Great Job ! Your a True master in coatings!
Thanks brotha
Hi Chris, excellent tips as always, thank you. I am generally run 3500 psi pressure washers and mostly just for my own personal use. I do remember being told years ago to run a 1 inch hose as you need the volume of water to operate the big pumps, do you find this to be the case? Thanks.
you assist the newbie well. Thankyou.
Glad too
Great Tips
Nice painter m'en... 👍👌🙏 RESPECT
Great video; appreciate your expertise. Unfortunately in NJ our customers are tough ... they want everything for free.
News flash buddy. They want everything for free everywhere not only Jersey
Not true. Its all about advertising and appearance. There's plenty of people who want high quality work and are willing to pay for it. You just need to make sure your the person able to fulfil that want.
@@phillylove7290 hey Philly that's true but what this clown Pete Epstein says he's also correct you get every type of customer. I don't know if you're a gen z a Gen X or a millennial but us old guys that have been in the business for 45 years that's right I'm 65 years old I'm an old fart we've seen it all pal done it and seen it
@@phillylove7290 you sound like a clown so I've blocked you I don't want to hear your pathetic reply
You're kind of act like a clown I've blocked you I don't want to hear anything from you
I try to treat the nozzle of the pressure washer (and a paint spray gun) similar to how I would treat the muzzle of a firearm... same respect for potential injection injuries.
Ceramic rotating nozzle can actually break if you don't start washing the nozzle pointing down.
Sorry I missed you in Atlanta Sir hopefully next time.
Sorry we missed you! We had a great time in Atlanta!
You don't use any type of cleaner??
Not sure why painting your house is in the title though?
I love Chris He is an old school painter you young bucks need to learn. In any way who wants to take advice from some stupid young Punks these days I've been there done that you all don't know shit A real painter knows his shit hes old school just remember quality over production I've Done soft washing And yes I can save you time But when you're painting and you're putting quality in your work that says a lot But whoever goes to negative review go Enjoy your day just remember quality overproduction Quality speaks for itself Trust me Put your heart into it the money will come
Pressure washing your windows is a big no as it’ll void warranty.
I watched the majority of your videos, always great. But as a professional power washer, every single thing you said and did in this video was wrong. Theres so much Im gonna make a list. It was really painful to watch.
1. PSI means nothing, its all advertising. GPM is want you want. More water equals more cleaning. Pressure can be adjusted with the nozzle not the machine.
2. "Pressure Washing" is an outdated term, soft wash is what you want. There is nothing the right chemical cant clean, you don't need pressure to wash a house. Even concrete doesn't require 4000 psi pressure.
3. If you can teach a skill in 5 mins, you not teaching a skill. It took me years to learn to clean and Im still learning every day. We dont let a new guy touch a gun for the first month of working with us.
4. Safety first. Start your machine with two hands. Get a 20$ ball valve to put at the end of your hose and have your hose on the ground with the ball valve open for both starting and stopping your machine. Those machines will break if left on without a release of pressure, so the ball valve is how you idle by taking off the gun and letting the water flow.
5. Organics are 90% of the mess that needs to be cleaned off a house. Mold, Lichen, Mildew, etc. Pressure does nothing to kill these and they will come back in weeks when cleaned without sodium hypochlorite. It will look like its gone to they naked eye but its still there and will spread rapidly again. Sodium hypochlorite is all natural and very easy to use.
6. Property protection. Hearing you only damaged something once in 20 years sound less realistic then someone catching a Unicorn and riding it to work. Tape every electrical outlet, box, and light. Pressurized water at weird angles can get into electrical much easier then you think. Avoid putting pressure on anything at all cost.
7. Oxidization is why you dont use pressure. Uniformly removing oxidization with pressure is near impossible or at very least highly inefficient. It will take forever and require perfect uniformity. Either dont remove it with a low pressure wash or do it quick with an oxidization remover.
8. If you spending more then 45-60 mins cleaning a house, your doing it wrong.
The proper way of cleaning a house is low pressure with bleach. Theres nothing on my 100k rig that a homeowner can't do with a garden hose, bleach, and a 30$ soap sprayer. My rig just does it in 45 mins instead of 8 hours.
Philly Love - May I ask how many 2-3 story house you removed oxidation using a 5 gallon bucket and a brush?
You can remove oxidation using some pressure before painting.
I’ve seen many disappointed customers with bleached decks and fences by bleach lords.
Painting is much harder and needs more knowledge job. You need more steps and chemicals to bring the wood back to the natural look and the right pH.
It’s not always the case to spray bleach using the shooter tips, pressing a button on remote and rinse off a vinyl siding house.
It kills the roots but if there’s the right conditions for algae mold and mildew to grow, they will grow right back no matter how many % bleach you used. That’s just a marketing using bleach prevents growing back.
@@igorverdes It's odd that you agree with everything I said yet wrote your message in a contradicting manner.
I think your confused because you lack reading comprehension.
3rd to comment. Going into the store at beginning is super lame and cheesey
