and sidewalks, garage floors, etc., select yellow
15° spray tip.
•
For maximum rinsing (higher pressure and lower
flow), for stubborn or hard to reach surface such as
second story surfaces, paint removal, oil stains,
rust removal or other stubborn substances (tar,
gum, grease, wax, etc.), select red 0° spray tip.
