only my advice

Post by: TomCrowther on October 25, 2011, 10:12:33 am: Get a 13hp Honda petrol pressure washer and large flat surface cleaner. I got mine from a company called Tech Clean after a recommendation on here. This Honda machine is known as a workhorse and the flat surface cleaner is vital if you want to do the job properly.

Post by: david washbrook on October 25, 2011, 10:46:47 am: toms advice is about right the only thing i might disagree with is the flat surface cleaner as i prefer a turbo nozzle myself i have a tec clean flat surface cleaner but never use it i just prefer to use a turbo then clean up afterwards

just my preference nothing wrong with either way

I had a job , High level pressure washing , decided against hireing , The Pressure washer, i was`nt that confident i would get the job but priced it , to cover the ost of purchase .. got the job ....

I bought a Kiam washer , www.equip2clean.co.uk ,, they have several on offer , i have the one thats on offer for £599,,,
I was told , it s a s good as any Honda , but half the price ... well i was told no lies , not that i have used a Honda , but i have used the Kiam , it was on for pretty much all day for a week , yes its chinese, if you have a limited budget , dont over look it.
