Sorry for the super long intro I just thought it was necessary to document how much of a battle this video was to make :D Thank you all for 100,000 views on the previous video, absolutely awesome! Stay tuned for some cool stuff coming up ASAP!
You deserve every blessing you get your such a good person
Loving the stone ball, it looks great!
not sure what your wife is going to say about what you've done to the lawn!
Hello Sid from across the pond. Why don't you ask the statue dealers if you can clean the statues for and let you film it for us. And the statue you thought was a dragon is a squirrel 🐿️🐿️. May God continue to bless you and your family double portions of His Hope, Faith, and Love!! Much love from The Alexander's ❤️
Sid as a classic car owner, you could make a fortune on steam cleaning engines and the underside of cars , especially classic cars , definitely worth thinking about
Great Idea!
indeed, ruclips.net/video/Y3qBnzHDMeY/видео.html
I’ve never seen anything so cool as that reclamation place and all the statues in the snow. Enjoyed the cleaning of the pieces you got, good choices !! This was fun !
Thank you very much!
Oh I adore that cat! Such a great job as always mate, I needed that after a long day of uni work
Thank you very much! glad i can help the de-stress!
Enjoy every second of your vids Sid, job well done as always.
thank you buddy!
They came up great, would be good to speak to the local churches and see about steam cleaning some of the old gravestones and monuments in the church yard as one of your freebies for charity.
Yeah i've been trying for a while but they never seem to respond!
@@PartridgeExteriorCleaning Try your Returned services places? They might know of some veterans' graves etc that might do well with a clean...
There are some RUclips channels about cleaning graves. It’s fascinating.
Gravestones have to be cleaned very carefully using appropriate cleaners. It's very easy to damage them and speed up their aging process by using pressure washers or inappropriate cleaning methods. Please be careful doing this, especially if you do not have the family's permission.
It´s somehow a different kind of satisfying to watch you clean some statues and I´m all here for it 😊❤
Feel the same day, it's really unique content.
Glad you enjoy it!
That machine is epic, Sid!
I was rooting for the statue, but ultimately the cat took 1st prize. Good to see you again 😊
Thank you Meagan😀
This was very fun! Thanks Sid. I liked seeing the steam cleaner in action. I know it's something you've wanted for awhile. Glad you got a replacement for the first one.
Yeah worth the wait for sure!
I like the stone ball, certainly kicks out some heat.
Thanks again for yesterday Sid a real pleasure in working with u, it was a shame it wasn’t the weather to hang around gathering video footage. 👍
Old Neil 🤨 Lol
haha good old neil :D should of said good young neil :D looking forward to next time mate!
@@PartridgeExteriorCleaning
Yes, hope that quote comes through for you in Shrewsbury with many more in the future.
Thanks for reminding me I’ll send that off inabit!
@@PartridgeExteriorCleaning
I could always be your PA lol 😂
Maybe you can find an affordable solar light to go on the post of the tall statue. Or a gazing globe would also look cool on it.
Have a great week!
I think the sphere will come up amazingly, it’s certainly my favourite! Now let’s watch and find out 👍
Loved it, need to buy a giant one :D
when i was a kid i've always been curious as to how statues are deep cleaned so this video was very cool :>
Hey I'd like a uhh, burger, and a large fry, and.. uhhhh.... burger.
Thanks rose!
They make a cleaner specifically for concrete... specialty items. I've watched video's of where people go in and clean tomb stones. You can't power wash them or you might lose some of the etchings or names and dates. People go in and spray that stuff on and give it a light scrub with a brush and then rinse. Sometimes two applications are needed and the stone comes out like new. Usually a person has the cleaner in a spray bottle, a scrub brush and two, 1gallon bottles of water to get one done and restore it. Nice video to see how much that washer can get off concrete.
Wrap them in Bubble wrap make it easier for yourself,top vid as always
haha yeah, heavy and fragile isn't a good mix :D
What a fun video Sid! I think it was a brilliant way to test your new steam cleaner while making a unique, entertaining video! Really enjoyed it! Would love to see a gargoyle or two !
Paint removal on the statue u want 150deg mate, and u aint using steam if ure under 100, once u go above 110 ul notice the jet gets a lot less liquidy and a lot more gassey but b carefull in the frozen weather cz can crack
Yeah a friend told me halfway through ramp it up but like you just said was a bit worried about the cold so will tackle it on the next episode if it’s milder :D
Hi mate enjoyed the video have a great day love from TEXAS
Thanks! You too!
Always love your videos.
thanks jane!
Interesting variety of results.
Maybe an idea for easier transportation of long pieces: lay them down on a piece of wood, slightly larger, and strap them.
Cheers
My guess is squirrel. Loving this cleanu!!😊
Squirrel became the enemy in this video! xD
Gosh Sid, what can I say other than that was different! I love the puss cat and the statue should have a bird bath/table or sundial attached.
good idea! probably was a bird bath at one point in time!
