That's very ingenious, poor mans hand powered pressure washer.

I just bought a 3000 psi pressure washer today which I used to clean my vinyl siding that was starting to turn green. It kicks ***! I plan to wash the cars with it as well, on the lowest possible pressure setting of course.

I had green stuff on my driveway walls. It took it off pretty easily.


I thought apartments had some hoses for ppl to wash their cars. The apartments/condos have it near my place. What do ur neighbours do??

Drive down the street and shell out $12-20 for a carwash. Most of the Chicago apartments don't allow use of their hoses in my experience.
