. I think those circular things are subpar. They mostly shield the spray

Get a surface cleaner like mentioned above. You would be able to do it without it, but it makes the job so much faster.

For super stubborn stuff, I agree. After using one, I just started using it as my first pass and hit anything that was left behind with the good ol 15*

Actually those circular things give you a more consistent looking clean..they keep the same height/pressure on the ground so aren’t making one area cleaner than another

So satisfying . We both hit it with my humble 2000 psi electric and while it took forever , it got
The job done .

The darkness is from this mornings dew . Looks pretty clean .
