    Modified Big Guy

    I think some guys have done that already, but here it is one more time if someone is interested to upgrade. I changed the whip hose from 1/4 to 3/8, removed the 1/4 gun and replaced it with straight 3/8 heavy duty ball valve. Installed a swivel on the end. This was not a planned project so I...

    Gums..

    The painted sidewalk is the storefront of the shopping center. Of course, I would never use turbo nozzle on painted surface. The sidewalk on the video is the city sidewalk which is in the front of the property. The city sidewalk is an old and strong concrete that can take the turbo. It has never...

    Gums..

    How do you guys remove aged gums on painted sidewalk? I tried many different ways by changing the tip or reducing the pressure, raising the temp, but they all removed the paint along with the gums. I am starting to think about this steam machine specialized for gums in which I have never...

    Winn-Dixie

    Has anyone done work for Winn-Dixie stores? If yes, do they pay on time? We were subcontracted to sweep 9 stores locally, but some strange things started to happen from the beginning.. I am kinda suspicious about the seriousness of the whole deal.

    plugs going bad..

    What could be causing this? The unloader is K7 and there is no hammer effect, but obviously there is some sort of hammer effect??.. The pressure seems to be normal at the head. I am replacing plugs too often.. Thanks!

    Roof Cleaning in Miami

    I don't see many pics from sunny Miami, so here some for those in the cold :) It might warm you little :).. I prefer the ground guy to water the plants and the grass with 040 tip with the pressure washer. That way he can cover a lot more than regular garden hose sprayer and also stays out of...

    Vacuum Surface cleaner vs water berm

    I would like to hear some opinions about the methods of collecting dirt water. I've seen and talked to contractors who either prefer the vacuum surface cleaner or "berming" the lowest point of a surface and collecting the water with a vacuum hose or similar sucking device. As far as larger flat...

    Time for rebuilt?

    How do you guys determine when it's time to have your water pump rebuilt? I guess the bucket test could be one way, but is there any more dedicated and precise way to determine the condition of the pump? Also how do you determine when the swivel of a surface cleaner needs to be rebuilt? Here's...

    #1 in google & SEO

    I've been reading many threads here about number one pages in google and etc.. Our site is number one with key words "power sweeping florida" which is very hard to be with these particular 3 words. The website has horrible code (SEO wise) and I never had the time to actually work on the SEO...

    weird paint stain

    This is the entrance of a residential complex that we cleaned and the management asked if we could remove a blue paint spill right in the front. The day we did the job, I had some left over caustic which I brushed down on the paint. After short dwell time the blue paint faded out, but as soon as...

    The line between low and high pressure?

    As we speak about low and high pressure treatment, what do you consider low and what high? 3500PSI is surely a high pressure value, 2000PSI is much lower, but IMO is still in the range of high pressure. Do you use the term "low pressure" in terms of flat surface cleaning? Would 2000PSI take out...

    Pump Inlet

    I decided to take out all the manufacturer fittings at the pump inlet since I never use the upstreamer. I am trying to find a brass 1/2 male to 3/4 female, so I can reduce the fittings on the line as much as possible. Anybody knows where I can order online or buy one? Here are some pics for...

    Heat&Turbo VS Paint!!!

    Tonight I decided to fight off the demon paint the hard way: heat & Turbo power. 10 spots done, 19 to go next weekend. That was hell of a workout :)). I started to like it.. For some reason the 5.6GPM machine did better than the 8GPM. Here are some fresh videos with humorous title :)... <object...
