Hey Kyle just getting into the game. Could I do smaller jobs if I don't have a soft wash system by down streaming my chemical batch and use it from a black tip soap nozzle on the wand? Curious as to if I can do roofs with less equipment for now or if I need to avoid doing them.

Hey mate. Great video. I am really enjoying your content. Just started a pressure washing business and have been asked to quote my local shopping center to clean their PVC shade sails in the car park. They are pretty big. Any information on the best way to approach this. I know the pressure washer can damage the membrane if the PVC and i think the best way is to apply SH and hose off ? I think ? Haha Cheers bro, much love from Australia 🇦🇺 ✌️
