Man! I found you just in time. I am a decorative concrete artisan in Kansas, and our irrigation systems really do some damage. Obviously, I run into rust issues often on pool decks, patios, etc. I have declined work because of it. This opens me up to new possibilities. I've watched a few videos, and yours have been very enjoyable and informative. Thank you, and keep up the good work!
Doing more than you’re supposed to is nothing but good business and most likely leads to future business with the customer. Always deliver more than expected!
That mix you are using is awesome and you don’t have to rise? That’s a big job. All hands on deck. You seem like a good businessman and a hard worker. Thanks for sharing this video I enjoy following you.
Woooah what a transformation, you all did an awesome job Cliff, gratz on getting the ticket. I remember the vod you did on the front area, great work ❤
Thanks for the tip of using Occilac acid! I thought it was only used to make patio wood brighter. I was using muriatic acid! I payed for it later though the next day. Couldn’t hardly swallow. Thx bro
Lol I made it clear to have cars move and took pics and also videos of the ones that didn't. I even had the HOA Manager come out there to make calls, if they want me to go back they gotta being out that checkbook 😆 🤣
Also you dont seem too worried about the grass and all that so its pretty safe at the concentration your laying it out? And thanks for taking the time to post all this vid
@Lukealang haven't had that yet. This was only 2% so it won't do nothing to it. Granted turf is rare here, I've done work around turf maybe 20 times so far
@PinkFlamingoPowerWash I've had it happen a few times using 1 cup to 1 gallon. Some varieties of grass are more sensitive than others so maybe the breed they are using doesn't burn as easily but plants are much more sensitive to acids than bleach.
Where does the rust come from? I know you have the rebar in the concrete and there can be iron particles in the concrete...but rust on a plastic fence??
The sprinkler system pipes that are underground. The high iron levels causes the stains since there's not a filtration system. Which one this case the filtration system malfunctioned
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash thanks. I happen to watch another one of your videos earlier today and you mentioned the rust coming from the sprinkler system. A crazy amount for sure.
Man looked like a rust bomb went off in that neighborhood. Huge ticket and a whole lot of walking Lol. I think i wouldve rented a golf cart and drove around the neighborhood to spray everything 😂
Thanks. It took me a couple years to get Good and creative. I've used many programs over the years but simplicity wise I think Capcut editing has been the easiest to use. And it doesn't take a lot of memory on your computer.
That will be a discussion to have when someone is hiring you. This was a commercial job so they asked for many different quotes, full driveways, and partial driveways. If it were a residential customer I would just do the whole driveway but that wasnt the case. We were tasked for certain stuff.
Hey pink I will like to know the type of product you use for paver clean and seal, I see you do a job in one day and other people telling me it take three days because you have to make sure it's dry
Hey cliff , get your self a dolly and strap the bucket to it and 100ft of 3/8 air hose from harbor freight to make that sealing pail sprayer more efficient. I did the same thing works so good it’ll make your life a lot easier brother 🤙
I said my dolly broke in the video lol hahahah I think you missed it. I didn't have time to get all that stuff, the job got approved and we had to start it right away
@exodusexteriorsolutions yea I could see that but man it would suck in the small areas like pool decks going around pillars and stuff. For a driveway it would be more beneficial that way it doesn't tangle up.
Mine probably pulls around a 1.5-2% but that's the highest it'll get cause you can only adjust down by adding water to your SH which I never do. Yes the soft wash system is what I can adjust the mix from .01% to 12.5% full strength
That would have been a perfect upsell in the front especially after you did a great job on the interior of the complex, they would have definitely had you come back and do the front, and they would have paid for it.
@dustinjohnson2116 there's only one kind I've seen and that's powder form. I get the 50lb bags from pressure washer products. But Amazon has it in smaller portions like 1, 5, 10 LB bags.
Yes but again its gonna be more expensive and also more prone to killing grass than oxalic acid. If we used Muriatic Acid we would definitely have to rinse to avoid cooking the edges of the grass.
You said 16 oz per gallon so that’s 80 oz on a 5 gallon bucket and then you said two of the cup you used which you said two 32 oz I guess that makes 64 oz on the 5 gallon bucket. So is it 80oz or 64oz?
Our original plan of attack was to make a big batch, use a 12v pump, and run a long section of hose. However, once we got rolling, the 5 gallon buckets were just quick and easy. We didn’t have to mess with hoses getting caught up in landscaping, etc

@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash You got that right my friend. Lol
Oxalic acid gold mine! Well done Cliff
300lbs of oxalic acid lol. That was a boatload
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash wow that’s a lot but sounds like it was worth it. Thanks
Did you really use 300lbs of oxalic?
