DETERGENTS
The use of detergents can dramatically reduce
cleaning time and assist in the removal of difficult
stains.
Some detergents have been customized for
pressure washer use on specific cleaning tasks.
These detergents are approximately as thick as
water.
The use of thicker detergents, such as washing-up
liquid, will clog the chemical injection system and
prevent the application of the detergent.
The cleaning power of detergents comes
from applying them to a surface and giving
the chemicals time to break down the dirt and
grime. Detergents work best when applied at low
pressure.
Follow this with a high pressure rinse for best
cleaning results.
On vertical surfaces, apply the detergent starting
at the bottom and work your way upward.
This will prevent the detergent form sliding down
and causing streaks.
High pressure rinsing should also progress from
the bottom upwards.
On particularly tough stains it may be necessary
to use a brush in combination with detergents and
high pressure rinsing.
Operation
The following cleaning procedure will help you
organize your cleaning task and ensure that
you achieve the most beneficial results in the
shortest amount of time.
Remember to use the spraying/ cleaning
techniques previously listed.
Surface preparation
1.
It is important to prepare the surface that is to
be cleaned. This is done by clearing the area of
furniture and making sure that all windows and
doors are closed tight. In addition, you should
make sure that all plants and trees adjacent
to the cleaning area are protected by a drop
cloth. This will ensure that your plants won’t be
sprayed by the detergents.
Initial High Pressure Rinse
2.
The next step is to spray the cleaning surface
with water to clear off any dirt or grime that may
have collected on the surface. This will allow
your detergent to attack the deep down dirt that
has worked its way into the cleaning surface.
Before triggering the gun, adjust the nozzle
to a wide fan pattern and slowly adjust to the
desired spray pattern.
This will help you avoid applying too much
concentrated spray to the surface which could
cause damage.
