Wolman is pretty simple, just google it since we are not suppose to put things on the board. My other opinion would be don't use olympic if you trying to present yourself as a contractor that uses top notch chems. Unless your a lowes or homedepot guy and present yourself as something less. I...

I had that happen to me a few years ago, the machine just stopped running at first I thought the motor locked up. I removed the pump and the motor ran fine. Let the water run out of the pump put back on, started up and ran for a few seconds than once pressure build up the motor stopped again. I...

Well one reason why some gave you the answer that apparently you did not want to hear is your first statement. I personnel thought it was a full cedar shack siding or cedar panel home. Well now you say it is mostly brick with some cedar transitioning up. Well if your just cleaning off the cedar...

Most strippers, brighteners or stains says temp needs to be above 50 deg. I personally like to stay closer to 60 deg but I have had some clients that just had to have the fence or deck stained. I just let them know what the manufacture of the cleaner or stain recommends in advance so if...

Feel free to email me about this great gutter cleaner. I have 2 that I already use but always willing to check something else out. I can not say what they because of the rules :rolleyes:

I have found in my experience with stucco is low pressure with heat for applying chemical, then put the chemical injector into fresh water tank still using low pressure with nozzle and rinse. The biggest factor though is heat/chemical for the job to turn out right, not high pressure on stucco or...

My suggestion would be buy peachtree or quickbooks pro. I have quickbooks pro for my business, I used some basic paper work last year but for 2006 I purchased this program and for me it has been a big help. Doing estimates is easy, plus you can coustomize them as you want for your business then...

Get a financial program like quickbooks pro for your business, great piece of software to keep track of everything, including estimate sheets that you can coustomize your self for your specific needs. Then if someone chooses you for the job than turn it into an invoice all in one shot.

Listen to Celeste, use HD80 for a stripper if previous stain is applied then follow up with a neutrilizer for brightening, then choose your stain or sealer.

Can u say titan, I luv mine for hauling. Np's at all

I have a friend that has landa hot/cold 3,000psi at 5gpm. His only issue the machine is 7 years old, but he has replace motor 2, pump 3, heat box 1, belt 3, plus in and out for hot water not working. I have heard good things about them besides the price, My buddy's machine could just be a lemon...

I would say no on hot water for roofs or wood. Use the right chems for roofs, sunbrite sells a nice roof cleaner that I personally use and keep your pressure below 300 psi and let the chem do the rest. As for wood just use a good stripper and brightener as needed and also watch your pressure...

Everyones opinion will vary, but I personally do not relie on pressure as much as I do heat and chemical. When I use heat and a low pressure soap nozzle, most of the time I can just put the chemical injector into my fresh water tank and rinse off using low pressure soap nozzle. As for the hard...
