NICE work !
Pink Flamingo!
👍👍
Thanks! 😊
I watched an older video today of you cleaning a tile roof and you bagged the gutter with a clear tube made a plastic you cut it and tied it out on the end of it just wondered where you got that at and what is it? It seemed very handy. Thanks. Keep up the good work. Love your videos.
Yes indeed. I have it linked in the description of all my videos. There's a list of all the things I use.
Great work. Stay hydrated.
Thank you, I will
Get that 💰 Cliff!🙏🏿
Fa sho my bro!
I know you been doing this awhile now. I love ya page thank you for all your advice. What’s your marketing strategies?
Google, Facebook, nextdoor, yard signs, flyers, website/SEO
Bro stay cool out there its warming up
Its been crucial!!! Ive been trying to get done by 2pm last few weeks.
Do you have a full truck video walk though?
I haven't done one yet. I got the build playlist of the truck but not full overview. It's on the to do list though. Stay tuned
I've always wondered about hose lengths. Guess ill be trying the 100ft sections next. How many times do you repair them once they burst (if at all) before you throw them away?
Depends where It burst. Also after 1 time I chuck em cause it's gonna happen somewhere again.
I use a 50 1/2 at the start 200 gray
And 15 in the end
Its always the end that blow.
I've had all of them blow in my 5 years. Lol
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash eventually they all will.
When you softwash a shingle roof do you rinse it when you get done softwashing it?
No I don't rinse shingles or tile. I only rinse metal roofs
Ok, so - just so i understand - when you downstream straight 12% SH it comes out at, what - 1 to 1.5%?
And if you softwash - that comes out at exactly the blend you mixed with, right? So plant protection isn't quite as critical at 1% downstream but when softwashing - it's critical big time? Am i getting this right?
Oops - you answered part of my questions already. 🙄🤦
LOL its all good but you are correct.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash
Daggum man - you are on the ball....😃👍
Like buda
HAHHAAA
What crm do you use Cliff? I've heard good things about Markate and Jobber. I've been using the free version of QuoteIQ and like it, but have heard horror stories, so I'm looking for a different crm
What horror stories ?
@mikesh8968 I heard from a couple guys that once you buy their subscription for it, and want to cancel it at some point, they won't let you. Even when you hit cancel, they continue to charge the card until you go through your bank or credit card company
I use Hubspot CRM. It works fine for me i havent tried other CRMs yet.
As far as hoses,,,,,,Not If they blow Cliff!! When.... they blow lol cuz they WILL BLOW!
Of course they will. Nothing lasts in this industry lol 😆 🙃 😅 😂
Nice work.. what % bleach and soap and the ticket $?
I buy the 12.5% and then I downstreamed it which is around a 1.5-2% mix. Soap is already added to the sh at 1oz to every 5 gallons of SH.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash great thank you! I live a hour from Midwest equipment here in Indiana so i went with their cherry scented soap additive.
Hey Cliff,
How whats the hose limit for downstreaming?
I've used 300-350ft with no problem
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash oh wow. I got a 4gpm with a 125ft and 100ft attached to it. Still doesn’t pull. Only when I got it at 100 it pulls.
@@chrisdelacruz1355 check that your hose is actually the proper diameter. I had a similar issue, and I switched over to a proper 3/8 and it somehow fixed it. Now it could have been something else because I took apart my ds injector, but idk. My ds injector was brand new. So check everything. Make sure you're using a low psi tip too. Make sure the arrow points the right way and such
Do you soak the freeze first ?
The freeze?
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash trees I meant
@@keyzopendoorz123 yes its always great to do soak them first. Especially on super hot days.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash aye OG you got a video running down all the equipment you need and how to put it together ? Or did I miss it ?
@keyzopendoorz123 nah I aint got that kind of video that a lot of details to cover
Have you ever thought of using a foamer to do pool cages? Just use 1 or 2 gallon sprayer, ditch the little wand from that. Ditch the bottle from the foamer, run a new hose from the foamer, into the sprayer bottle, & foam away! Cling to that mesh like like shaving cream!
Lol hell no. I don't want a bunch of foam to rinse off. The soap with the sh clings and kills the algae
Go ahead and try it yourself and upload a video, I'd love to see that technique! 😂
