what directories are you submitting to ?

SM is a joke, dont waste your time with them. 3 other contractors pay the same price for the same leads. Resort to other forms of marketing. I did land a few decent jobs with service magic, but the rest was worth my time to continue with the service. make sure you have a web presence .

its always great to hear companies experiencing growth in the down market. keep up your work and dont forget to share your success secrets.

what happened to the good old days when a gallon of water was still more expensive than a gallon of gas?

yea it happens... every new guy that post is a hack trying to undercut the biz.

please check the gallery on my site also... a few nice pics also.

Actually, I am a legit company. Actually I am bonded, insured, workmans comp, licensed in NYC, and 3 other counties surrouding it. Actually, I have a 2 Mil insurance policy, prolly more than most of you guys on here. My Website is www.perfectocorp.com Anything else I can answer for guys who have doubts? Thanks.

It came with the Chemical tip. I need a reliable source for parts and accessories as i bought this machine from HD. So there isnt anything i should add to this machine right?

First off, great site very informative. 2nd, I am not a PW contractor, I am residential/lite commerical contractor. Only PW a few times a year, mostly paint prep for exterior painting, ocasional deck wash, vinyl. .... My Equipment (nothing like the pros here) Dewalt 3800 PSI 14Hp with Cat67dx pump. 4gpm Stock hose, wands, tips. Questions: 1) Hardly ever needed, But would like a 100' foot hose, would it be better to buy a separate hose or keep a spare 50 around and join it (is that even possibile? 2) I'll Try the Downstreaming now, but where do i get the tips from? And is there any additional components i should have on my pump? I see talk about ballvales...injectors. etc... 3) Stock gun ok or should that be changes? Basically, I want to maximize my machine to the best i can, to be able to shoot chemicals. Thanks

You can use the 160, but you cant breathe off of the compressor. Clemo sells an ambient air pump used to supply air to respirators. If you do want to breathe off the compressor, then you need atleast a 185 I am using a Sullivan 210 CFM. Before i bought my blasting equipment i already purchased an ambient air pump, which i will sell (interested?) Rich

Hi, I am new to the forum and have a few questions. (Posted this on PWN also) I am currently in the process of purchasing in Soda/Sand blasting equipment, the whole works, pot, compressor, and safety equipment. Etc... My equipment is capable of using just about and type of media and has a water attachment. I read a few post on this site where soda were used in graffiti removal. 1) Do you think soda blasting with my equipment is cost effective, efficient method of graffiti removal? Although I don’t plan to specialize in graffiti removal, I would like to know what my equipment is capable of doing, and what additional areas I should target in my marketing. 2) In the power washing field, what areas do you think can possibly benefit using my equipment? I don’t feel abrasive blasting is applicable to many areas of the power washing field, power washing definitely has pros and cons over blasting. In a nutshell, I would like to know what areas in the power-washing field could benefit from sand/soda blasting. Thanks for your time. Rich
