Well you could spend like 80 bucks and buy a used one of those pressure things. They are crazy strong and get whatever the heck they hit clean. Here is a sight with a picture of one (it is like really expensive): http://www.pressurewashersdirect.com/
Measure the inside and outside diameters. You can also write down the make and model of the pressure washer and take it in to a hardware store or go on-line.
Another way is to take the pressure washer to a small engines repair shop.
The use of car wash soap in your pressure washer certainly shouldn’t cause any problem, just be sure to completely rinse the soap tank when you finish. Don’t allow the soap, even diluted, to set in the tank when it’s not in use.
Can I use regular car wash soap in the soap tank on a pressure washer safely?
To wash my car, I use the low pressure nozzle on my pressure washer. Can I add regular car wash soap to my 1 gallon soap tank on the pressure washer? I don’t want the soap to gum up or cause any kinds of problems with the pressure washer. If this isn’t a good idea, could you give me some other ideas?
Lost Black Soap Dispensing Nozzle for Pressure Washer?
I have a project coming up tomorrow to pressure wash a very large fence and lost the black chemical nozzle. I have been to 5 different stores with no luck. Is there anyway around this? Can I attach a slip lock fitting and plug it into the end of the wand and then screw in an adjustable nozzle to create more back pressure to dispense the soap? Where the tube fits into the pump it looks like a pressure ball fitting that would need pressure to open the flow. If this were to work I could only find a plastic slip lock fitting. Would this hold up to the pressure or do you think it would break sending my helper to his knees? I put this in automotive because I thought it was more of a mechanical question. Any jimmy rig ideas that would last a couple days of spraying?
It is a ExCell ZR2800. Here is a link to it. http://www.ppe-pressure-washer-parts.com...

Is it better to use a hose and nozzle or pressure washer to clean a car?
Please explain which one you think is better for cleaning off a car and why.
The pressure washer I plan on buying is about 1300 PSI.
Is there a tool I can attach to my pressure washer nozzle that will maintain a consistant distance?
Something that would roll on two wheels maybe. I’ve seen the type called water brooms, not really what I’m looking for. I’m looking for an attachment for my existing gun nozzle. Something that would make cleaning my deck more efficient.
I found an item similar to what I mean here : http://deckaidmadesimple.com/products.htm

Always use a hose. The pressure washer has to much power and can damage the paint.

The best thing you can do is try, my friend.If not, try to rent one and hope you make more than the cost of rental.
How do you choose between orifice sizes for a pressure washer turbo nozzle?
