You sir were born to teach, I’ve been cracking my head on this so hard it’s not even funny thank you so much for taking the time to explain this so clearly, God Bless you and your family.
@@ScottCleansIt it went well but I don't know if the soap was working the way it was supposed to. I washed a house and driveway and only went down about 3inch in the soap bucket.
I just built a box with GF valves. Basically all the same parts. I did it knowing I should have made the top of the manifold 3/4 inch but, I did exactly what others are doing 1/2 inch the whole way but, I did do it right down to the Noco charger I just did it myself and I am glad I did. (Even though I would not "eyeball" it so much on the next one). It is the way to go!
I got the smaller mini pro and had no idea when my valves were open or closed since they were not pulling nothing. Fast forward, got it working now just needed to figure out my math. Thanks brother plain and simple.
The mold in S.Florida (Miami-Dade) literally bakes onto roofs like a hard shell on an M&M candy. On 90% of most roofs require a few costs of 12.5% of SH. Houses and concrete can just be downstreamed.
Can I ask a question. It's 340am in Tennessee I can't sleep im binge watching your videos. Why don't you flush out your bleach line ??? I have the expensive George Fisher proportioner that's very over priced junk. If I don't flush the bleach line I have to replace it a lot .
So I was doing some math and looked up washing detergent at the store 2 gallons of liquid detergent is roughly 10 dollars so for a 25 gallon container is 125 dollars so do you dilute the soap by adding it to water first or do you use straight soap and use what percentage you like also how many gallon tank is your soap and SH just trying to lean man it’s kind of confusing but you explain things very well
Have you thought about putting lines from water tank to the bleach line and soap line. That way you can wash out the proportioner? Essentially you have ball valves on those two, so you can shut the water off when you need to actually use bleach and soap
Hey Tony with TX PRO PRESSURE/SOFTWASH I'm fixing to install a manifold looking into different applications which requires different percentages of bleach but in your bleach tank I'm using 10% bleach strength is it pure straight bleach that your putting in the tank oh the tank is 50 gallons BTW or do you add water with it I'm assuming is pure straight bleach since the manifold will be doing all the mixing kinda want to make sure. Thanks bud.
Youll learn that as you get farther in your business you will need a little pressure on some stuff, using just the 12v and mixer valve isnt a do it all system. We used it for everything when i first started and now we only use it for roofs. For example some lichen and thick algae we use a white tip jrod tip on brick that will not come off with just sh only. Removing dirtdaubers with an 8gpm shooter tip is a life saver and quick. We only downstream now with the 8gpm.
@@ScottCleansIt another cool thing with having a metering valve on the water line, If you do have to use Walmart bleach in the tank, (6%) you can compensate for that by shutting the water valve off incrementally so you can still get your desired percentage at the wand.
Where do you flush the pump after you’re done with the job or do you flush the pump while rinsing? Also, why do you run 2 separate 12v systems? What is the second one for?
Very cool! How much bleach do you usually keep in your tank? Considering you dont have to mix and make batches, it doesnt hurt to keep a healthy amount of bleach allways in the tank right? Thanks for the vids man, i have learned alot!
I hope Coty can find someone to make some round indicator plates to go behind the blend manifold knobs. If you get a chance look at Midwest Equipment. They have a Hydro-Mixer that is design like the one you have but with the indicator plate (increments). It's a pretty cool design. I wish you the best with your new equipment. Michael C - (WA)
@@southeastsoftwash4020 Oh, pretty cool. Can't wait to see it. I hope i didn't offend. I just thought the indicator plate was a pretty cool feature for the people who are having a hard time with adjusting the blend manifold knobs. Michael C - (WA)
Walmart soap? What ratio are mixed to water? I have a 15 gal soap tank.Congratulations on the skid from Cody he passed his blessings on.You have a money maker there.
@@ScottCleansIt what are the best things to wash in regards to making money with that rig? Is it just residential and concrete that isn't extremely caked with dirt?
Are you diluting the laundry soap in the soap tank, or do you just put straight soap in the soap tank and let the portioner do the work? If you are diluting the soap prior to putting it in the tank what is the ratio?
Subscribe!!!!
Hey scott would you be willing to sell that northern tool soft wash kit sense you upgraded I don’t have the 500 for a new one
@@country6368 nah I’m gonna keep it man.
@@country6368 i got mine brand new never used if your still looking for one
Question. Can you hook water from the house w/ a hose, to the water side, if you don’t have a water tank?
@@apexprepper378 depends on your gallons per minute if the faucet doesn't have enough flow for the machine. It will burn up
Finally ! Damn,I've been watching TH-cam for 2 days for a manifold explanation 😢 Too many people trying to tell us how smart they are😂 Thank you!
Great info - plain and simple
I likes it plain and simple

