What an awesome transformation! I will be getting my hands on an AR next Friday, or in 203.5 hours, or 12,210 minutes, or 732,600 seconds... but who is counting... Great job as always, Fresh!
I just finished a 3300 sq metal roof took 6 hours it hadn't been cleaned in 4 years 😢 it must be the xjet just don't have the staying power . You are the man I need to upgrade to your roof pump status.
I love my M5! I use my 3-7gpm for all my wand work, even cutting in concrete. Being able to fan out to wash 1.5 to 2 deck boards at once is time saving. I'm waiting for my 2-3 gpm M5 to arrive for a little more pressure at the tip.
Mike they make a remote shutoff and start system for the gas roof pump engine now, that way you can shut it down if you need to from behind the house or away from the trailer. Just stay on the gun, then shut it off if needed, then fire it back up when needed, its has saved me so much time on jobs when I use it, It will even work on your power washers, different module but same type.
@@TheFreshRinse The one for the gas pump was if I remember right 550ish, then the one for the gx690 was about a grand, I think they make them for the new IGX also
Huge facts! Had 3 houses to wash on the same street.. Called my buddy for help and he’s just getting into the business and in 6 hours I washed 2 houses and all he did was a one side and turbo nozzled a set of steps 😂😂😂 he used like 4 gallons of bleach and didn’t even do the whole side right I was so confused
Very cool brosef! 😎 Hey a question for you. If I were to take some online training of any kind, other than these rad vids, whom would you recommend or would you recommend taking that path at all? I know the school of hard knocks is a great teacher, but I don't want to wreck someones day by not having the basic knowledge of different surfaces and what's best to use in different situations. Would love to have guidance on the back office type stuff of running the business as well. Anyone out there that isn't full of hype and the money is well spent with? I've watched a ton of YT and will continue to do so, but a place where the info is compiled in a class setting for quick reference would be awesome! Thanks again for all you're doing to promote this business man. God bless!
Mike at All American Pressure Washing has a good course, I hear. I’m sure there aren’t any BAD courses. As for the business stuff? I’m just not really sure. Great question
Not real familiar with the ar but the comet has bypass lever if it's at max finger needs to be on trigger, if in bypass at startup and shutdown your ok. Like the volume on that ar.
Hey fresh rinse! Love the video! How'd you get your remote bypass setup on your ar45 system?? Where'd you place the actuating ball valve on the system to turn off only bleach with your proportioner set up? thanks in advance! new sub :)
Another great video. Got a question. I'm struggling with this. I've cleaned a couple bare wood decks. I've got a 5 and a half gallon machine. I pre treat with SH then use the white tip to clean. The deck looks great while cleaning but once it dries is looking white and chalky. Do you have any advice on how to fix this. This has happened on the last couple jobs I've done and I'm at a loss here on what I'm doing wrong. I'm gonna end up ruining someone's deck. If you have any advice I'd really appreciate it. Thanks alot.
Nice work Mike! Now that you’ve been using the Powerboss gun on the AR, how does it compare to the red gun? When will the online course be ready, lol? It would be a best seller, just sayin’
No flow pro and being so nervous about messing up windows or other surfaces that I probably take too much time making sure nothing dries, is what makes my hw time longer. Lol
If im using a diy kit from northern tool 5.5gpm softwash system.. am I supposed to rinse buy simply taking out my drop stick feom the chemical or do i rinse usinh the customer's spigot?
Fresh what was your mix for washing this home did you use any bleach? I'm still trying to understand what mixture to kill organic growth on houses. Thanks for your reply earlier
I am getting sick of using a 12v and have never really downstreamed. I only use the pressure washer for flatworld. In my mind, an ar45 seems like it would be great on house washes. Do you think downstreaming or ar45 is faster?
It took me about 3 hrs to wash my first house because I was rinsing the windows 3 to 4 times not wanting to leave dry marks from the SH~ was I doing it right?
Hi Mike - I clean and seal concrete in Columbus Ohio. I don't power wash houses but would be interested in learning. Any way I could come down there and learn from the best for a day?/ Thanks Tim
Hey brother. Thanks for reaching out. I delegate all my education to my RUclips videos. No offense at all. If I accepted ever offer, I could likely never work a day in my life. ON SECOND THOUGHT! LOL
No body will answer my question with weep holes no one. So what’s the story with them? Set expectations or what because every single job I’ve done with vinyl I get drips that are very noticeable even when going with the siding and aiming high to let it come down on the siding. Mike I need your help
Rinse well first, with a mist. Then apply your SH. Do NOT spray towards the open end of the vinyl slats. Spray away from them. Rinse from a distance with a mist.
So you hit the house with 3%? I can see why it would be faster. Im just downstreaming everything at this point. One day id like to upgrade to a chem pump and after seeing this definitely worth getting gas
Downstreaming is plenty for any house I’ve ever washed. I hit it with 3% on this side simply because that’s what I was washing the deck with. All other sides got 1% or less.
@@TheFreshRinse do you recommend anything use for black streaks and all that off campers. I work in a big camp ground all summer in New York and they don't allow anything with bleach. Unless you get like something with it in it that doesn't hurt plants or anything
@@SL_PressureWashing Thank you. I would use enough SH to kill the organic growth, then pressure with a white tip. Possibly oxalic acid afterwards. But, I don’t typically do much wood.
It has happened. Yes, I get scared. Again, my tape was left at another job. I have some in my garage. Just have to remember to take it. Where are your vids dude? Any updates???
@TheFreshRinse how much can you make a week starting off? I have a 4.0 gpm machine with a x jet and a 20 inch surface cleaner and I'm wanting to go into the business
I often use a surface cleaner on composite deck. The problem here is, the deck was so far gone, I was afraid that the surface cleaner would leave obvious circles that I could never blend with a tip. So, nuke and M5 Twist it was!
@@Thetruthhurtstrump2024 All I know is I bought a 10 GPM General pump at 3000 psi. I’m not sure why it matters. You watched the video, right? The wash is perfect!
@@TheFreshRinse because I am filing a class action lawsuit against Honda and general pomp and I’m trying to get everyone to realize that this combination does not produce the specs promise

