MAKE SURE YOU ARE SUBSCRIBED

20oz equals 568ml. 5us gallon is 18927ml which would give you a 3% sodium hydroxide mix. 40oz is 6%. For those mixing smaller quantities 👍

As a soapmaker who works with Sodium Hydroxide at much higher concentrations, I appreciate how thorough you went over the safety for this. Thank you! 🙏🙂 5:20 Yes, this is very important! Although, you didn't quite cover this fully in the video (aside from getting all the air out). 1 thing that I see too often in videos from pressure washers who use sodium hydroxide, is they leave the lid off the bucket for an excess amount of time. I'm just awkwardly staring at the bucket like: "Don't just leave it out! Cover it if you're not using it!" Sodium Hydroxide is hydrophilic and loves to absorb the moisture that is in the air. The more moisture that it draws in, the faster that the potency/strength begins to degrade. 3:08 A friendly tip: Many people avoid long sleeves because (most) long sleeves are made for the colder weather, and can overheat in the summertime. To avoid this issue, look up "arm sleeves" at Farming supply shops. These arm sleeves are designed to protect farmers arms from not just thorns, but is made of a breathable fabric that protects from the intense sun of summer, and doesn't overheat. This also will allow you to easily remove the sleeves, without having to change your whole shirt when doing so. 2:26 The only bit that I disagree with, is the vinyl gloves (I know you layered it with a secondary set of gloves, so I'm not meaning you in general. I'm referring to if someone just uses the vinyl gloves by themselves). Vinyl gloves offers very little protection against chemicals. When working with a caustic material such as sodium hydroxide, it's better to use nitrile gloves instead. Nitrile gloves are more durable and stronger, but they are also made to be chemical resistant as well.

I been waiting on this video for awhile , thanks for making and being such a helpful force in our industry, your the man 👍

I was searching information on this yesterday. Perfect timing!

Great video! This channel is fantastic. Kudos, Barry.

Great video brother. We need more people like you in the industry. Keep it up.

Hey Big Bro. Just started using this on people’s driveways this week and it does a great job cleaning driveways. It helps save on using so much of my sh on driveways

Great content brotha! Crazy value in the videos you make!

Awesome video! I’m about to start doing this as a side gig just to stay away from work, I used to do it back In the day like 21 years ago… my town is very dirty! Let’s solve a problem! ☝️

Awesome information as always. Keep up the good work.

Awesome VIDEO… keep spraying!!! 🤞🏽♻️🫡

Great video. Thanks for the info!

Thanks for the information. I am starting my own business this year and that will help me tremendously!!

Great video. This is the one that made me subscribe. Keep informing the community and building. I can tell you are genuine and want to help others. I appreciate it.

I’ve watched probably about 200 hours of videos in the past month and a half. And you might be the first person to talk about DOT, although it was quick, you did mention it. There are laws about hauling 100 gallons of bleach or more. Maybe you could do a video on DOT laws? Great video appreciate it.

Amazing content sir thank you for all the thorough details hope all is well with you 👍🏽

Thank you .. truly helpful info. Much appreciated from Vegas.

I appreciate your time and energy! Thank you for your contributions to this industry. Quick question! Where do you order your SHCB’s from?

Awesome thanks for the information.

Thanks man! This will really help! Just starting out here :)

I've been using your videos for some time now, love it! quick note- folks can go to the SDS(safety data sheet) for the chemicals to see the manufacturer's specs for PPE for their product. The SDS is free from the manufacturer. I emailed you last week with some questions, as I'm up in Canada and want to model your business and procedures.

Awesome video with great information.

Thanks, this just means that your customer is excellent.

This video is GOLD!

You solid my brother 💪🏾💪🏾

Nice content. I am following you on your Facebook group as well. It is refreshing to see someone offering real-world help without trying to plug you into their "program". I have done a ton of concrete stain removal, but it is an area I have thought about. As far as process goes, after applying it, do you agitate or scrub it? Do you use your surface cleaner? Thanks for covering the safety aspect! Lastly, I don't x-jet too frequently, but if you were to use a pump up sprayer, (say a 2 gallon sprayer), what would your ratio be of chem and water?

Great video ✨️

Thank you! God bless you my friend!

Big Mike thanks you!

Great video by an honest man willing to share. I’m researching this and I can’t get a handle on the set up. Would you share a simple setup for beginners like me. A diagram would be great that I could follow and install myself. I just don’t have the funds to get someone to make up the system. Thanks.

Got my subscription. Thank you.

Thanks for sharing such helpful information. I wish we were able to see a demonstration of how to prepare and how effective it works.

Great video! Thanks Are you using the x jet with no Proportioner when applying this?

Love this dude. Great and helpful video. I bought some beads because of your recommendation. Stoked to use them!