Thanks a lot
@@ScottCleansIt
You’re very welcome.
That is the clearest explanation I have heard on mixing SH ratios. Thank you so much.
You look like Carl from Sling Blade on that thumbnail!!!!!!
Mmmmmmhhhhhmmmmmm
@@ScottCleansIt you ought notta saaaaaid that
Gotta say, the Batch Buster stands out. It's making a difference.
I've been seeing these in videos, and they always just made my head hurt, you made this just so incredibly simple. Thank you, man!
Thanks man !! Very helpful - simple and appreciated. We are converting to Blend over Batch.
After 4yrs of batch mixing I added a blend manifold to my rig this year. Today will be the 1st day I use it 2.9.22.
Hope this video helped
@@ScottCleansIt it went well but I don't know if the soap was working the way it was supposed to. I washed a house and driveway and only went down about 3inch in the soap bucket.

Thanks!!!!!! Very helpful!!!
This was a good one sir. Very informative
yea man
Genius explication!
Thanks for explaining the blend manifold you made it simple to understand.
Man if I could shake your hand I would, this was much needed info. Jesus bless you
Yessir
I just built a box with GF valves. Basically all the same parts.

Thanks this made it very easy to understand
I'm so glad to see how fast you have recovered from your health setback. I have been praying for you!!!!.
Thanks a bunch
Thank you so much bro
Great video brother, keep them coming.
Thank you for that KISS explanation
Keep it simple stupidddddd
I got the smaller mini pro and had no idea when my valves were open or closed since they were not pulling nothing. Fast forward, got it working now just needed to figure out my math. Thanks brother plain and simple.
Thanks for the breakdown on it. Yes, it all makes sense.
This was real simple and helpful for me as I just finished building my skid thats dedicated to softwashing. Thanks for your content!
Thank you for All your videos and sharing your thoughts and knowledge. Super helpful. 😎
I've been using a batch system but after seeing your explanation of the manifold I too need to change. That is so simple. Thanks for the video.
Just found you WHASSUUUPPP Brother!!!
Yo
Great information man !
Best breakdown thanks
Perfect, thank you
Thank you and god bless 🙏
Man!!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!! Finally something really helpful
I built one a couple months ago and can’t believe I waited because I didn’t think it would be that much of a difference.
Bet you learned lol

Danggggg
Need Cody to hook me up with a skid! You earned it bro 🙌
I have a northern tool I just take the tube out and put it in a 5 gallon bucket to flush the system if I still have a lil bit of chemicals in the tank
That works
Whaaaaattttssss. Uuuuuppppp buddy congratulations on the skid i want one. Of those one day soon
I batched for a year tell I got my Alumni Max in Feb. Like you said I won't go back by choice.
Yep
Bought the south east soft wash trailer a month ago can’t wait to get it
And just got a northern tool softwash unit to start jobs now
Thanks this really helps
It's not you, it's me homie lol. You trying to help though. That's cool.
Very informative!!
Bomb as info bro
That Skid looks Awesome in your garage.... Hopefully one day I've got one in mine
You will
Thank you
Well said. Love the skid. What’s something like that cost? Thanks for the video
Scott thanks for the info/explanation on the blend manifold !
Thanks for sharing ! 👍🏼💪🏼👊🏼

