Not as much as I would like, it seems to come in waves for some reason.
Cheers Kev I will try and make the next one more interesting.

Hi Rob, good videos and nice work, just to share a little tip that can be of benefit, when pre spraying chems onto any vertical surface its always best to spray starting from the bottom and working your way up the top, this will help the chems to break down the soils more effectively as they will achieve better adhesion and you will end up with a more uniformed finish.  Tadgh

Has its uses but its a lot of money for a nozzle with a hose.

I asked qwasher a few years ago to see if he could cobble together an xjet type clone but he never got back to me as per pic. Instead just drilled out the hole bigger on a sand blasting kit he sells instead. That was not ideal for me as I wanted a quick change nozzle type setup so never bought one.

How did you get on with the sandblasting kit, I went to hire one for a job a while back, but didn't as they led me to believe they are pretty crappy.

I've never bothered to buy one smudger nor a modified one for applying soap

Think Damian has made a newer version and Ben does one too but i haven't used either yet so don't know how they compare to the x jet.

Sorry posted in the wrong thread.

Honest option,  as a customer viewing  the videos.

1. The music needs to be removed. I was watching the videos and turned off the sound as I found the music annoying. In doing so I could have missed any information you might have given out over the course of the video.
2. I would have liked information to be given ( A voice over ), Telling me of what the process is and how your company's approach is better than say another one.

Not knowing how these videos will be used  say maybe in conjunction with text or just as a example. More information the better.  As a selling tool I feel your not fully utilizing it.
