Never do a circle motion when doing anything on you’re car always straight lines are you’ll get swirl marks in the paint

Thanks for commenting, but by this stage, most/all of the grime that causes swirl marks should have been washed off. If you don't believe me, think about how a DA polisher works 🙂

@bigtedshome3 күн бұрын
Take the measurements using the setting you normally use. I'm not trying to recommend an optimum %PIR or foam thickness as these are subjective. The video shows how you can work out the %PIR for any setup.

@bigtedshome3 күн бұрын
Try using a penetrating spray e.g. WD40 between the (non)opening window and the frame. Spray it into the gap between them and leave for a few minutes before trying to push the window open. You might need to try this several times if it's been stuck for a long time. Good luck 🙂

Hi I have just bought a sleekax snow foam gun suitable for karcher k2 but only produces foam wen bottle is upside down hv you any advice I'm using autoglym polar blast snow foam
@bigtedshome5 күн бұрын
The detergent should be pulled up by the partial vacuum caused by the water flow through the nozzle. If the foam flows into the nozzle when it is upside down then this indicates that the nozzle is not blocked but you probably have an air leak. The first thing I would check is that the suction hose is attached securely to the nozzle and not damaged. Check also that the tank is screwed tightly onto the nozzle.

Can you use it to clean house windows or too much pressure
@bigtedshome6 күн бұрын
Good question. There's lots of conflicting advice if you google it. I prefer to use a window vac but if I was going to use a pressure washer on my windows, I would turn the pressure down and use a wide spray pattern. This explains what can happen if you get it wrong: Pressure Washing Windows? Bad Idea! www.windowworldofboston.com/pressure-washing-windows-bad-idea/
@Twigster17 күн бұрын
Thanks for the video. I've just worked this out for my Nilfisk D130.4 pressure washer and Autobrite lance, flow on maximum and discharged the lot into a 2 buckets. It took 14L (14000ml) to empty the lance so by your working this is 14,000 x 0.04 = 560ml of foam liquid needed. Does this seem about right to you? Also, what setting should the flow/knob on top be turned to?
@bigtedshome7 күн бұрын
Looks good to me. Use the same setting as you used to take these measurements, then you will know that the 4% PIR is correct. If youbwant to lower the cost, you can always use a lower PIR if your car isn't too dirty.

It's probably just water that's splashed over during the rinse cycle. It won't drain unless the water level gets higher than the max level marker. At this point, the Pythagorean syphon will start and empty the compartment.