Good infor
You are smooth brother, nice video thanks for explaining how it works so easy to understand .... Whattttzzzzzzaaaaaaauuupp!
Awesome video! Quick question - What brand on the valves or what to look for when searching on Amazon or the net?
Thank you!
Can I ask a question. It's 340am in Tennessee I can't sleep im binge watching your videos. Why don't you flush out your bleach line ??? I have the expensive George Fisher proportioner that's very over priced junk. If I don't flush the bleach line I have to replace it a lot
.
No need with plastic internals. The only thing that it can damage is the little spring in the check valve.
Great video and explanation. Thank you bro
So I was doing some math and looked up washing detergent at the store 2 gallons of liquid detergent is roughly 10 dollars so for a 25 gallon container is 125 dollars so do you dilute the soap by adding it to water first or do you use straight soap and use what percentage you like also how many gallon tank is your soap and SH just trying to lean man it’s kind of confusing but you explain things very well
Yiu have to dilute it. The soap I use is about 1 cup to 14 gallons
THANK YOU ! Subscribed!
What do you use for video editing? It looks like a pretty awesome video. Do you have contact info for your proportional
I just ordered this rig from them! Can't wait till it's ready. Gonna be a 22 hour drive to pick it up though.
Wow. Pace yourself loo
Easy and simple 👌
Thanks for the heads up I’ll know more when I pick mine up.
Excellent presentation thank you. May i ask where you bought your blend system? or recommend?
Thank you God Bless JESUS CHRIST
Subscribed! Great explanation! Even a cave man should be able to set up a ratio. Now....when do we see that new skid in action?
This week
Yeeeees sir thank you for the info brotha!
Yes it helps, thanks!
Thank you for making this clear.
Anytime
Hi Scott! New subscriber. Im new in the business. Do you mind telling me what soap from Walmart is that you exactly get ? Thanks!
I use professional soap now but the cheapest laundry soap
very good lecture. thank you
Thank you.
Great info brother! I just bought a blend manifold too and can't wait to put it to use
Rock on!!!
Great video again Scott, not seen a blend manifold over here in the UK as yet but keep up the good work dude. Go with the flow!
Great video and Great explanation Scott as usual 🤣 you are King of Keeping It Simple!!!!!
Wow thanks for making it clear. I got it.
Cool
Question, do you need an additional water tank to soft wash or can you run it directly off the water spigot
I have a water tank, soap tank and bleach tank with a hose to keep the tank full that we run to the customers water supply
Scott you have helped so much, thank you! Just ordered one from Cody!
Awesome!!!
What's up Scott, from down south LA. Can you do a deeper tour of your new skid. Great content. Keep it up bro!!
Yep
i'm having an issue with water back flowing through my soap valve and back into my soap tank.. thoughts? I have the same valves and setup as you
See if there's plastic in the check valve
good info
I wish you would have been my HS math teacher!! 😂🤣
Lol right
Awesome tips! I just started pressure washing on my channel
Nice

No
Great tutorial Scott. I would like to get one but damn they're expensive.
You can get them with a lease. All payments are 100% tax deductible

@@southeastsoftwash4020 factualsssssss
It all pumps through you 5.5 12 volt?
Do you rinse the pump after each use?
Yes
Where do you flush the pump after you’re done with the job or do you flush the pump while rinsing? Also, why do you run 2 separate 12v systems? What is the second one for?
Somewhere safe on the property, while rinsing and it's a backup side or 2 man setup
Very cool! How much bleach do you usually keep in your tank? Considering you dont have to mix and make batches, it doesnt hurt to keep a healthy amount of bleach allways in the tank right? Thanks for the vids man, i have learned alot!
I refill once every week or every 2 weeks depending on how much we need.
I hope Coty can find someone to make some round indicator plates to go behind the blend manifold knobs.
If you get a chance look at Midwest Equipment. They have a Hydro-Mixer that is design like the one you have but with the indicator plate (increments). It's a pretty cool design.

@@simpleman7727 it's an honest answer. Don't overthink it. It's soap.
What laundry soap is best and doesn't leave streaks or anything?
All laundry soap seems to
Nice video Scott!!
Thanks
The only reason for the surfactant is to male the sh stick to the wall? Does the soap not help lift the dirt from the wall?

I was wondering if use dilute the bleach in the bleach tank or do you just leave it straight bleach?
Bkeach tank, water tank, soap tank
So you do dilute tanks?
Are you diluting the laundry soap in the soap tank, or do you just put straight soap in the soap tank and let the portioner do the work? If you are diluting the soap prior to putting it in the tank what is the ratio?
Straight soap won't pump. Yiu have to dilute