💪work brother.
Thank you sir
houses is a quick job. And very good in pay as well
Amazing
Thank you

With a portable 4gpm machine, no hose reels it takes me 2 to 3 hours to wash most houses.
You’re doing fine. Keep it up!

My average time for a 2000 sq ft house is 1 and a half hours 🤷🏻♂️. I can’t stop rinsing
How many homes have you washed
@@seattleprowash5464 🤷🏻♂️maybe 800
That’s about my time too
I just got a 4gpm 4400 psi for my first machine. Can’t wait to get started n get better equipment
You have my first “real” machine. Is it belt driven?

Sodium Metasilicate is a much bettter product for wood cleaning than SH. Same process.
Looking good and Fresh. Do you know if you can paint Trex decking?
I’ve never heard of anybody painting a composite deck.
Nice work Mike! Now that you’ve been using the Powerboss gun on the AR, how does it compare to the red gun? When will the online course be ready, lol? It would be a best seller, just sayin’
Thank you Gary. I really like it, but I’m not sure there is a night/day difference.
Great video question what ds injector u use for the 10gpm machine? Does it bog the engine down at all if u pull with a 2.1 or 1.8? Thanks
Thank you.? I use a 2.1 or 2.3
No flow pro and being so nervous about messing up windows or other surfaces that I probably take too much time making sure nothing dries, is what makes my hw time longer. Lol
Completely understandable
Great job. What brand is your power washer N the PSI. Thanks
My pressure washer is a Honda GX690 with an 8GPM 3500 PSI pump
Wow, looks great. So when is that book coming out ????
LOL
Would brushing the decks have a made difference with the staining? I understand a stain is a stain. Just thought I'd ask
That’s a great question. I don’t think so. Those composite decks real tend to soak in the solution
🎉6% for decks is where it’s at. Thank you for your videos Mike 😊
Thank you brother!
Did you leave a final post treat on the deck or did you just SH it then clean it with the M5 and water
Yes, I left a final post treat via downstreaming
If im using a diy kit from northern tool 5.5gpm softwash system.. am I supposed to rinse buy simply taking out my drop stick feom the chemical or do i rinse usinh the customer's spigot?
I’m not sure what that unit is. Regardless, rinse however you have to. I wish I were better help to you.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Fresh what was your mix for washing this home did you use any bleach? I'm still trying to understand what mixture to kill organic growth on houses. Thanks for your reply earlier
I washed the house with bleach using a downstream injector. Probably 1% or less.
@@TheFreshRinse thanks! recently discovered your channel and its really useful

