Was washing the home of my pool guy the other day and he asked if I could clean up his two Bobcats for his business. I told him I would have to work up some numbers for him and get back with him. I will be using hot water and whatever chemicals that would be needed. I guess the question has anyone done any of these, and if so how much did you charge and is there any little hidden surprises that I should watch out for. Thanks.
 
Not much to em Just wacth out for the electrical components and gauges (Depending on how new they are) You may want to put a trash bag over the sits since there are no cab doors. Blow the big stuff off first with hot water then soap up and wash top down. Price wise not sure for you. It would take me 30min a piece to wash and get them squeaky clean. I would suggest sticking to your job minimum amount, whatever that may be.
There is great money is heavy equipment HAVE FUN!!!
 
Also make sure the bucket on the Cat is off the ground at least a quarter and tilted down halfway. why? So when you wash the bucket...the water will not accumulate there. Also, you want to hit underneath the bucket.

If you have a shephards hook...use it for the undercarriage.

Have the Cat parked on a hard surface before you wash. Does it have wheels or is it on tracks.

If there are chuncks of dirt on the Cat...get it off before you apply any water. Take a trenching shovel or something like it to knock the chucks of dirt away. Once you do that....pick them up and get them out of the way. If you leave them just sitting there...they will get wet when you start spraying and then turn into mud...now you are not only cleaning his cat...you are also cleaning his flatwork.
 
Just make sure you skin it first...and then you have to flesh it to get all that fat off the fur....
