Hey Cliff, thanks for all the videos. Just wondering what type of house mix do you use? Do you ever streak windows? If so, how do you prevent that?

@PinkFlamingoPowerWash 19 күн бұрын

I use sh aka chlorine. Ans I add some professional surfactant to cling and make windows shine. Slo mo surfactant Is my go to and my 2nd one I use is sticky icky from ameritech. The sticky icky comes in different scents which is pretty nice.

Always love your videos and really appreciate you taking the time to put them up! I was wondering when you surface clean pavers, doesn’t that also take the sand out from between the stones? Do you have to come put more sand in or does it usually stay put while you clean?

@PinkFlamingoPowerWash 18 күн бұрын

You're very welcome. The thing with pavers is that if they are not sealed the sand will wash out just from heavy rains. So there will be a little sand loss due to surface cleaning. Can't have it both ways there's no way to avoid it unless they're sealed. No I don't sand pavers unless I'm sealing them. Sanding takes time and time is money.

What's up, my man! Johnny from Ohio. I've been watching for a while. Learned a lot. Can I use SH to strip 4 yr old stamped concrete. If yes, what percent of SH to use. If no, what kinda stripper do you recommend? Any advice if much appreciated!

@PinkFlamingoPowerWash 18 күн бұрын

Strip sealer? Sh is a cleaner it won't remover no sealer. You would need a paver sealer stripper. There's a ton on the market. Trident has one, deco products has stripacast and cobble lock has cobble strip.

On the outlets and doorbell ringers I understand it's a good idea to tape up. What about the outdoor light fixtures? Can those be a problem?

Nah they're waterproof. I don't shoot water up towards the lights just only the top area.

What do you do with all the dirt and debris that accumulates in the street after you pressure wash a driveway?

Clean them up so customer doesn't track dirt back onto the driveway after I'm done. 🙃

New beginner to soft wash. Do you apply the sh then wait 15 to 10 minutes and then begin to rinse off?

@PinkFlamingoPowerWash 16 күн бұрын

I don't wait that long anymore. I did as a beginner but now my dwell time hovers around 7-8 mins at best

@duderock123456 15 күн бұрын

How many gallons of SH do you use on a topical house? Maybe 1800 SQ ft - 2000?

@PinkFlamingoPowerWash 15 күн бұрын

@duderock123456 would depend on how dirty it is and how large it is. In my 5 years it's been 7 gallons