@@PartridgeExteriorCleaning I would guess that it was a planter or urn, judging by the height of the iron rebar. Probably one like the 3rd from the right on the upper shelf @3:18. I would actually use this video to pitch to the owner of that statue yard that they could pay you to show up on a mild winter day and clean up some of the grimiest that aren't garnering interest.
Great little video mate
Thanks buddy👍
Hi sid. Another fantastic video well done and keep up the great work and u did well there 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
What a cool idea for a video! Would love to see more of this :)
More to come!
That squirrel was a tough nut to crack.
Still a great video, and a good project to learn a bit about your new machine.
Love your steamer! Can't wait to see more vids! Merry Christmas🎄
Great job in the cold! I noticed that some of those pieces are heavy. Do you have a back brace for work so you don't hurt yourself lifting? Your older self will thank you.
I think the statue came up good and the black spot is fine as it adds to its patina of age imo That suggestion on steam cleaning engines is a good one too I think
Love the little boy, think he has some sort of dish missing, looks like he was a fountain
Loved it all thank you so much for sharing. Love Roos 🙋🏻♀️🤗👊🏻😁👍🏻🤩💥🥳
Glad you enjoyed it! take care
Yes! Yes! Yes! Lions and horses please!!
I'll try my best :D they look expensive but i'll figure it out!
@@PartridgeExteriorCleaning Ask the owner if he wants anything cleaned and if u brake it u buy it ;)
Hi Sid!
herres an ide
don't bother by statues
make a deal with the seller to clean them for there costumers
for a fee or for free and get a short out of it or clip them together in to a compilation.
I like it!
Yes, please! More of these videos!
I’m rooting for the squirrel 🐿 cause I ,Ike an underdog!
That was a great advert for your skill. Have you considered approaching Edinburgh City about cleaning the Scott Monument? Apparently they had a team in there for a year and it's still absolutely filthy.
gosh, would love to give that a go, i need some connections :D
My first thing by this video have been,his own wife must be "happy", when he is doing this things on them own garden. 😃 But nice idea to do this, because this old staff looks really well! Good job!
Thank you! She's actually sick of me cluttering the garden i think xd
@@PartridgeExteriorCleaning Typical English Lawn 😄😄😄
Greetings from the States. Thanks for your video's. Not sure why, but i find them very relaxing.
Great job on the statues, would love to see more like this.
thanks frank!
Finally! haha gonna enjoy it while eating my dinner
nice one!! sorrry for the long wait!
@@PartridgeExteriorCleaning I watched it and enjoyed it thoroughly haha not usually what you clean with pressure washing but it was still a chill video
Love to see more like this Sid 😊👍👍 Thank you for your satisfying videos ❣️
Can’t wait to see what you pull out of that reclamation place next. I think that ball will look good on top of that statue, great idea Sid! Great video as always! 👏🏻 We missed you while you were “away” lol. 🥰❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I love seeing the statues getting clean...well, the ones that did! Poor cat. lol
Pre rinse with vinegar and dish soap in solution of water at a 10 to 1 mix. Let sit 15 to 20 minutes. It's as good as bleach but less toxic to plant life. The steam cleaning car engines sounds like a good use of the machine and could pay for itself. Use the same solution. Dawn dish soap is one of the best de oilers, better then some commercial degreasers on the market and again better for the environment!
Love your videos, think the dragon/squirrel will come up lovely. Next would be the boy statue.
5:49 into the video and my guess is the dragon/squirrel lol. Very excited to see the results! The squirrel came out pretty nicely and I loved seeing the steamer in action. Wonderful video!
The poor old broken kitty cat was the winner in the most transformation category 😉!!
I'd love to get the cat statue from you but I live in Colorado, US and can't pay for shipping! I'm an artist and would love to fix it up and transform it.
A few have asked so ill do a random pick in a few days!
I love watching you do the statues. ❤
Sid, there are videos on you tube of people dry ice cleaning stuff - particularly car engines. Maybe that's another line of work for you. 😄 There's no end to your talent.
I will check it out sounsd interesting!
Dont be worry about the people that they say Hate something you did. Yes people like things a certain way. Its their own views how something should look.
That cat reminds of Mr. Bigglesworth from Austin Powers. LMFAO!!!!
You could put a plant pot on the angel statue. The rod would go up through the drain hole. As long as it doesn’t block it completely. Trailing ivy!
The Ball was really satisfying and the big one of course.
That was a fun and different video. ❤️ Just like anything else you work on, I’m all about trying to return things to their original glory when possible. 😉👍🏼
Great way to test your new machine! The Buddha was a big disappointment but the cat and the sphere were very satisfying to watch. Fun video :)
Love the video, super machine! Personally I love the cherub, think putting the ball on top is a great idea!! Now if you can get that to Texas....LOL!! Nasty weather, but you still cranked out a great video! All the best to you and yours Sid!!
Thank you sandi!
Very cool video mate 🙂👍
Very interesting video. I, too, thought the steam would do a better job on the older statues. Lastly, watch your swearing. There's probably some old little lady out there who spit out her tea when she heard it. Good video!
Quality mate opens up so many options for you
This was awesome !! Something different, very cool.
So fun to watch!
All of them will look so much better
I love the statues!!