Great job! Love the 5 gal pump w/dolly. You should do a video on that build. I would like to make one. "You Da Man" !!
That was Chris's dolly. The pail sprayer is just strapped to it. The pail sprayer is the seal n lock pail sprayer. That's the one he has
Also you dont seem too worried about the grass and all that so its pretty safe at the concentration your laying it out? And thanks for taking the time to post all this vid
I wouldn't do it if it wasn't with caution. I'm not spraying carelessly and dousing the grass
Probably still going to brown an inch in.....let them know their lawn guy can dye it it will recover in a couple of months.

Know it's gonna be a good one will check it out tomorrow ❤busy at the moment
Thanks Dean
Nice videoing also. How long did it take you to learn editing and what do you like for editing,Thank you sir. Love your jobs!
Thanks. It took me a couple years to get Good and creative. I've used many programs over the years but simplicity wise I think Capcut editing has been the easiest to use. And it doesn't take a lot of memory on your computer.
great job cliff
Thanks a lot.
Did you wash with water after? Power wash or garden hose pressure? Great video BTW.
No I didn't
What Kind Of Bucket Setup Is Chris Running? I'd Like To See That Being Put Together
Chris has the seal n lock bucket sprayer. Its made by seal n lock
Nice job you guys killed it!! question does this stuff remove water stains?
What is water stains? The stains I'm cleaning is already from the water. I'm confused 😆
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash like those white mineral stains
Don’t expect to know why you priced but how did you know what ballpark you should’ve been in?
I didn't. I just charged what I felt I wanted to make and was comfortable with. Still ended up making $750 an hour average 🙃
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash keep it up brother 🎯
Sweet vid! Do you pre-treat the sidewalk before the acid solution?
No. Just spray oxalic and walk away
Love it ❤ great job bro 👍
I'm glad you like it
Congratulations, nice job
Many many thanks
Crazy job could you give a rough estimate of how much that ticket paid. I just want to get perspective. Thanks Great videos!!!
I dont put my prices out here cause I get ppl that complain about its too high or too low. So I stay away from that
Water filtration is the problem you going to get better filters for the water to stop it
Yea their filters was broken they have them there.
Smiling on that invoice I bet
still smiling lol ahaha
Can we play high or low guessing game
@@stevewood3170 what's your guess?
I'm going with 8000
$7585.00
Did you really use 300lbs of oxalic?
Yes. 6 bags each is 50lbs.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash Where did you pick that stuff up from, if you don't mind. Thanks
Nice,, Job,, Nuff said!!!!
I appreciate that 🙏🏽
Like Hay man ...

Man your proud of your work.!
AS YOU SHOULD BE!!!!💯💯👍✌️
😎 lol thanks
won't he need to do the full driveway? Otherwise, will one section be brighter?
That will be a discussion to have when someone is hiring you. This was a commercial job so they asked for many different quotes, full driveways, and partial driveways. If it were a residential customer I would just do the whole driveway but that wasnt the case. We were tasked for certain stuff.
Awesome video. Can you list where or how to make those .itt;e pump sprayers!
I dont have a video of making one unfortunately. 😔
Hey Cliff does the oxalic acid remove rust stains from paved driveways ??
Yes it can. I've done it.
Bro do a video on that bucket build with two batteries, also great video very informative
I didn't build that. That is sold from seal n lock unfortunately. That thing is pretty sweet.
Very nice thanks for replying
Gawdamn man. One pipe busted and it got rust to stick to everything hundreds of feet away? How does that happen..its on everything
The system shuts down the filter doesn't work for the entire neighborhood. So iron water is just spraying everywhere from the sprinklers.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash oh OK it went through the pipes.
@@chriss6154 yes it's a sprinkler system
How did you make your estimate for something like this? Did you just eyeball it with your experience or did you have a method?
I actually went out there and measured it.
Where do you buy the acid and pale sprayer Tku
The acid I got from Pressure washer products. The pail sprayer I got from 4k softwash. The link for it is in the description of the video
Hey pink I will like to know the type of product you use for paver clean and seal, I see you do a job in one day and other people telling me it take three days because you have to make sure it's dry
I use what everyone in the industry uses go clean. Chlorine. But I use deco products silicast. You gotta call them to find your nearest distributor
Hey cliff , get your self a dolly and strap the bucket to it and 100ft of 3/8 air hose from harbor freight to make that sealing pail sprayer more efficient. I did the same thing works so good it’ll make your life a lot easier brother 🤙
I said my dolly broke in the video lol hahahah I think you missed it. I didn't have time to get all that stuff, the job got approved and we had to start it right away
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash i must have missed it haha my bad brother. i was like damn carrying around that bucket down the street must be brutal.
