What mix do I use for softwashing? #1 question asked
So I have a Dewalt 4400 I use around my house, I have had this issue where I shut it down for 10-15 min and the handle won't pull when I go to start it almost as it's locked up. what I have found is I have to depressurization it by pressing the trigger releasing the pressure and some water with it.. then I can start it with no problems .
@@Chevxjoe A lot of pressure washers are like that unfortunately. Pulling the trigger or having an open ball valve is about the only way you can get them to start.
That has never been cleaned since it was built.
@@777BigMFishing I wouldn’t think so either. I think that is why it took so many applications.
Have you ever tried using a Flowzone to softwash with?
@@jacobryan4341 No. It would work I just don’t know how long the pump would last.
@@jonboysprowash7845 Suppose to be one of the best backpack sprayers on the market. Flowzone Typhoon 3.0, suppose to spray over a gallon a minute, has Videc seals. Find out how long it lasts I guess, good thing they have every part that you can order to replace if needed.
@@jacobryan4341 That is a plus for sure. You keep the pump rinsed out and it may last a long time. 4 gallons will spray a lot too.
You could've washed the shed too! I've seen them even wash boats with the oxalate solution.
@@rochellerochelle1488 Thanks. I never thought about trying it on the building
What did you spray on it?
@@ericsparks 50/50 15% bleach mixture
Maybe i misswd it ..What mixture you use on the bricks ?
50/50 mix
@@jonboysprowash7845 thank you for the rwply...new sub
@@LaGarduno You’re welcome. Thanks for watching 👍
Throw a Honda GX390 engine on that pump on that cart and it will work every time
@@fz6rider072 For sure. Honda is the best. 👍
I bet the valve lash is the issue with the engine.
@@alexvann1448 Turns out it was hydrolocked.
I had the same symptoms with a Honda gx200 and the valve lash fixed the issue. That’s good you figured it out.
@@alexvann1448 Thanks for the tip. I will have my mechanic look at it before I sell it
Have you checked your valve clearances? A key start predator does sound like a better idea for you.
@@tonyyyyy4672No I didn’t dig into the motor. Had it at a shop last Summer and they adjusted a lot on it, but not sure exactly what. I feel the Predator will be good too. If any issues can take back not have to deal with dealers.
I think i seen this on Amazon. Glad i didnt buy it. Ill get the predator or build one off Amazon
I think that would be the better option.
Cheap residential unit not meant for commercial use
True. I said in video I knew that comment was coming.
Aaa are the worst
@@TheToOPPlayers Yep not made for longevity.
This doesn’t know Ssshhh it works what’s he talking about about
@@ernestofigueroa2150 You are right it works great. 👍
Hey Jon when I took out my check valves from the pump I lost one of the springs inside the plastic piece, what should I do or will my pump not work
@@colincampbell1816 If the spring came out you would have to replace them. I think they only sell them by the set of 6.
Well spoken
@@p.d.kennels Thank you. Thanks for watching. 👍
How long would it take you to clean an average driveway?
@@motivationalmindset340 Maybe 1-2 hours. A lot of different factors go into it that though.
He's just saying things, while others show you how it works, I'm about to go get another bottle to hookup to the garden hose. Just you cleaning your own house saves you tons of money.
@@williammunny7133 Yes it does and it works great for house washing.
What do you have connected from the water tank? The white cone looking thing
PVC pipe connector screwed on to the cam lock.
Sure is taking a long time to mention the white elephant in the room .Lol
@@user-ik9mo8wm7q No elephants here.
@@jonboysprowash7845 sorry I guess I missed what caused the hole to be blown in the pump case. That is what I was referring to as the white elephant.
@@user-ik9mo8wm7q Your guess is as good as mine. This pump is not known for its reliability.
It does not work on wood siding I just tried for an hour
@@mrsamsung8184 That’s not cool. I have used bleach on wood projects before and it worked really good.
This man is the only person I trust on You tube....He must have been raised in church.... I Iove to hear him talk....Don't you?
@@personalaccount3735 Thanks I appreciate it. I was raised in church.
I am Jon boy's biggest fan! This man is so honest it is inspiration just to have found him. Much respect from Dr. dirt from Indianapolis, Indiana
@@personalaccount3735 Thanks so much I appreciate the kind words.
I got too many ideas... i wana start them all... it would be best to do a cheap beginner set up, and faze out the weak, reinvest in the strongest parts of my business... ill most likely do a cheaper build....
@@InnocentlyInsane666 I have always started small and gotten bigger as business picked up and better tools would make me more efficient.
Great work. I suggest you wet the grass before and after. And adding a little dawn to stick better and brushing it would help quite a bit for speed. But all in all good work!
@@CLand1Nation Thanks. I appreciate it. If the grass would have been an issue I would have had it saturated for sure. Thanks for watching 👍
Money maker
Yes it is 👍
I’m just piecing things together myself at one thing at a time. If it’s going to take a while, then, so be it. Business like this isn’t a race.
