I have a General Pump, ts2021, Tseries 47 that has sprung a leak at a plug in the manifold. The plug has a hex head and goes through a washer before entering the manifold. I got to the General Pump website where I got a parts explosion and a parts list. The list describes the washer as ' washer...

I have a Karcher hds3205 BE unit that I want to get parts for but can't seem to locate a supplier online. Karcher got into the portable homeowner type units big time and a search on ' Karcher parts' dumps out a bunch of useless suppliers. It is interesting that some of them offer owner manuals...

Tilex is made just for that. Just spray it on like it says on the bottle.

Given 1 hour how many square feet can you surface clean concrete that has 10% grease and the rest normal traffic and weather dirt. You have to control the runoff and use hydrocarbon booms to block the oil. You have a 24 inch surface cleaner, hot water at 3400 psi. The rinse water will be...

What is the right process? I have a building of 39000 square feet. The floor has been power washed several times and looks clean. When the floor gets wet it becomes slick because oil migrates from below. I have hot water/steam, 3400 psi, 5.4 gpm. A supplier suggests spraying a butyl degreaser...

Sodium hydroxide roof cleaner I don't want to ruin someone's business but the sh based cleaner I used was a commercially advertised roof cleaner that I purchased online in order to try. I've been digging around to find the source of my info about sh dissolving asphalt and haven't found it yet...

Sodium hydroxide roof cleaner I have tried the sodium hydroxide cleaner and thought that it was doing a great job when I saw the runoff all brown and nasty. Further investigation told me that sodium hydroxide dissolves asphalt. I concluded that the brown runoff was the dissolved asphalt from...

Does anyone have experience with stripping paint that has failed to adhere to the surface in places. I got wind of a company that has 127 mobile generators that have failed paint. They so far plan to sand the units manually. I thought I read somewhere that pw could do it. This surface is heavy...

Things are tight but why waste money on long distance calls when you have initiated correspondence via email. The request was simply for contact info of the local distributor. Remember that 3 prior email attempts were made before a response was made. Furthermore when setting up a supplier I need...

I wanted to check prices and availability of Rekrete so that I could prepare for a sales pitch to a very large potential customer after I was given a lead by one of their managers. I contacted Rekrete sales via email using the address supplied from one of their many websites. I asked for the...

Reclaiming auto washwater Why do you have to reclaim automobile wash water? It should be equal to a rain incident -- shouldn't it? Of course if you are employing some obnoxious chemical that would need to be considered, but that is unlikely for a car wash. :rolleyes:

:rolleyes: I thought that it was against the rules to sell on this forum? It's labels not lables. Better get the spelling right on those 10,000. You can too print from MSWord onto labels.

You sound like my kind of power washer. Tell me more about the marketing. I think I can cover the rest once I stir up enough business. What kind of marketing budget do you allow. I get the gist of the quality sells part but how did you get it rolling initially? :)

Tell me your recipe for success. [wsmile]

My source indicates that power washers are earning $2000 a week - not gouging and not charity. It makes sense that quite a mess would be left behind by 2 hurricanes. I'm just fishing to see if any of our cohorts can verify the information that I'm hearing.

My neighbor just stopped me to say that an associate of his is in the power washing business and has told him that there is a huge need for mobile power wasgers in the area hit by Katrina. What have you heard?

I don't know what the replies are referring to but I have discovered the ratio that I needed. The x-jet at 5 gpm without an insert has a 2:1 ratio. Thanks for your interest. :)

I just bought an m-jet, adjustable x-jet. How do I gauge my proportion when using the x-jet without inserts? I have a Karcher running 3200 psi at 5.2 gpm. Do I simply drain a 5 gal bucket of water for 15 seconds and see how many gallons of water I've sucked up times 4 then divide that into 5.2...

Did a google search and got a hit. Printed me a parts explosion from a PDF file. Thanks for the suggestion. Yes there is a fuel solenoid right at the pump.

The spray and forget it website states that the rain will finish the job over the next few months. Customers don't want to wait months. How would they know that they got what they've paid for. As far as I know there is no protectant available. The condition will return over time. Copper flashing...
