Would a tank like this work?
squirtgun replied to PowerPlay's topic in Tools, Equipment & Basic Maintenance
Nathan, Yes a tote tank will work.We had one on our rig before trading with Carolina Pro Wash for 225 leg tank.The biggest concern I have with most totes is the gate valve,often times they a not the highest quality.On most you can replace the valve witha Banjo valve that is muxh most durable and reliable. Make sure you strap the tank down,If I were mounting one in a box truck I would use heavy eye bolts anchored through the floor and 2" rachet straps or have some kind of customer straps made that would allow you the anchor through the floor. Ours was anchor on our rig with u bolts over the bottom of teh basket and through the floor,when I took it off to to give to Roger and Celeste the U bolts were cracking. -
A good place to find Hose reels?

Jeff, I think this place may have the swivel mount reel you were looking for. http://www.powercleansystems.com/index.html?Body=/PowerCleanAccessories.html -
For the first time since they have been keeping records of the Atlantic hurricane season,there is a 22nd storm of the season.This storm is named ALPHA,it's the first time they have run out of names and had to go to the greek alphabet for names.

Best additive or method to prevent window streaking?
squirtgun replied to Lou Beach's question in Residential Pressure Washing
Lou, In the past I have heard of people using cascade. -
Weep holes will usually stop leaking before you are done with an entire house wash.We always to do a final walk around before we pack everything up.Most times the runs can be rinsed clean with garden hose pressure.The trick is to clean the siding without getting water behind it.As stated before and try rinse away from seams and try to avoid rinse at extreme angles. We use the original xjet for most application and rinsing.Ladders and brushes are used where and when needed(windows,sills and frames).90% of the time we use the low pressure tip to put chems on a house,even if that means bringing out an 8' wand or a 24' extension.While I prefer rinsing with the xjet low pressure tip there are times that a 4010 or 8010 are used to rinse.It depends on the amount of dirt,algae and mold present. I used to think the xjet was the end all,beat all solution for house washing.I now know it takes a combination of tools to give the customer a detailed final product.

A family down the street has a Great Pyrenees.In the summer they have him shaved to help keep him cool.You can't help but laugh when you see him after his haircut. -

Judgiing by his weight,he is somebodies pet.He's to healthy looking to be a street dawg.Put up a couple flyers on the grocery stores,I bet someone is looking for him. Please mister don't put the nice doggie on death row. -
Philip, Since you have submitted your bid this may be to late,but here is my $.02 We were asked to just clean the stone work on the church we are bidding.After some serious thought I passed on that idea and let them know cleaning the entire building was the only solution to give the desired outcome they were looking for.It's 120yr old building so it's way over due for a good cleaning from top to bottom. Since your bid is only for the pre-cast,a product like saferestore from eacochem that is safe around glass and aluminum might be what you need.Pre-wetting the brick and windows would/should save you the trouble of masking.I would keep a window scrubber and squeege handy just incase you needed to clean some of the glass. I think the price if fair enough,good luck.

Well thanks Everett,now tell us how you really feel.

Jeff, Why not contact the manufacturer or Steve?The trailer is practically new,I would think that one or the other should offer a solution.It's an avenue I would explore before coming out of my own wallet.

Check Lowes or Home Depot in the paint section.As stated the pin locks are beige in color.

Whisper Wash Maxima 36"
squirtgun replied to Don Phelps's topic in Tools, Equipment & Basic Maintenance
What is Whisper Washes price? $999.00 is what I found on the Mobile System site. -
We have used our twice.It's nice to have when needed,but those occassions are rare. The B.E Supply wand or the one Northern tools sells will fit most applications. http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=6970&langId=-1&productId=200314015&R=200314015&issearch=227024

Mark, Jon Chapman has experience with the gum buster equipment.

Jeff, You might consider moving swapping the location of the tank and skid to make fueling easier. You can build a shelf near the machine and use something like this.You'll still have to remove these to fill. http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=6970&langId=-1&productId=200269574&R=200269574&issearch=19566 Does the rig pull to the right with the tank,machine and hose reels all on one side?

I think this is limestone,but not 100% positive.It on an older brick church(approx. 80-100 yrs) in town we are bidding on.They say it's concrete,but it doesn't have the same look or texture as concrete.
