Man I'm sorry to hear that. I looks like you're using that bump in the road as a stepping stone as motivation to move on to bigger and better things. Keep pushing forward 💪 I just watched your buffer tank video looking forward to seeing your progress.
@@domgiambanco8819 went to my local pressure washing shop and had them put in the appropriate nozzles for 4GPM machine and I have zero issues. Obviously I'm going to walk slower than I would if I had an 8 Gpm machine so I would advise if you go with a larger unit like this walk a little slower and you should have no issues. I also recommend a post-treatment of about 3% and it'll look as good as new 🤘🏿 thanks for commenting
It might be a dumb question but do you have to unreel the whole pressure hose before using or can you still have some winded up while pressure washing?
@@LGPressureWashing not a dumb question. I've asked that before myself 🤣 what I like to do is take off the amount that I need because I want full water flow. I always take off at least 100 ft of hose even if I only need 50ft. I do know some washers that keep the hose on the reel. I just don't think it's a good idea because the hose expands under pressure which could be a problem if it is still on the reel 👀. That's actually a great question my guy thanks for commenting 🤘🏾
Excellent question. I started with flyers, door knocking and business cards. Of course I spoke to basically all of my friends and family and asked them to let me wash their houses and their parents houses 🤣
I go straight from the spigot but I know that some direct drive pressure washers will pull from a tank 🤘🏾 typically you would want the tank to be elevated above the pressure washer though
@@joshuahfields4418 hey bro! I usually end up buying mine at Walmart $5.67 a gallon because I don't live near a bulk supplier 😭 I add the cost into my quote though so It doesn't bother me too much. Yo thanks for commenting 💯
Yeah there's really no such thing as soft wash hose so we all use air hose. The most popular hose is Flexzilla. I preferred this hose because it was half the price and the stuff is awesome! www.amazon.com/VEVOR-Air-Hose-inch-250/dp/B0BTY8T6XT/ref=asc_df_B0BTY8T6XT/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=650519467113&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=16760301783030736401&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9014227&hvtargid=pla-1992925011566&psc=1
You can even use garden hose if you wanted to. The problem with that is it will not last as long and it's not nearly as flexible but it is a lot cheaper

I will say since I've been using the precision valves I like those a lot more. These valves actually have more tactical feedback and they stay exactly where you put them. I didn't have any problems with the pentair valves, but I've heard of some horror stories with build quality

First item is a pressure hose reel. Typically you spend around $250 this one is $99. I mention Facebook Marketplace multiple times ( cheaper than retail stores) I also mentioned Amazon again much cheaper than retail. The popular softwash hose by flexzilla usually goes for around $250. This one was $99 l. The second hose I mentioned I spent $125 again, the more popular brands go for $250. Most softwash systems that include a proportioning system go for around $2,500 this one was $900. Reminding people to ask around for free equipment sounds like pretty good advice to me but you obviously would rather pay so go right ahead. In just the four items I mentioned above, there is over $2,500 in savings. I may not be helping you out my guy but I have plenty of viewers that have been very thankful. Sorry this video didn't fulfill your needs 🤘🏾
Good job man! I did the same, that set up will do you good man, time for the leads to roll in
Thanks my man. I appreciate the kind words!!!!🤘🏾

Yeah I got super lucky 💯 cheapest ones I see used near me is asking $650😮
Great video. Thank you!

nice vid but an air hose for your soft washing ????
Air hose is code word for a hybrid hose 🤘🏾

Unfortunately, it is an amazing hose. I say unfortunate because they no longer sell these for the low price of $119. They are now $200 😭

Where? 👀
Oh yeah the 3/8 inexpensive the half inch is what I use and it's 200
Is the water pump still working?
Absolutely. I've had zero issues with the Softwash System. Just make sure to rinse after every wash🤘🏾 thanks for commenting
How does the surface cleaner work with just 4gpm? Amy streaking?
