need to carry and is it difficult to do.Any advise is appretiated as it was to set up my valeting business.

tech-clean.co.uk sell decent equipment.
gonna cost short of 2k for new gear. forget a tank for anything bigger than a patio sized driveway, use their water.
trawl the board and i think you wil find what you need, its pretty well all been covered many times over.

You will also need:
a wide broom - for re-sanding
a long handled rubber squeegee - for pushing the slop to where you want it
a shovel - to clear up the mess
a trug - to put the mess in
a water barrell minimum 120litres - to use as your buffer tank
a hose pipe at least 30m long with hozelok fittings - some taps are in awkward places
the ability to accept rejection from homeowners while canvassing - you'll get this alot
the ability to look at a really crap job, smile, put your price in exceptionally high and hope you get it
a weedkiller application sprayer - to kill the weeds off
lots of money to spend on advertising - you'll need it
All the best
Mike ;) ;) ;D

I have sent many set ups to the UK from the US, and the British Pound is a bit more than 1/2 of the US Dollar. My Equipment is excellent and you'll save money after all expences.
I have pressure washers, Whirl-a-ways turbo nozzle,waterbrooms, long wands, etc.
