Cleaning Tips
Wood Decks
: Rinse deck and
surrounding area with fresh water. If
using detergent, fill the detergent
applicator bottle and apply to the area
being cleaned. For optimal results,
reduce your work area to small sections
and clean each section one at a time.
Allow the detergent to rest on the surface
for a few minutes and then rinse at high
pressure. Do not let the detergent dry on
the deck. Always clean from left to right
and top to bottom for best results. Rinse
at high pressure using the lance keeping
the tip of the spray nozzle 8-12 inches
from the surface.
Caution:
For soft
woods, increase the distance from the
cleaning surface.
Cars, Boats, & Motorcycles
: Wet down
area to be cleaned before applying
detergent with clean water. Fill the
detergent applicator bottle and apply to
the area being cleaned. To achieve best
results, clean one side at a time. Allow
the detergent to rest on the surface for a
few minutes but do not let it dry. Rinse at
high pressure using the high pressure
lance in a sweeping motion keeping the
tip of the spray nozzle at least 8-10
inches away from the surface. Maintain a
further distance when using a direct
spray. Wipe surface for a polished finish.
