    parking lot cleaning

    I'll have to agree with rick on this one, we also do a lot of parking lots and when it comes to pushing sand it can be a whole new ballgame especially if it is a asphalt parking lot that hasn't been sealed, sand gets down in the asphalt and it takes forever to get anywhere with it. Bruce P.S...

    acid and soap

    Dave, I here where your coming from, We used to put degreaser in our soap to make it strong enough for it to clean, and yes it would turn the alum. brown if mixed to strong. since then we started using a high quality soap that cleans without the degreaser(caustic) in it, had to do something with...

    5 Gallon Container

    Glenn, Good luck on finding these containers for $3 - $5, The best deal i'v found on these type containers is about $8.00, You might try a local chemical supplier, But you may have to buy the soap that comes in them to get'um. Bruce

    acid and soap

    Dave, Just curious, how come you use both acid and soap at the same time instead of acid first and soap second! Bruce

    I need help with this one.

    Dan,I'll have to agree with the rest of the group here. The other board was a good board till certain people starting posting negative posts, humorus at times but mostly rachet jawing. Seems like all this one person is interested in doing is starting arguements. So i'll have to say yes, out. Bruce

    Fleet Wash

    When i said "Like what" i was referring to what other chemical will do the job that hydro. does. I'v tried and i do use phos. acid and it does work good on most things but,not nearly as good as hydro. does. I'm not saying hydro. is not bad because it is, but i have been using and mixing it for...

    a new way fer me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Dan, your ford should handle the load but you may have to re-arange you setup, I pull a 16 ft. lowboy with a 1500 series Z71, it has been doing a fine job for over 2 years now. I have a TUFF hot water machine that sits on the very back and 2 hosereels then in front of that a 550 gal. water tank...

    cracked pistons

    John, Not done many general's mostly cat's but i'm sure there pretty much the same no special tools are needed your old bolts should work fine just don't tighten them down too tight that they will break. you can try ********** for parts, there cheaper than ***** . Bruce

    Finally bought my Steel Eagle! But I have a question??

    Jamie, Did you use a plumbers tape on the high pressure hose when you tighten it down. Check all your fittings under the deck to see if they are tight. If they are you may have recieved a bad swivel. Bruce

    soaps??????

    Dan, Have you ever tried soap at high pressure, if you do very much truck washing this is a must,(it is for me anyway). you can do a truck in about half the time and do a better job on the frame, motor, bugs, ect. if you need any more help let me know. Bruce

    New machine?

    I may be wrong but i think the only diference in the tuff and the rk21 is the fuel tank, the unloader, and the fuel filter and may the battery, cant see where that would cost $400.00 more but maybe i'm wrong. also the reason i run cat pumps is because i run alum. brightner through my pump at...

    New machine?

    Jamie, I have several 5@3000 TUFF machines all with CAT pumps on them, not had much problems at all with them except replace the fuel filter a few times (less than $3.00). For the money these are very good machines. Less than $3000.00 each. Bruce
