Title: Sand blasting add on
Post by: Mikescape on June 11, 2007, 09:19:40 am

Has anyone added sandblasting to their pressure washing business and how have you got on. Have you managed to pick up much work and have the cleaning results with it been acceptable?
I am considering doing this in addition to driveway work?

Hi

Got the attachment and done a bit of work, but not much.
I haven't pushed it however and it might do well if advertised correctly.
The add on kit is not expensive and always worth having in the arsenal in my opinion.

Good luck

Andy

Hi Andy, which make of machine did u go for. Have looked about and the ultimate washer one looks good although I'm currently waiting for some info from Brendon Power Washers, although a bit more expensive.
Cheers

If you already have a pressure washer, then you should be able to get a generic attachment that fits onto your lance.

This is just one that I have found on ebay for example.

There are cheaper ones, but this one looks like a good one.

Hope this helps.

Andy

Cheers Andy, hadn't thought about ebay and had forgotten all about valetech pete. Thats quite a good one as it has a flow adjuster for the sand aswell. I currently run a pt250 tech clean machine so that should be perfect for that set up.
thanks again
Mike ;D
