    Finder's fees

    I agree. 25% is way too high. For referrals, I usually will do one of two things. I'll give a discount on the next service, or throw in an extra for free, such as the gutters, driveway, or something small. (I do mostly residential work.) Another thing that works well is to partner with a...

    Dryvit (Stucco) buildings...

    I was recently asked to give an estimate for a house that is half brick, half dryvit. I've never done that surface before and I'm a little nervous about it. I don't want to use too much pressure. So are you suggesting more chem/less pressure for this? How much pressure on this surface is too...

    Castrol Superclean... is that something that can be put through the injector or do you have to apply it seperately? (I am putting in a bid to do an Arby's parking lot tomorrow)

    Bid Sheets Please!?!?

    I concur. Actually, I had mine professionally made by Nebs.com, with my logo and information preprinted. They are triplicate forms and a lot more professional looking. They were not very expensive, and well worth the money. They pay for themselves if they get you just one more job out of 500...

    Negotiate Price in a Pinch?

    Nice job! PressureForce - Great advice! All my first jobs were free (well most were going to be, but then some insisted on paying afterward). Offering to do some free jobs at first is a great move. You get experience, start your word-of-mouth advertising, and gain confidence. I agree...

    Any Suggestions on Washing Cedar Siding?

    I've never done it, but from what I hear, wear as much protective clothing/rain gear as possible.. You're going to get a lot of wood fibers all over you. I don't do those kinds of houses at this point.

    Looking for Chemical Injector

    Hey everyone... I'm looking for a chemical injector that runs at 20:1. I've looked all over the web but I'm not having much luck. Does anyone know where I can find one? My machine runs at 3700 PSI 4.0 GPM. Thanks!

    Chemical Dilution Ratio

    No. The Troy-Bilt unit is equipped with a downstream injector. All I'm asking here is if someone on this board has the same unit and if they do, do they know what ratio the factory-supplied chemical injector runs at.

    Chemical Dilution Ratio

    No, it's the injector that came on the machine. I'm asking if anyone has this same unit that knows what the ratio is. It's not in the factory documentation.

    Conversion Ratio

    By the way, there is no formula. you just divide. i.e. 1 in 25 or 1/25 Divide the 25 into the 1 and you get .04 (4%)