God i wish houses were that simple in my area.
I hear you. What makes them so difficult?
What do you do if you blow an outlet and is it dangerous
As of late, I’ve been very good about taping over the outlets. But if I blow one, I usually replace it.
how often your electrical outlets catching on fire ?
It has happened. Rarely
What did you use chemical wise?
Sodium Hypochlorite
Would you clean a aluminum house the same way as you would a vinyl?.
Yes sir. No difference
Thanks
Hey Mike
What kinda soap you use with SH ?
Eleminator
So you hit the house with 3%? I can see why it would be faster. Im just downstreaming everything at this point. One day id like to upgrade to a chem pump and after seeing this definitely worth getting gas
Downstreaming is plenty for any house I’ve ever washed. I hit it with 3% on this side simply because that’s what I was washing the deck with. All other sides got 1% or less.
About how much chem did you use?
Gosh, I’m not sure. That was a long time ago. A lot, that’s for sure.
What is the gun for the soft wash called?
Waterboss 750
Cant wait for this years vids 😢
I’m excited to get started!
What soap do you use? I really would love to know. Thank you
I use sodium hypochlorite. Which is pool shock or chlorine

Hi Mike
Hey buddy!
I was under the impression that sh was a no no on wood sense wood is an organic
Could be composite
Yeah he said it's treks
It’s composite. That being said, I would have done the same with wood, then used a white tip to remove all the SH residue.
Great video with an impeccable breakdown! How would you approach a deck that has pressure treated lumber?
@@SL_PressureWashing Thank you. I would use enough SH to kill the organic growth, then pressure with a white tip. Possibly oxalic acid afterwards. But, I don’t typically do much wood.
What gun are you using
www.texaspressurewashingstore.com/product/750-soft-wash-special-soft-wash-gun/
I’m wondering if you would use some more pressure on the deck would’ve looked better?😮
I don’t think so, but possibly. The deck is in rough shape.
@@TheFreshRinse You probably did it right. You are a professional and you know best!
@@matthewrobinson6297 I appreciate you very much.
Good job on the video, nice narration and the music levels were not overpowering.
Thank you Jacob.
Fresh how could you be so wild not taping outlets ! ?
Are you not worried about blowing up outlets and tripping fuses? 😮
It has happened. Yes, I get scared. Again, my tape was left at another job. I have some in my garage. Just have to remember to take it.
Where are your vids dude? Any updates???
Is that the hydro d30 pump?
AR45
@TheFreshRinse how much can you make a week starting off? I have a 4.0 gpm machine with a x jet and a 20 inch surface cleaner and I'm wanting to go into the business
How do you go about payment of a customer is not home?
I text the invoice afterwards. They pay online.

@@calklobuchar I use Markate as my CRM. When I send an invoice through Markate, the customer can pay via Credit Card, Zelle, CashApp, Venmo or PayPal

question?? why not just use a surface cleaner on the deck ??? would that be to aggresive??

@@TheFreshRinse copy, thanks for all the info and advice. Last question, is 2% on the house too much? What’s the ideal ratio?
@@wellsmd1 2% isn’t too much… it’s just unnecessary. It’s a waste of chem… and a risk to the plant life. 1% is almost always enough.
