I love tools that speed jobs by quantum leaps. A customer introduced me to his new aquisition and I knew immediately it was a must have.

For years I've had a monster pressure washer that I would hardly use. It just took to long to pressurewash my concrete, a two inch swath at a time, and when you were done you had a drive full of the dreaded zebra stripes.

With this thing, you walk at a modest pace and it cleans evenly, quickly and thoroughly. It is wonderful, I will be able to use it several times a year and just fly thru it 'cause I won't have the years of buildup.

Below is a picture of one pass on my side drive.

Here is a link to a vendor. They have several sizes. I got the one pictured with the three jets. The plastic housing with two jets works great as well. You just have to move a little slower.

WOW that's quite a wash head.

It would probably destroy my dirt/gravel/grass driveway and walk ;) Even my basement is dirt!

I wonder if that contraption would work on a deck. Looks mighty useful.

Yep, check the link. If I posted the right one they have a video. A good thing about these units is that they come in different sizes and you can raise and lower the spray jets.

I have a friend of a friend who I supplied the link to that just purchased one to do his deck with.

Those are nice. Have you seen the upside down version of those for cleaning under your truck?

Just saw one of those at Home Depot the other day. It was in combination with a regular power waher unit. Looks interesting, but I probably wouldn't use it too much..
