G.P standard

30 to 40 min if you are not adding water while you clean

@@stwanspressurewashing2282 what do you mean by not adding water... bc ik you have to have it to wash obviosly. do you mean using the water from the client putting it in the tank as you go or just using the tank alone... also what chems do you use if you dont mind me asking....

Yes we add water as we clean from the customer's home.

well ik that your wording confused me srry... yk i do a lil pressure washing so ik...

Thanks I appreciate it, and ya some jobs are worse than others. My machine runs at 3500 but I lose psi with 200 feet of hose. Using a surface cleaner it basically reduces it in half so the total is about 2800 at the end of the hose and that is divided by 2 so each tip is about 1400 each or so. But ya like 2800 or so but I can adjust it with my throttle down depending on the job. Hope that helps. (Ps it's even lower than that because angled tips the rotation of the bar the fact that the pressure is hitting water and how fast you move, so it's hard to tell exactly how low the pressure that hits the tile is probably like 1000 to 1300). Pretreatment is key otherwise you need to move slower and more pressure to get the same visual results. Also I lightly post treat after, getting the remaining pores cleaned for longevity.

Normal shoes from Walmart. Just good balance I guess I get that question a lot.

Much appreciated 😊

Yes most everyone who can not surface clean or walk a roof softwash them. Or if that's how they seen or were told how to clean roofs. Most soft washers have never tried surface cleaning but most surface cleaners have tried soft washing. I have been cleaning for about 15 years so I have continued doing it the way I have mastered. Thanks I hope that. helps.

@stwanspressurewashing2282 Thank.s for the reply. I have been cleaning windows for 27 years(since 15years old) I'm learning more of the pressure washing side. Probably a better clean the way you do it.

Thank you

Well you're gonna start out slow to begin with and if you're not using a 8 gallon per minute washer it's going to be even slower. If it's your first time and you have a 8GPM Id give yourself at least 2 hours up there. You're gonna want to go slow and pay attention.

Nice. Thanks and ya smaller surface cleaners do pack a punch.

8gom low psi

Sh and water

It takes more pressure to remove the buildup and you will not be stopping the growth only removing what was on the surface. Comes back twice as fast.

@@stwanspressurewashing2282 thanks!

Try to always have slack on the opposite side of a peak from where you go up at so the weight of the hose keeps it up. I try to keep 100 feet on the roof at all times myself. I try not to tie off on a vent easy way to rip it off. Hope that helps a bit.

@@stwanspressurewashing2282thanks!

Find a professional to show you how to Softwash a roof

To be completely honest I did that roof right after this one. Down one up another. Lol 🤣

@@stwanspressurewashing2282 nice 🤘🏾

Thank you

Yes a bit but we also have a large tile here as well and I am able to do the same thing. Just a bit slower and more missed spots that need to be touched up after.

@@stwanspressurewashing2282 thank you! Also what make and model of surface cleaner do you use on roofs? And do you have the throttle of the pressure washer up all the way?

General Pump 18 in and it depends on the roof

Thank you

Not with a 8gpm

Not with a 8gpm that's a 30 min job

Thanks, ya most jobs just need a little post treatment and it's good as new. Go Pro 7 and it works nicely, but I'm sure the Go Pro 10 is even better.

👌👌On point answers. Thanks once again maan😊✌️.

Thanks 😊

Thanks. Good luck out there 🤞 be safe

Both but after the video ends I do a TU with a gun. Thanks for the support. :)

@@stwanspressurewashing2282 Alright, thank you...but what i wanted to get is Downstream Injector Percentage % is 👍👍to do both on the Roof.

Most use at about 8% to 10%

😊✊✌️...

Yes and yes. Thanks for the comment. Good luck with your cleaning products.

No pressurized water gets under the tiles, I'm starting from the top and working my way down so the water flows down the tiles. If you were shooting pressure up from the ground towards the faces of the tile then the water has a chance of getting under the tile. When I'm cleaning I always make sure I'm spraying towards the way the tiles are laid so the water will always run down off the tile (like it does when it rains) instead of up towards where the tiles lap over each other. Also please understand that if water (not pressurized) gets under the tile it's not going to hurt the roof because the tiles are not the actual roof, it's just the decorative covering. The roof is the underlayment that's under the tile and it's not water that does the damage if it gets under the tile it's bleach. If bleach gets under the tile that is what turns to salt and corrodes the nails that hold the roof together. I hope that makes sense.

Hey brotha....just chill! Here are the fact! 1) This cat has been doing this for years and has a good reputation. 2) He's 120lbs with wet clothes on. 3) He knows how to walk on tiles. 4) Those tiles are concrete and will withstand pressure from a surface cleaner or a Lance. And He's only using less than 1200 psi. 5) Exterior cleaners are on roofs everyday taking risks and often the only way to get a roof with stains and Algae removed and rinsed. This dude is legit! Don't hate! And I am sure that if he was breaking tiles he wouldn't be as successful as he is.

Thanks all facts 💯 its not for everybody. He would be shocked if he came and spent a day with me on a job. May even learn a few things. Appreciate it.

Do you pre-treat? Try a 18in it has better play with low areas.

Thank you

Just sh downstream
