What is meant by reducing pressure with different tips is using tips with a larger diameter orifice not a just a wider pattern. using a different pattern tip gives you just that - a different pattern, not less pressure. But you are correct in saying the impact is spread out over a wider area...

Is it a restriping job or will you be doing a new layout? What type of paint will you be using? What surface will you be striping(asphalt, sealcoating, concrete, etc.) ? What application equipment will you use? Will you be painting curbs, car stops, ramps, - if so, how many...

if you can only " stay afloat " washing cars , then you will sink like a rock with a big machine to pay for. Why do you wash the cars if you dont make money? There is alot of work you can do with your machines, try to sell your service to other lots, develop a system, get a helper to speed...

The hot water is needed more outside than inside, If you want to get done fast enough to make money - you really need hot water. Don't forget the gum. a water hose will remove gum about as fast as a cold pressure washer, maybe faster considering time it takes to set up. :D You wont make...

Without hot water you really can't do restaurants, too much grease, unless you use alot of chemical and pressure (more than you have). $150/DAY!!!! You should be able to rent surface cleaner for $20-$30/day. I could rent you my rig and surface cleaner for $150/day.

There are alot of ways to set your trailer up, Do a search on this board and others to find out more. Sometimes its easier to do this first rather than asking alot of questions. Usually someone has asked the same questoion before and you can read the responses to their questions. Alot of times...

I use that stuff on the members of the swedish bikini team, like to rub it in nice and slow .;) Seriously though, I have had someone ask me about it once and I didnt know what to tell them because I never heard of it. Maybe you can do a search on this and other boards and find out about it.

The pump drive is not always what fails, it is usually the pump. On a direct drive machine There is no drive, the motor hooks up DIRECTLY to the pump. The other types use belts/pulleys, or Gearboxes to turn the pump. The pumps used in these systems are designed to pump water while they turn at...

For the cost of a dual wand set-up, I believe 2 separate units would be more useful. You also have the security of 2 machines if one breaks down. Nothing is less professional than leaving a job un-finished. There are alot of good units available, the Allison is one of them. There are also many...

:cool: A new hot box would be the way to go if you have a good machine already. You can get them for about 1000-1500 just about anywhere that sells professional equipment.

Mark do you still have any of the special price machines you were selling about a month or so ago? that seemed like a pretty good deal for the money.

I (or anyone else i have spoken to about this) cant seem to get 200 pages before needing to replace cartridges. In fact most ink-jet printers average 25-50 cents PER PAGE for color printing. But someone with your superior computer knowledge and skill can do what no one (not even the...

"I can print at least 2500 8 x 11 sheet per cartridge" wow! I don't think the rest of the world knows how to get that out of an ink jet printer. maybe you can enlighten us. Maybe printing very sparse, low resolution (draft) text will get you that many pages but i doubt you get close to...

in one post you said you use chlorine and now you say you never use chlorine. what are you trying to say?

"...maybe 50 cents in ink" hmmmm right. like I said, good luck buddy. I hope you figure your pressure cleaning costs a little better than that if you plan on being in business long enough to get a call back on one of those cards you made. That is if the 50cent ink lasts long enough. I'm...

Good luck, but i still think you are wrong if you think you are saving money. Hope it works for you. later Pete

the home printed cards will smear with slightly damp fingers if printed with ink jet printer. they have better ink now but it is very expensive. you can get much nicer cards printed professionally for a fraction of the cost of the ink alone. If my hands are a little wet from working with water...