@@TheShortsguy1012 yea for that day it was worth it hahahah I wouldn't wanna do that daily for weeks.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash that 100ft of hose and dolly is a life saver for sealing. i just added you on facebook!
@exodusexteriorsolutions yea I could see that but man it would suck in the small areas like pool decks going around pillars and stuff. For a driveway it would be more beneficial that way it doesn't tangle up.
Job well done. 👍
Thank you
what's up Cliff, hey how hot is your downstream mix are you able to adjust it? or is that when you use your soft wash setup for hotter mixes
Mine probably pulls around a 1.5-2% but that's the highest it'll get cause you can only adjust down by adding water to your SH which I never do.
Yes the soft wash system is what I can adjust the mix from .01% to 12.5% full strength
How do you recommend charging for rust removal?
square footage.
That would have been a perfect upsell in the front especially after you did a great job on the interior of the complex, they would have definitely had you come back and do the front, and they would have paid for it.
I've done all of it at this point. I need to go take a ride up there to see if it came back again 😆
Is this water going inside the house too?
no they each home has a water softener that cleans the water for use inside.
Can I ask where did you pick up your bags of Oxcilic from?
Pressure washer products in Clearwater FL
Thank you. That's where I bought my 8gpm machine. Thanks again. 👍
Great job once agin Cliff, where did you get the bigger bag of oxalic acid from? I have only found 5&10 lb bags
Thanks. I buy it from pressure washer products locally
I sure hope they flushed out that pump and all the water lines. Otherwise everything is going to be rust stained again.
Lol they know who to call. I've been out there 3 times. Over 25k made from rust removal
Any leads on where to get a bulk bag on the Oxalic acid powder?
I buy them from pressure washer products
Hey Cliff my brother nice videos! Nice videos, how many square feet does the 5 gallons cover?
It depends on how much rust there is.. We were able to do 2 driveways and a 1 sidewalk with a 5 gallon bucket of mix.
What did you use for the rust removal
For real?
I watched it again my internet cut out thank you
100. I’d throw the cones down near the truck with hoses on the ground. People are blind. 👊👍
Yea we made it out with no problems 😊
What mix ratio do you use for rust removal? Or just straight
Explained in the video
Do you have terms and conditions contracts. And do you have separate t&c for residential and commercial cleaning
Yes I do. No I have just 1
@PinkFlamingoPowerWash ok do you send it through a app (if so which one) or in person signature?
@@mciverbrandon email
Bro what did you use to clean that rust off
Stated all that in the video
why is there so much rust in a new development?
The sprinkler system filtration system was broken!
Where do you get your shirts made and how long do it take ?
I have a friend that makes them for me. I normally get my orders within 2 weeks. @DaJudgeScreening@outlook.com email him. His name is James Judge
What do you charge for that
Sorry I don't advertise my prices on RUclips. In the past it created way too much complaints from people
So what was the mix?
Said it in the intro
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash 16oz per gallon. Got it. I missed that somehow while watching. What kind and where can I buy from?
@dustinjohnson2116 there's only one kind I've seen and that's powder form. I get the 50lb bags from pressure washer products. But Amazon has it in smaller portions like 1, 5, 10 LB bags.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash thx you
@dustinjohnson2116 you're welcome brother. Good luck
How in the world do you bid something like that?
I did it by square footage.
Will muriatic acid have the same results?
Yes but again its gonna be more expensive and also more prone to killing grass than oxalic acid. If we used Muriatic Acid we would definitely have to rinse to avoid cooking the edges of the grass.
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash 🙇♂️🙌 yes Sensei Pink🤩 I appreciate that gem! That knowledge is sooo gold for us newbies in the industry! Thank you!
Sir, can you Oxalic Acid to remove red clay on brick?
Nah it wont
@@PinkFlamingoPowerWash
Thank you, sir!
@rodneybeache425 you're welcome. In a pinch muriatic acid will work though.
So how many oz did you put on that 5 gallon bucket?
In the intro
I heard that but didn’t get it lol
You said 16 oz per gallon so that’s 80 oz on a 5 gallon bucket and then you said two of the cup you used which you said two 32 oz I guess that makes 64 oz on the 5 gallon bucket. So is it 80oz or 64oz?
@neftalibaeza2391 80oz you can use a lighter ratio it you have less rust . We had deep rust so we went very strong 💪🏾
Thank you!
What are you using?
I'm confused. What are you referring to?
1-2gpm 12v pump with 3/8" 100' hose and garden sprayer wand? I put one together with 35 gallon tank NICE ticket 👍
Our original plan of attack was to make a big batch, use a 12v pump, and run a long section of hose. However, once we got rolling, the 5 gallon buckets were just quick and easy. We didn’t have to mess with hoses getting caught up in landscaping, etc
