Gum removal

[Maz]

What is a good nozzle for removing gum? I use hot water and have experimented with 15, 0, and turbo nozzle. I am trying to find a more efficient way to remove the gum, and is ther a particular way to direct the nozzle at the gum for faster removal? What is good to remove the stain left behind from some pieces of gum? I am getting ready to clean a strip mall that has a lot of gum.
Thanks!

If you have a hot machine with at least 5 gpm @ 3000 psi any size tip will work fine. The smaller the degree the better. Often we use a 40. That is the tip we like to rinse down the area with. If there is a ton of gum we would use a 15 or 0.

As for the stain, someone had mentioned mineral spirits. Rap a rag around a stick and dip and dab.