Great video. What color tip do you use in your x jet? Or do you use it without any tips? Thanks!

Thank you so much for your selflessness in teaching. Would love to connect. I have some questions.

Saw someone mention using cement morder dusting after cleaning to fill the pours and blend the oil spot.

Great video and channel thanks

nice sir so can you wash houses with this and a good soap thanks in advance or would I use SH.

I can certainly attest to the effectiveness of this chemical. It melts the grease away. Works great for my restaurants I clean.

Good point on the 100 gallons of chemicals on your trailer

Good job

Boric acid nutrilzes sodium hydroxide. Ask me how I know .... its a bye product of making chlorine so is hydrogen. Used to make it from saltwater . When producing it , it turns from a liquid state to a solid at 450 degrees. Its used in MOST processed foods , dye in blue jeans, a buffer for aspirin and drain cleaners.

This is awesome! Could you make a video how you do your reclaim?

hello good morning. I follow you from Colombia. congratulations for your professionalism in what you do and super clear in your videos. I have a question if you can help me; Does the hose to apply sodium and so on have to have any special characteristics?

I can’t wait to have a set up like yours

Very helpful video

What degreasers have you used in the past and how do they compare to using the raw material?

lol I know we are suppose to be paying attention but I’m a shoe lover 🤝🏾🤝🏾🤝🏾sir your show game is A1!!

Good video, bra out there fresh as hell 🤝🏾🤣🦍 #BigPressure🌎

155 full face 3m respirator with carbon filters. 250 chem gloves from hd acid resistant two pairs to swap out to stay dry. Buy lage size use cotton gloves underneath.

All said and done x jet pulls 1:4 I’d put about 40 oz in for cold water machine.. how much dawn do you use? And can I use a drill attached stirring stick without it volcanoing or burning myself?

Awesome video

Thanks for the information will this work on Pavers?

You are the man!

What do you recommend on charging for commercial jobs such as gas stations or restaurant drive-thru?

Thanks a lot for your time and help Where can we get a shirt like your or similar?

Sodium hydroxide works great on organic grease and stains but not very good on synthetic oils or motor oils, transmission fluid ect. For those types oils as and stains you need butyl

can you tell me the site where I can purchase the sodium hydroxide thank you .

What tip do you use in the x-jet to apply this with out diluting too much?

Thanks

Do you have videos on how you test your flow rate and percentages?

do you also use it as a soft wash to clean houses?

Oh shit under a hundred gallons. Damn brother I should have known that. Especially how DOT here in Cookeville and Baxter area are. I see them around almost every day

Can this be used on commercial trucks like fuel hauler or grease trucks? Or is it just for concrete and stones?

Are you using this method with a hot or cold water machine?

Will this work for drive thru curbs(rubber tire streaks)?

Thanks buddy

Also can you use On homes and roofs or too strong

Are you using hot water with this method to remove oil stains???

X Jet work fantastic

Do you ever add potassium hydroxide? I've been adding some potassium hydroxide for restaurants to help with the food grease.

How do you know % is it don't by the cup size you mentioned?

Not sure if you answered yet his. But I'm assuming it will eat up restaurant grease?

What ratio are you applying this mix at? What tip on the xjet? Can I downstream that 20oz mix at 10:1?

What ratio is set on the XJet and what psi do you push through with the pressure washer? Also, do you have problems with streaking because you arent using bleach?

So use this mix at about same dilution as sh?

What ratio does that xjet kick it out at?

What was the name of the powder that you have

With the Js on!!!

So do u just add water and a little soap or what

How many ounces of hydroxide do you add to a 5 gallon bucket of water? As always thanks for all the help

Where's the cheapest place to buy an xjet Thank you

Do you buy this online or at a local store

Are you selling Sodium Hydroxide beads now? I thought I saw that in one of your videos. If so how do I get up with you.

Where can I buy this ???

Do you ever post treat?

How did he mix it he said a cup full but how much water ?

Where are you getting those huge bags of hydroxide?

We're can I buy those 50lb bags of sodium hydroxide My local chemical store don't have it

Are you selling this? I can’t find it anywhere near me

Where can I buy it? Thanks in advanced!

How long do you let it sit on the concrete?

Will a pump up sprayer work ok for this sodium hydroxide mix?

Did you say mix bleach with dawn?

Just think what the customer is thinking when your about to wash there house, and you have the face shield, and mask on lol

No body's giving up game like you

I might have issues getting that stuff here in Australia. This place is the world's biggest nanny state. I have problems at the pool shop when i buy liquid chlorine. Always questions and being told what i can and can't do etc.. it's a woman there so probably a Karen.. 😀

What portioner do you use for the xjet and typically what is the GPM on the machine you’re using when applying the 20-40oz mixture of hydroxide? Thanks for this great info, looking to do my own research and implement similar practices within my own business!