@@TigerBlastPressureWashing. This is very true. This rig has gone through many changes over the years to what it is now. I started with a 2.5gpm in front seat of my 95 Accord
I did my tanks just like yours been getting stuff here and there to get everything ready your videos have been a great help
@@Farmalleric Great. I’m glad they have helped. Thanks for watching 👍
Everybody single Word you said in this video About Your Set up Es So Real. GOOD AND REAL información 👍
Thanks I appreciate it. Thanks for watching 👍
What?!?
@@clydedenby1436 👍
Does this work with a direct drive pump?
@@AJK-3 I have a GP 4040 pump and it works great.
Thanks for this video I'm gathering all the stuff so I can build one too
@@Farmalleric You’re welcome. Thanks for watching 👍
I used to do power washing as a business and used bleach with a few other ingredients that worked well. I’m older now and washing my own property and have used this and it works well. It’s definitely not straight bleach and works better than just bleach.
@@petebigg8362 It does work great.
I am trying my best to get started myself and I thank you for standing up for what is right and I don’t think there is anything wrong with your setup
@@stevemiller9269 Good luck to you. Thank you for watching 👍
I would think by now you have a system that works great for you . Maybe you seen my video here on youtube from 8 years ago ! use a 1" hose coming off the tank into the pressure washer. Those little ryobi 1900 psi pressure washer work the best as they seem to not as much water pressure to them compare to the gas direct drive pressure washers. The electric pressure washers pumps dont ware outas fast as direct drive pumps. This set up works perfect for doing basic detailing car washes as it has plenty of pressure to clean.I even clean my windows on my house with this system . ua-cam.com/video/Nx49I71SoAc/v-deo.htmlsi=Q0zIhSSIz6Qn6DtC
Thank you
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching 👍
1 can hear a thing your saying and yes you can mix our own beach. Not happening on my house. I like 30 sec.
@@johnsanderson2968 👍
I have a 4 GPM machine with a wire filter like that and mine stopped up a few weeks ago also. However, I noticed a decrease in water & pressure. Mine was just a build-up over time. I now have several filters with me and change them regularly. Luckily, it did not seem to hurt the machine.
@@RickHamilton-nk5pi The more filters the better for sure. 👍
What size barb do you have connected to your machine inlet coming from the tank?
It is a 3/4”-3/4” barb
G.O.A.T
@@javiersillasvlogs7340 👊👍🍀
Curious how are you running the soft wash hose through the garden hose reel. Is it hooked in to a garden swivel or? I built a similar skid to yours. Thanks for the inspiration!
@@PressureWashAppalachia I have a cam lock on one end and connect it to my pump that way. I don’t run it live.
Where's the video of it cutting it? Came here to hear / see it 🤦
I show it in the video. Thanks for watching 👍
I got a filter but feel like this is coming regardless 😅
Just part of it I guess with a buffer tank. The more filters the better 😂
Dont care, it works!!!! Had leaf stains on my sidewalk. It removed all the stains.
It is a great product 👍
I bought a 3200 psi pressure washing gas powered 4cycle. Going to do my own vinyl siding on my 2100 sq ft home. I didnt know that people used detergent with the bleach to keep it from drying to quickly. Glad I watched this video before starting the job. Thanks so much.
The soap is suppose to make the bleach “stick” longer ,but I haven’t used any in 2 years now and not had a problem yet,Even on roofs
All laundry detergent is bleach safe. People use them together when washing white clothes.
You are correct
128 oz per gallon
👍
How have they held up in the sun over time?
They have been good. I’ve had these for a year now and still working good.
@@jonboysprowash7845 right on thanks for the reply
@matt_r_s You’re welcome. Thanks for watching 👍
I got some because a buddy had them on his jeep to hold his hi lift and I figured they could strap my ladder to my Colorado. They’ve probably been baking in the Arizona sun on that jeep for at least a year since he never uses the jack. They weren’t brittle at all.
@@TheRealConMan98 👍
I love the setup! I'm putting together a proposal for a business loan. Do you mind if I DM you for a list?
Yeah no problem. You can message me through my Facebook page. Jonboy’s Pro Wash. I will help anyway I can.
What type of fitting is on the pressure washer to connect the poly hose?
Just a 3/4 garden hose repair barb.
It's a good setup. I run mine just the same with a Comet ZWD4040G pump gravity fed with zero problems. Did the same with an Annovi RRV4G40, which I ran for 6 years before it bit the dust. I don't use an electric pump for softwash, but I do have a AR30 diagram pump running off an old Harbor Freight Predator 212cc I bought used for $50. Been in business for 10 years in FL all run out of an old 2009 F150. Cleared 80k last year not even working full time. I'm 62 years old, and I wouldn't change a damned thing. Rock on, JohnBoy!
Thanks for the details
Sounds awesome. Thanks you too.
