Just come to the roundtable, Russ will be having some good prices on them

Yea I like the hydroteks, If you can get a new one, I'd go that way, You buy it used and you take the chance of something being wrong with it. I have a hydrotek, I also got it from Russ at southside, This thing has ran like a tank, Hardly any problems out of it!

That little black thing is a thermal relief valve. Hooking up a downstream injector is fairly simple. If you have one, you can thread quick connects on it. Hook it up where you usually hook your high pressure hose up to. Then quick connect your hose into the DS injector.
The-Power-Washer-Advisor I found that for you. Has some info on downstreaming. Im sure you can find pictures there or here. Or somewhere. Just gotta look!
-
I hate quick connects. more problems to deal with. Things leaking. Replacing O-rings, but also, I dont use alot of diffrent tips, I've tried to eliminate them anywhere I can

No intent , my point was that no one person at the PWNA or even this Coilition are qualified to write a BMp without the local educators and help from some Scientist to determine the problems at hand in there area.BMP are about size and demographics of a city. If this didnt matter we all could accept the same one. Yes some are very similar!!
I agree! :applause: :applause: :applause:

Also, you can order house wash mix from several diffrent vendors. Pressuretek.com , southside equipment, etc. I would scratch the jomax

Greg,
how are you trying to apply the chemicals? with the high pressure injector that is on that machine? I would recommend getting a downstream injector and making your mix a little stronger
-
yea I never call acid, acid. I call it brightener. "Hey you want me to spray acid on your truck!?!" lol....It tends to not scare as many people off. I call chemicals, detergents.
-
why are you applying with a pump up sprayer? I understand you said you didnt have an x-jet but you dont even have a downstream injector? You could downstream and get 30ft with the right nozzles. If you didn't have the right nozzles, you could have stuck a 1/4 hose barb on that sucka!

hot water is necessary for washing houses? and why do you say that?

I've tried Rip It....it was pretty good. I really liked the HD80.

I have a rain suit I bought from meijers. I think it was about 60 bucks for the jacket in the pants and its more like a pvc. In winter I mostly wear coveralls. I also have seal skin socks and gloves. Completley water proof. There pretty high tho. $40 bucks a pair. but worth it when your out in the cold washing trucks. I seen a carhartt rain suit at national workwear. It was all black and really thick pvc. I'm planning on going back and getting one this winter. Look like theyd hold up pretty well. Summer time, i dont wear a rain suit.

I have one tank, with 2 machines running off of it. I have it all hard piped with 2 inch pvc, then its reduced down to 1inch hose right before the pump. I have a strainer on each hose.

nice number to hit in Jan. in New York. Figured it's awfully cold up there to be pressure washing anything!
-
Whered you get it? Spray mart maybe?

Have you met the newest Legacy HD Pump? Meet the GT5635! This is THE alternative for the TS2021.
Keeping with the Legacy HD promise the GT5635 features:
- lower purchasing cost than the TS2021
- a FREE high temperature, long life seals and packing
- and since it is a Legacy your repair parts cost less too.
You save money up front and over the life of pump and keeping you up and running for longer.
- lower purchasing cost than the TS2021

What size tanks are those on there? The one I'm lookin at has a 14ft box on it. I'd really like to find a truck I can carry a 1000+ gallons of water. I seen one somewhere that had 2 525 gallon tanks on there. I thought it was on here.
-
I debating on buying a isuzu NPR. I found one that is a 2004 but it has almost 200k miles on it. Excellent shape. Not absolutley sure on getting it or not. Anyone have one with there tanks setup on it that can send me some pictures?
I'm really looking for something that I can carry around a 1000 gallons of water to a job site with. This one is only rated for 12k. The class3.....:thinking::thinking:

Anyone have any suggestions on removing loose paint? I figured TSP, bleach, hot water? Its on a brick home. She said half was newly paint and she wants that clean. The other half is going to be painted next week. Any input would be appreciated!

yea I have carrage bolts going threw the D rings. They are pretty secure. I ended up putting the 55 beside the hot water unit. And stuck the cold water unit in the back. I think the weight should be distributed pretty evenly. I hope so anyways. I can still access the skid pretty easy. I've got a good amount of space behind it. Thanks for the input guys.
Deck Sanding
in Wood Cleaning & Restoration - Decks, Fences, etc.
Posted · Report reply
We have a deck we stripped and all the stain would not come off. We had alot left on the spindles. We are going to just sand the rest of it off. What is everyone using to sand in between the spindles? Its to small of a space to get a regular orbital sanders in between them and hand sanding will just take forever. Any inpute would be appreciated!
Thanks
