Fields of application and working methods
6.1 General
Effi cient high presure cleaning is achieved by following a few guidelines,
combined with your own personal experience of specifi c cleaning tasks.
Accessories and detergents, when correctly chosen, can increase the
effi ciency of your pressure washer. Here is some basic information about
cleaning.
6.1.1 Detergent and foam
Foam or detergent should be applied onto dry surfaces so that the chem-
ical product is in direct contact with the dirt. Detergents are applied from
bottom to top, for example on a car bodywork, in order to avoid "super
clean" areas, where the detergent collects in higher concentration and
streams downwards. Let the detergent work for several minutes before
rinsing but never let it dry on the surface being cleaned.
Note:
It is impor-
tant that the detergents do not dry up. Otherwise the surfac that has to be
cleaned can be da maged.
6.1.2 Mechanical effect
In order to break down tough layers of dirt, additional mechanical effect
may be required. Special wash brushes offer this supplementary effect
that cuts through dirt (especially by car washing).
