  1. Try some spray on belt dressing every now and again - stops slippage, noise and conditions the belts at the same time.
  2. Sodium Hypochlorite Prices

    Adrian - where do you get yours at $1.55 per gal? I pay $1.70 from ASAP in Duluth. Rob

  5. Full Time Now!

    Jim Well done I wish I could be so confident to take the leap from P/T. For now I am staying with my job just for the 401K and medical but things are getting tight as they are restricting my earning capability...but I do already feel better about my situation now - I am so close I could go F/T tomorrow if need be. I have been P/T for 3 years now. Rob
  6. Unloaders

    Rus Please tell me why you suggest this? Is it for the K7 only? I have just purchased some ZK1's - for my trailer mounted washer. I also have a 3000psi cold water (faucet fed) Shark mobile unit with a belt driven general pump - can I fit a ZK1 to that unit as well? Rob

    Have you ever heard the phrase... ''If you want to live and thrive let the spider run alive'' ps Black Widows have nothing to do with that saying.

    Like Criag I have had a lot of help from Alan and I really appreciate his input and knowledge. Alan has been a listening post for me and has helped me to get started. Thank You Alan. But now you have given me some sleepless nights since I saw that you clean about 3,800sq ft in an hour - alone.... Please elaborate. Type of job etc. How dirty? How much gum, do you use chemicals - what chemicals? Hot/cold. Clean and Capture? I did get that big job at the school - they cut the job down to almost 90,000 from 122,000 sq ft and I had to reduce my price to a fraction over 6 cents per sq ft. I just bought a new 16" Deublin floor cleaning tool from Steel Eagle and I love it - I also have a 28" Mi-T-M (I use 1502 jets) that has taken a back seat in my arsenal. I am still doing the football stadium and it is slow going - I use my turbo tool for most cleaning as I have to get under the alu seating from the front and the back and then there's the gum (the Turbo is no good on the gum with cold water)- I am only cleaning about 1000 per hour - and its hot out in the South East now What should I do to speed things up? Lastly what is an XJet - I saw half of one at Northern Tool and could not really figure it out - how is it different from my chem jet that was supplied with my 3000 psi belt drive pressure washer? Is it just a chem jet with different orrifices that dilute the chem to different strenghts? How high can I spray chem with it? Rob

    Craig What is your opinion about Clean and Capture? How long have you used it? Can you charge a premium because you are using it? I am investigating getting a Fury 2400 from Steel Eagle. As far as surface cleaners go I have 3 different sizes an 11", a 16"Deublin from Steel Eagle and a 28" from Mi-T-M I would not do any work if I never had the 2 bigger ones. I use a 3000 PSI /4GPM unit and they work great. If I could give advice to any one it would be to check your nozzle / jet size and make sure that the unit is tuned for your pressure washer.
