      @@nueyessoutheast9639 this was awhile ago, but currently using a Northern Tool electric 2000psi cold water pressure washer with a rebuild able CAT pump. I think then I was using a Powerstroke brand electric pressure washer. The pump failed on it a few years ago and replaced it with a heavier duty unit.

    So grateful, time & money saved by watching your videos are very much appreciated.
    Best part is the fact that the tests are not biased by makers sponsoring the tests thus being reliable and true. So rare nowadays

I will note that they also sell Reload, which apparently refreshes it. I have not used it in over a year....

    Would like to find out more about what happened with the nu finish problem. It’s cheap, easy to get and except for that one test exceeded expectations. This IS the best test of product on the internet and non sponsored which is probably why your vids aren’t “trending”. Lucky I found it.

      That would be very interesting, especially if some come back or if others are killed. Nobody is doing such long term tests so a mild decontamination, a bit like Labocosmetica use on their coatings would be something I haven't seen done any where else.
