How to Use a Pressure Washer
HOW TO USE A PRESSURE WASHER
You need care with one of these. On close work, sufficient pressure to be bearable to your hands is sufficient. This is quite low pressure, but using high water pressure will very easily damage a relatively fragile surface like glass or gel coat However, on a wide area and a harder surface material like steel or Ferro - concrete boat hulls for example. Or concrete flooring, then you can use a higher pressure, but use the pressure washer when the surface is coated with detergent solution for maximum effect.
A pressurewasher will never substitute for use of a detergent, it simply makes cleaning a particular area easier. It is not a particularly faster method of cleaning either. Use one to wet a whole area before detergent soaking, and then rinse off using the pressure washer.
