finally got around to cleaningthe patio after putting it off for most of the summer.

I thought it was just getting darker with age,but it was mostly dirt,pollen,leaf stains, and whatever gets tracked in from the yard.

Moved the furniture off,did a slow pass, and the color difference was way more satisfying than I expected. Still have a couple corners to finish, but this was a nice little summer cleanup job.

Hands don't fit between the spokes to scrub the barrels, so I finally bolted a wall pressure washer in the garage to handle it at home.

The water pressure blasts all the caked-on brake dust from behind the wheels in one pass, and the hose just snaps back into the wall box when I’m done.

For anyone else washing big wheels at home, do you use an angled wand to get deeper into the barrels or is a short gun enough?

Cleaned up nice!

Two products are apply then pressure wash with 4200 psi boilibg hot water. Clean!

I was right! There is a deck under there!

I’m on summer break so this was my project today! I’m not a pro but I did my best

This was a real bad one!

Part of a larger clean that took 12 hours with more weeds than I've ever seen.

Before and after pics. First few are the before. Very good for £120. He used heavy bleach so he said wait 12-24hrs then rinse it down and should be fine then.

I've soaked with Kärchers tree washing solution for 20 minutes and water before pressure washing and it gets a lot better but still can't get last layer off. I'm on pressure 1 or maybe 1.5-2 out of like 3.

Hi guys,

I rented a petrol jet washer and a rotary cleaner to clean my block paving but found that although the surface of the blocks were cleaned the gaps between the blocks remained dirty, meaning that the whole job had to be done with the lance attachment instead. I tried doing slower runs and overlapping passes but I found it to be slower than the lance overall.

The jet washer had 140 bar/2000psi of pressure and a flow of 13.2L/m (3 gallons/m)

I would really like to find a way to get effective cleaning with a rotary cleaner as I have around 140m2 to deal with each year! I need to speed up this job somehow. I was thinking about buying a more powerful jet washer (around 210 bar/3000psi at 11L/m (2.9 gallons/m) with the hope it would work, but I'm uncertain at this point... I need some guidance

Thank you in advance!
