Title: Wall Cleaner/small FSC
Post by: Matt Gibson on February 15, 2012, 04:34:35 pm: Hi guys,

Anyone in the north got a smallish fsc or a wall cleaner i could possibly borrow if the need arises?

Am going in to quote a job and its going to be mostly walls, and im not sure if ill have time to buy one myself..

I was thinking about buying one of those small 12" whirlaways from the states? the ones you attach to the end of a lance?

Can get one delivered for £127, anyone had any experience with these?

Cheers,

Matt

EDIT: and i am assuming because i run an 05 nozzle, ill need 2 x 025 nozzles for whatever i buy? never had a FSC before.

Im guessing its not going to be cheap though. well, not as cheap as £127.. seems any size surface cleaner is pricey, whatever brand you buy.

Ill give them a bell and get a price though.

How much did you pay? Mosmatic prices?

Lee, thanks for the offer mate. Might work out cheaper as I probably wouldn't get much use out of one if I bought it. But like you say, handy to have.

Post by: BDCS on February 15, 2012, 09:32:04 pm: It wer'nt cheap but I bought it just to do pontoon decking in a marina and it went on the job - I think I paid nearly £300 about 8 years ago. The import from the states will have vat and import duty but will still work out cheap

Post by: Matt Gibson on February 16, 2012, 08:22:19 am: Yeah that's the one I was gonna get. From the states. Will work out to be just over £150 delivered or close to.
