    Question on Monier Tile

    I have a house wash next week that has an issue... The house has Monier tile roof and it appears to be leaching out and staining the aluminum flashing. The customer said that previous pressure washers have taken the stain off with a normal house wash, but I'm not sure I believe it. Anyone know...

    Motor Issue

    Questions About Mildew & Stain

    Trailer Build - Setup

    Anyone have a problem with a skid unit being offset on the passenger side, front of the trailer (right now it is centered and facing forward in pic)? Thinking about weight distribution and convenience.

    Trailer Build - Setup

    Hey guys, I'm in the middle of a build and have a pretty good idea of what my layout will be. But I wanted to ask y'all about hose reels. I have a frame built on this trailer and can mount the reels upside-down from the top of the frame... Anyone have pros or cons to mounting high instead of...

    Skid Unit - Frame Only

    $25!! That's robbery!!! Haha. Yeah, I'll replace that. And some hardware and some mounting brackets. Everything else is actually salvageable...or so says my metal expert. :)

    Skid Unit - Frame Only

    Thanks Ron. Thanks Russ. I decided to take it apart and refurbish it. Will give me a chance to service everything and clean it up. This was just a very bad van setup. I pulled the equipment, got rid of the van, and hope to restore the skid unit to looking nice again. Everything still works...

    Skid Unit - Frame Only

    Where can I get a replacement frame for a Shark hot water unit? The motor, pump, generator, burner...all components are good, but the frame has rusted pretty badly.

    Advice on cleaning clay off brick.

    Same issue here. Would like to try the muriatic... Maybe 10:1 wasn't strong enough? How do y'all feel about 5:1?

    Pump Configuration

    My pump runs fine. I have a 20 hp Honda motor running a Legacy Pump at 3500 psi and 5.6 gpm. Am I able to replace that pump with one that runs 8 gpm? Too much for the motor? I thought I saw some units for sale with the equivalent motor and 8 gpm.
