Recommendations for tip-top quality car pressure washer

[Bee]

See my previous post - properly washing a car can be very technical.

Or is the technical section just for specific technical questions? where is the line?

Nice try.

[woohoo]

Why this thead is in technical section instead of general.
The guy that's living here and the mods must be sleeping.

I find it interesting and if it was in general I wouldn't have got some useful information.

I wouldn't bother with my daily runabout (35 for full ext/int clean + wax from H2O in bullring car park) however if I bought a second classic car or something a bit more expensive I'd certainly look after it more.

Sorry I'm late to the party on this one.

(If you've not got one yet, get a Stihl; Smiths hire shops sell them and hire them out, which gives you an idea of quality. I got the RE-118 a couple of years ago and it's brilliant. The pump is very quiet, like a small generator, brass water cooled. The hose is reinforced like those air hoses you see on garage forecourts.

I bought one of those swirly nozzle things for doing the patio, expecting it to be about £70, it was only about £32, unbelievable how fast it gets the patio done compared to those flat ones.

Just purchased a K4 Ecologic Home Ed (older model) with all the cleaning stuff for patio etc for £132 (inc 12m warr'ty), it is refurbed but looks good to me. B&Q were selling the same thing (without cleaning tools) for 200 notes last week.

I bought a Karcher Xpert-HD 7125 Deluxe - mainly for the drum cable handling -I was sick of trailing hose

It does the trick and if coupled with the FR hard surface & patio cleaner thingy makes light work of clearing the crud from the patio each year
