are
multipurpose outdoor cleaning machines, for cleaning cars. In order to
keep away from damaging the automobile, you must use low-pressure
settings so that the paint is not chipped off. Other precautions must be
thought about as well, to preserve the washer's longevity and protect
yourself.
The Pressure Washer
A utilizes
an engine to push high-pressure water from a hose through a nozzle to
clean cars, driveways and houses. To use a pressure washer, you must
connect a water hose to an outdoor spigot and then to the water pump.
Add pressure washer-safe soap by a hose to the pump to thoroughly clean
your car. There is a adjuster to adjust the pounds-per-square inch (PSI)
to fit your need. The lowest pressure setting is the best for cars.
Pressure
Turn
your pressure to around 2500 PSI or lower. Many pressure washers go
into 3000 PSI, which is much too high for cleaning cars. If you use that
pressure setting, it will rip the paint off of your car and will
actually cut toes off.
Soap Mixture
Do
not use common household cleaning soaps or car cleaning soaps that are
not designed for pressure washers. Both of those cleaning agents will
clog the pump, potentially breaking it. Use soaps that are designed for
both and
cars as these are the only cleaning solutions that will work without
any problem. Most soaps label whether or not it is pressure washer safe.
Nozzles
Use
the wide spray nozzle to spread out the water to cover more area. The
other nozzles are better suited for housing, sidewalks and other areas,
but not for homes. To use this nozzle, snap it into the front of the
spray gun.
Safety
Do
not aim the hose at anyone as it will scratch and cut anyone even at
lower pressure. Do not rinse your hands and feet under the hose as well
for the same reason. Make sure your car is away from the house, so that
it does not hit any windows or damage the house's sides.
How to Use the Gun
Stay
at least to feet away from the automobile at all times. This will
maximize the spray distance. Also, never aim directly at the automobile,
but slightly above to keep away from getting scratches from the spray.
Do not spray in place, but move your hand back and forth to overlap.
This way you effectively cover the automobile in the water and soap
material. Start by spraying the engine area, then work your way around
the automobile. Be positive to spray the automobile down with water one
time the automobile is soaped up.
