U cool bruh I like you! I’m not going into buisness.. but trying to learn what I’m doing b4 I tackle my parents & family members properties! I just wish I could afford a 4gpm washer! I got a 1/2 working hand me down 2.3 gpm which blows the 1.7gpm electric joint out the water 😉
Tremendous information Ray ! I like your energy is 100% motivation for me to improve my business also the videos are very clear and the links time saver. Thanks
Great video. I only clean concrete and brickwork. Is there a certain product or mixture that you recommend? I am in the Philadelphia PA market where we have all 4 seasons. Winter, spring summer and fall. Thanks

I was looking for a good info about chemicals, man you are the best. Thank you for share. God bless you for your good intention helping other people like me. 😀
Out of all of the pressure washing channels, you seem to give the public the most information. I do have one question. Where do you get you SH from? I’m starting a pressure washing business here in Alabama next month.
If I have SH 12.5% and I'm going to just put it into a regular garden sprayer to spray on our deck for the bad algae that has made the wood even turn bark. What is the ratio of water to SH 12.5%
Thanks Ray I appreciate the wealth of knowledge you have given me, those Eco, chemicals can be purchased online if one were looking for, once again I appreciate it very much , CHILL Mooresville North Carolina
Hey bud I'm just starting out in the business and finding it hard to figure out what chemicals to use for wood, concrete, brick, roofs etc. It's all pretty overwhelming. Is there a product to use to treat all starting out? I'd appreciate yours or anyone else's input. Thanks in advance
Gutter grenade and other oxidation removers - ANY oxidation remover can take the paint all the way down to the bare metal. This isn't so much a failure of the product or the applicator because the oxidation is damage to the paint and these products remove the damaged/oxidized paint. If the paint is oxidized all the way down to the metal, there is a chance you can remove the damaged paint all the way down to the metal, even doing the work correctly. The best defense here is to explain to the customer before the work is done that this is a possibility, and it is not damage you caused, but oxidation damage to the paint that your cleaning revealed. I explain that if the paint goes all the way down to the metal, then the gutter is prepped to be painted. Usually this damage is to the front facing surface and not the bottom, so it is a simple matter to paint that surface. Painting isn't a service I offer, but I'd rather tell the customer up front than have them see the missing paint after the paint has been removed. If you try to explain this AFTER the damaged paint has been removed, you look like a shifty/shady character trying to cover their butt and talk their way out of repairing the damage. So I cannot stress to people how important it is to warn customers ahead of time of any damage that may be revealed during cleaning. I've used F9 and other stain removers. It is kind of fun to watch those stains just melt away. For a bleach neutralizer, I use SoftWash Systems Final Wash products. It is a great neutralizer for house washing, and rinsing and neutralizing your equipment. It also has a wax content that adds a little shine to vinyl siding and adds another layer of protection to your equipment, and it both less expensive, and applied at a lower rate so it lasts longer. I also use it in a Chapin 362 hose end sprayer to spray on wood decks under the drip line of a roof with no gutters to avoid that clean line on a dirty deck. I do spray this on copper as I'm washing around it to protect it.
Hi Ray, I noticed the gallon jug of Napa RV wash on the floor but he didn't talk about it. Just wanted to know your thoughts on it. Just had a client ask me to do his RV which I haven't even looked at yet and wondered if it was worth doing
Have you had any luck trying to dilute One Restore with water when trying to remove rust and red mud from concrete or paint wash from brick? Trying to find ways to cut chemical cost. Awesome video!
Do we need to placard our vehicles for all the chemicals we carry? I’m thinking we need to for SH because of the amount on board. SDS sheets need to be carried on board, that I know.
Have you ever had a customer ask to remove tire marks from a drive way? I have some newer built subdivisions(2 years old) and alot of customers have started asking if i can remove them.
Yep, good to have the ability to get it. Took me while to figure out how to get them up. Actually found this trick on a very old post on some forum boards lol
I always pretreat concrete if it has organic growth. Some don't just because they want to save money on chemicals or maybe they dont charge enough to cover the expense. Also possible they may not use chemicals due to sensitive vegetation OR to obey the laws of their local municipality. Many factors can come into play. Hope that helps 👍
apple wash? I built a proportion setup and was wondering do I just drop in a 1/4 inch soap line straight into the jugs or 5-gallon bucket or do I need to mix up a batch?
Hey Ray just subscribed to your channel I like the info I'm in Houston Texas that Apple watch how long does it last it starts going bad after how long how long will a 5 gallon bucket last
Most helpful video I’ve watched man, thank you so much, I just got started pressure washing and some stains have been a nightmare, I’ll be sure to buy a lot of the stuff you mentioned here
Man you should be sponsored by these chems lol, good video bud. I tried the hot stain remover to remove oil stains on driveway and not much luck with it. full strength , any advice?
Hey Ray ,Chill, Mooresville North Carolina, I went and seen Aaron at the Power Wash Store and bought me some Apple Wash 🍎 and a new Water Dragon trigger gun, thanks buddy..
Always cool down any windows that are in direct sunlight with water only before applying the soap. You probably experience a broken seal that reacted with the SH.
My man! Hands down the best straight up hands on explanation to the different chemical options out there and what you use them for. Brother I appreciate you 1000% f$@!%&g percent!

Whats the best chem for wood siding painted and stained
Do you use a surfactant with the Cleansol BC while removing oxidation, so it clings?
So where do you buy all these chemicals, especially in the big barrels
