Powerwashering Technique

bgpainter

I am sure most of you guys have extensive experience in powerwashing. I've never done it. I got a brand new MiTM machine I was gonna test on my house. It's white cedar shingles. Can anyone help me with the rules of thumb in powerwashing? Where do you start and finish (up--down; left--right).
I intend to use bleach and Jomax. Can I pump it directly through the machine? Will the bleach affect the hose or the pump? Can I just pump straight bleach? Do I need to wash down afterwards?

BG, there IS a rule of thumb !

Don't use a lot of pressure !

thegrimescene.com will have most the answers you need.

I would advise you read thru their threads... run a search...

I recommend doing a google search or something. Power washing takes some getting used to, but you'll pick up things fast. It's really important to see some illustrations and explanations on the methods and techniques. But more importantly, getting out there and doing it will teach you just as much.

So yeah, start with a search and illustrations.