You should offer to clean that sellers statues. He’ll never sell them all grimy like that!
Then we can see them cleaned and you might make a few bucks.💕
Nice, so you can power wash now, as well as pressure wash? Fantastic! Nice demonstration there too, sid. Keep up the fantastic work mate.
Great job on the testing,thing the cat came up so well as it's a lot newer and it's made of different materials than the lady statue...
I love my garden ornaments to have the aged look,but at some point when they start to loose their details they need a sprouse up...they look lovely when the deep detailing his left dark...
In the spring have this owner hire you to clean his statues instead of buying them. The statues don’t need to be perfectly clean, some of the staining helps bring out the features. Plus you want them clean not new. Poor kitty. Good thing none of them cracked from the temperature change. Test between different materials, stones, cement ect… you may need to handle different materials differently.
I was also rooting for the squirrel. Gosh darn it
I enjoyed watching the reveal.
Squirrel Dragon needs the finished cleaning/paint removal to see his true self
There’s a young boy I saw on the news that charges just over £8 to clean headstones with a bucket of water
and a brush…a young entrepreneur
Looking forward to the next video..stay dry and warm 🇨🇦 ❤️
If you do this again with more statues Sid, maybe get your Mrs to choose them :)
I, too, am disappointed in that dinosaur turtle monster.
Do more! :) Nice to work with the statue seller down the road? Win-win, nice video to watch.
Loved this video. Can't wait to see what you buy next! P. S Mother dearest would love a statue for the garden please 😁❤️ xx
Get round there quick 😀👍
Nice video sid, enjoyed seeing how the statues turned out 👍
Wow that thumbnail! Made me click the video. Well anyways i would have watched it!! 😁😁😁 So cool that you guys have snow already; it is weird cuz here it should be snowing but it is warm enough and it is just raining!
haha thank you! Yeah looks like it may be a rare rough winter here this year
Just a suggestion for content during the winter season. Try detailing cars. Pressure washing dirty exteriors of vehicles is always a good one for content.
the hot water machine is also very good for the greasy oily spots in driveways.
The guy you got them from, near your house, he should offer clients to have them cleaned & pay you to come clean the statues!
The cat is still supper cute. I had two cats that were born with stubby tails just like that.
You should go to different crematorys you can do the old headstones and different kinds of statues alot of times Noone keeps up on that kind of stuff
Gravestones have to be cleaned very carefully using appropriate cleaners. It's very easy to damage them and speed up their aging process by using pressure washers or inappropriate cleaning methods. Please be careful doing this, especially if you do not have the family's permission.
Excellent!
Weirdly enough, some ornaments look better with a bit of dirt on them. The last ornament looks like some sort of bird bath or water feature. Would be worth a few quid if you had the top bit. Very nice piece for the garden.
He could make a bird feeding plate, just use concrete in a basin lined with cellophane and a pole in it lined with cellophane to make the hole
Yay!! I guessed the cat. It came out great but the big sphere came up pretty clean too.
The tall statue will come out the best!! That's my guess, now back to the video!
Nice one sid👍.
Living in the southern US I never consider snow in the UK. I really need to get about more often 🤔
It's just hitting the season now really ,we never usually get too much though
Nice video
That was a fun video!
Would the seller be open to you stopping by to pressure washing items for the views?
I was thinking that im gonna head back in a few days and ask, could clean the mall up for pre-sale
The big statue!
Little tip watch you hoses on grass will burn it and leave lines .
Wow Sid that machine is epic , love the Pokemon looking squirrel 🤣 , Need to see a Lion next maybe a giraffe? maybe you could just ask the statue owner if you could clean them therefore no costs in buying ?
cheers for the vid Sid👌
Worth a try isn't it! If not i'll have to fork out and try to resell :D
I love watching these video and that poor cat lost a paw he looks amazing and keep up the good work 👍
Is the Vtuf steam cleaner going to be your “everyday” cleaner going forward or will you still opt to use regular cold water?
I think the boy statue is suppose to be the base of a fountain or a bird bath. You might be able to restore it and sell it
Yes sid with another amazing video!!!! , quick question bud, do you think pressure washing using cold water on low pressure on a brick wall would have the same benefits as a steam cleaner.
Did you scald the lawn? I know it's cold but I'm just curious.
haha nah it's just where the statues have been sat for a week xD
@@PartridgeExteriorCleaning Don't let those HT pipes sit on lawns when on a job Sid, kills grass effectively instantly. I use the Doff Integra regularly, and it's one of the main things I'm vigilant about.
Just a question. I want to do mine driveway in about two, three weeks. Is it wise to do that now in this season?
Also love the channel and your content. Greetings from Belgium.
It's a trricky one as it will always get dirty again but in this type of weather it'll get dirty marginally quicker, to keep a driveway clean all year round it should really be done twice a year but most people opt for once a year, march -may time, tends to keep nice till december ish.
@@PartridgeExteriorCleaning thx for the answer :)
That was fun!
I guessed that the stone sphere would be the best claen up but that cat totally stole the show.
Those little thieves
