    New to 2 stepping

    If you buy enough at on time it makes a long trip worth it. I've found that ZEP is way over priced. The products I buy are about $6 gal. Zep charges $11-$12 ga.

    How do you make money cleaning hoods?

    I had a lady contact me today about getting into the exhuast hood cleaning business. She has 2 years experience in the business. So she's telling me about having 3 workers and her doing a job and I'm thinking $1200 to do the job. Then I ask what about an average price she says about $300. So...

    Burner problems

    I'm getting no spark on my ignitor. The fan blows and fuel squirts out but it won't lite. I pulled the burner unit out(fan, ignitor, fuel injector) and fired up my p/w. The fan would blow and I could see it squirt fuel but it wouldn't lite. I cleaned the electrodes and adjusted them...

    Will this work for 2 stepping

    I brushed a grain hauler last weekend in 100 heat because my supposed touchless cleaner didn't do the trick. So I've read all I can find on two step process and I think maybe I have it. This is what I think I'll try. The soap I have now contains Sodium Hydroxide and Glycol Ethers. It does...

    Changing my name.

    I currently call my business "Kelly's Mobile Wash." I started using the name when I first started because I was just washing trucks. Now I want to expand my business into other areas, decks, houses, etc. Does anybody have any suggestions or does my current name sound good enough?

    Repairing my pump.

    I'm trying to repair my pump. It's leaking water into the oil and won't hold pressure. I ordered a repair kit and they sent me a bag of O rings so I thought "easy as pie." Took the head off and saw which piston was leaking water. Again, I thought "easy as pie." Well I don't have O rings...

    cleaner ratio

    I'm an idiot. My injector will go all the way to 328 to 1. My brain wasn't working right when I was looking at it. I mixed it 20 to 1 and it cleaned real well (or so I thought) but then it left a bunch of soap residue. It just seemed like it didn't want to rinse off. I don't know if it was...

    cleaner ratio

    I purchased some truck cleaner and the ratio for using is 5-8oz per gallon. The lowest I can set my downstream injector is 8 to 1. So my thinking is dilute the cleaner to 3 to 1 then run it through my injector at 8 to 1. That should give me a little more than 5oz per gallon. Does this sound...
