Hello guys Don’t laugh at me but I have a smaller PW at 2.5 GPM I want to wash my house by down-streaming out of a 5Gallon bucket I have 50 ft of PW Hose my question is.is how do I get to the Mix Ratio that I need for vinyl siding out how many gallons of 12.5 Sh and how much water should I add
Sell or return your pressure washer, use the money to hire a pro, it will be cheaper and save you time. My clients usually get at least 2 years out of a house wash, and it gets done while they are at work.
Not the answer to your question, but I think it’s still the right answer.
It could be done just fine, but rinsing will take you a while. You need to know the rate your injector pulls from your bucket, then it’s just math.
You’ll just have to experiment. Start off at about 1/2 SH and rest water. Try it on your worse spot. Right mix should start to clean it within about 5 min. If real bad may need to hit twice. Adjust mix from there. If vinyl can’t really hurt much being a little strong.
Probably the easier layman’s answer than what I said…to add:
If it cleans faster then 5 minutes then add more water to your mix, if slower add more SH.
