    👌 Full block pave pressure washer and chemical deep clean 👍 Satisfying cleaning video - pressure washing ASMR. Multi view with POV video.
    Power washing with a sodium hypochlorite (chlorine beach) chemical pre treat using the Dosatron chemical dosing unit.
    Block paving needs regular maintenance in order to keep it looking clean. Moss and weeds can quickly overtake a block driveway. Cleaning block paving isn't hard, but it's very messy and needs re sanding afterwards.
    ⭐️ This driveway hadn't been cleaned in years. There was some heavy moss and weed growth that needed removing. The area was pre treated using the Dosatron chemical dosing unit with a sodium hypochlorite solution (chlorine bleach). It was then given a high pressure jet washing with a twin headed turbo lance.

    Dosatron chemical dosing unit - For applying sodium hypochlorite (chlorine bleach) solution
    Twin headed turbo lance - For those stubborn weeds and lichen spores
    Wide angle rinsing lance
    Squeegee - Surprisingly good at moving muck and water

      You see a nice central drain and think result, then after 15mins you realisebits either blocked or a soak away. It did drain eventually so all good.

    Hi Phil great video as usual. Just a question about the Dosatron. How do you clean your’s after use? Do you rinse it out and how? I have bought one and hoped to get some tips from you on best practices when using it 😁. Love to see a new video off your new van set up sometime. 👍

    • @DirtyDriveAway

      Yeah I rinse it through with fresh water. I have an old hypo drum that I cut. I fill it with water and rinse the unit through after use.

      😂 I need to read the instructions to learn my ratios The 2 jobs I have used it on I have been using it at 25% then then screwing it half way down to draw up fresh water to clean thinking that was 50%🙄and drawing up more water. Time for new glasses and some reading. Cheers 👍

    • @DirtyDriveAway
      @DirtyDriveAway  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@christophercunningham856 no 25% is the strongest mix, so that will draw up the quickest. If you wind the mixer down that will weaken the mix and thereby draw up less. I also have the bypass valve on mine which you can flick on and it will bypass the mixing and just push through fresh water.

  • @Nillersoon40
    @Nillersoon40 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    ups just an idea. Can it be possible to run 4 turbos with 2 left spinning and 2 right spinning. Allowing the water and not just the angle to move the dirt in a fixed direction? Maybe a competitor to your fanzy blue one?

    • @DirtyDriveAway
      @DirtyDriveAway  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you ran 4 nozzles like that they would have to be small. In fact pa or suttner turbos only go down to a size 030 meaning running 4 would equate to massive orifice and you would have low pressure, they would also be heavy. Not all machines are even capable of running the twin nozzle lance due to low pressure.

      Don't really need to mask with the low dilution but the surfactant does mask it to an extent. When using strong doses I sometimes add a flavour to the drum.

    Maaan so many questions! Have you tried 35% Hydrogen percarbonate insted of the hypo? In my country I will be able to buy that for cheap compared. It is delivered via laundrymat companies.

    • @DirtyDriveAway
      @DirtyDriveAway  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Never heard of hydrogen percarbonate. I've used sodium percarbonate (laundry oxy powder) but it's very hard to mix without really hot water and because its not a biocide it won't kill algae or fungal spores. It also leaves a big powdery mess behind if it's not rinsed really well.

      @@Nillersoon40 all I know is hydrogen peroxide is usually used for bleaching hair lol. I dont tend to mess with other chems as you never know on their compatability with water or sewage/drainage. Sodium hypochlorite is not deemed harmful as it dilutes so quickly. I mean you chuck the stuff down ya bog so it can't be that bad.

      No not retired, to be honest if the jobs right I will use it. They are bloody expensive and the service kits are pricey at around £270 a throw. It seems to eat bearings if not stripped and greased every season. Had to replace them at the beginning of the year as they had broken up.
