Covering powerwashers

[Clean County PW]

My hot water PW is on the bed of my truck and I put a tarp over it when not in use. Of course when driving down the road the tarp is always wipping around even though it is strapped on to the PW. Eventually the tarp rips and then off to home Depot for another one. What a pain in the *** The tarp looks lousy on top of the PW to boot.

It would be neat if a company would make a plastic size box that is the dimension that one can order that they can put over the PW when not in use. At the bottom of this plastic box could be clamps that hook into the PW to keep the plastic box cover from flying off. This would look more professional and also you could have advertisement put on this cover to make it serve even more of a purpose then just covering the PW.

Just an Idea.

John,
I would suggest checking with a place that fabricates custom boat covers or maybe a tent and awning maker. They should be able to make a fitted canvas cover that won't whip around like a flat tarp. It could be easily stored when not on your machine. Advertising could also be applied to it as well. That might be more convenient than a hard plastic cover maybe cheaper as well.

John,
Contact Delco Cleaning Sysytems in Fort Worth, TX. They have a heavy duty custom cover available for most machines. A little pricey but they are definitely durable.

You can also go to a local auto upholstery shop, they can make one for you.

I had one made for my generator and vise. keeps then clean and out of sight.

The one for the generator has thoseplastic straps you snap together then pull tight. Does not blow off while I am on the freeway.

Want pictures just hollar and I will snap and post.

I went to a local awning company and they made custom covers for each piece of equipment. They put eyelets along the bottom and I just use bungee cords to keep them in place. They are a heavy enough canvas that it keeps my equipment dry after sitting out in the rain. Best money I have spent in a long time.
