Just for clarification, the dirty sides of homes are the north side. It's the same north facing side that Moss will choose to grow on trees. Remember, if you're lost in the woods, look for the moss on trees to point you in a certain direction.
You are gonna be super lost in Florida.....
@@user-jg1qb2fz8e I grew up in Daytona bruv. That spanish moss grows everywhere!
You have been the most informative of all the channels and I can’t thank you enough for that. After watching your videos, I approach jobs with so much more confidence. Thank you 🙏
I think a new concrete cleaning video would be very educational.
Yes, I was thinking the same thing. I’m a newbie so need all the information I can get.
I've been using very little surfactant in my house washing just a little splash of dish soap so I can tell when I'm soaping awesome results .
This Was Dope 🔥
Thank you
kyndal subdivision! nice job!
Just curious on the second property that didn’t have organics what do you use on it ? Water and surfactant ? or do you still use sh ? I ask because in my area there’s a ton of new builds . Thanks for the content solid as usual
One additional benefit of surfactants is they do a pretty good job of keeping the windows from spotting up. As a window cleaner of 25 years and has added pressure washing/soft washing this past year, I’ve been pretty impressed on how the windows look when using a surfactant compared to not using it. Nothing compares to having a professional window cleaning but the surfactant does just enough to leave the windows in a pretty decent condition. Just my .02
Hey Kyle, thanks for the video just wondering do you dilute your eliminator?
In that first house wash, were you using your 8gpm or AR45? Thank you for the great content Kyle! 💪🏻
Question when it comes to cleaning on a windy day...
If we clean a building where there are a lot of cars parked, will the chemicals getting blown away make any permanent marks on any windshields or on the paint? That's my "biggest" concern when I'm out cleaning.
Great info .
I did my first job this passed weekend and boy $300 couldn’t be earned easier.
Hell yeah good work dude
One question. I removed the rust from my side walks but it keeps coming back any advise on that ?
Thank you. If this is the free content, the paid content must be awesome
What kind of shill comment is this?
Everytime 🔥
Thanks ds from sh and soap from mix tank? Nice video
First off good video second off thank you for saying that isn’t it expensive you said what I always say I first started off paying after the first couple jobs from then on out it’s considered I would say free money the customers paying for it you’re working for it but they’re paying for it. Thank you again. 👏👍
Solid vid as always! Its so sad that this pest of a customer has become standard for industry leaders like yourself Kyle. Yall give access to EVERYTHING online and these people still test yalls sanity. Stay positive, and know you’re helping people
Do you use surfactant when post treating? Does the color of it not leave any coloration or stains?
Good evening Kyle I hope you're doing well. I would like to know how much eliminator you use when you roof wash. 1 ounce per gallon 12 1/2% sh or more
Thank you
Nice video! For concrete surfaces, does the surfactant help prevent the solution from drying out as quickly from the heat/sun? I’m just starting out and only using SH only. dries out in seconds. And how much surfactant do you use per gallon of SH?
Used Elemonator today!
What about laundry detergent? Can this be used when first starting out?
Hey Kyle,
great insight on surfactant. Where can I get the surfactant you are using in this video? thanks again brother!
pressure tek
Love your videos very informative, I live in so cal, and my problem is heat, I'm in 117 degree weather, when I'm applying sodium hypochlorite and surfactants it dries so fast, should I start doing the house or driveways in sections?
What's my best option on everything drying so fast?
Pre wet and yes do the hot sunny sides first.
Kyle, do you know what putting together a rig like Medusa would cost? I’m new to your channel and the industry but want to start rigged up properly
How is elemonator with rinsing? Does it take forever to rinse off vs using no surfactant?
How many gallons of SH would that 1 Gal of Eleminator mix with?
Hello my friend. Great videos. Can you PM me or tell me who made your aluminum ladder racks. I have basically the same set up. It's new to me. I want to have a larger square frame ladder rack like you have. I don't want like 1 inch tubing
Do you use surfactant when down streaming
How do you use it
How do like you roof snot ?
So if you're using 15% sh, when you downstream you're stronger then the 1% normal. Have you had any issues with browning grass or plants?
Hey Kyle, I work in marketing for Pressure Tek. Would you mind if I use this for some future advertisments/social posts?
Can I use laundry detergent
Hey man. Im still pretty new to this business. Learning as I go. I’ve had an issue where just about every roof cleaning that I do with gutters, leaves lines on the gutters from the over spray that slides down the gutters. Is this something that is normal? If so, is that something you include in the pricing or sell it separately? Because I hate to see those lines on the gutters. And I have yet to do a roof without gutters, but I can imagine that the run off will come down the roof edge and leaves lines as well? I would greatly appreciate your recommendations! Thanks bro
Clean the gutters then
You gotta keep the gutters wet
What mask and filters are you using
just being a dork here. but i think yall should start selling that soap at the least. southeast blah blah have a weird hold on the market and id like an alternative cherry scent. lemon scent reviews are just overflowing with complaints about how they do a poor job of scent cover. love your vids. took a lot of noters on your chem video
Where can I buy a gallon of that Elemonator for $25?
Has anyone used an oxiclean laundry detergent for a surfactant?
Do you always wear a respirator when house washing? If so, does it ever concern the customer ?
Yes and no… always wear one and don’t care what the customer thinks. If you get COPD later in life the customer won’t care
Does that surfactant have a dyed color so when it comes out you know when your downstreaming?
No dye. You don’t need a dye to show you that your pulling chem. You can clearly see your spraying with soap
It’s 16$ a gallon right now at pressure Tek
how much surfactant are you using in your sh mix ?
there instructions are on the bottle
hmm, probably very good,..... if you are in the US
Why are you wearing a respirator house washing?
so I don't breathe in bleach all day....
@@softwashtv6315 what do the customers think though?
Why don’t you license out your formula and have somebody else make it? You could just get a kickback on all sales of your soap
Kyle, I’d encourage you to consider still selling the soap…just cut the hassle of phone calls and the like out of it. Here it is take it or leave it read the instructions on the bottle. I’d like to get some it’s sad it sounds like people have ruined it for everybody on being able to buy it from you.
자막 올려요.. 뭔말인지 ??
Damn 600 jobs, man I can't get 1 fucking job
