Alternative Surfactant for House Washing

What you have to understand is that there are many many many novice pressure washers that come on this site to get free industry information. They don’t know anything about chemicals. So they see a post about adding toilet bowl cleaner to their mix and they WILL go try it. This could literally result in someone’s death. The toilet bowl cleaner statement had to be qualified.

I totally appreciate the clarification and should have been more diligent in my original response to this post. I should have been much more specific…

Not sure your location but I can order Elemonator at noon one day and its on my door step the next day!
I swear Bob must run it straight to the post office!
He’s the fastest shipper I’ve ever seen!

And instead of an OZ per Gallon I use an OZ per 5 gallon mix and it works great. Wouldn’t surprise me if its not needed at all but…
It works so I use it!

Even I don’t know what to say after reading this. IBS I truly understand your frustration now. I apologize for any stupid post I made before. I follow a couple of FB pages and just shake my head.

hey, I am brand new and still learning. But quick question, I am up in Canada so surfactants are already a major hurdle. Would regular Arm & Hammer laundry detergent work? I cant even find the one with Oxi Clean up here in :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

What part of Canada are you in?

On Vancouver Island in BC

Hi Aussie, I’m in Brisbane Queensland. Any luck with finding a surfactant distributor. I would appreciate a contact if you would be so kind.

G’day Jezza, Softwash Australia is located near you,
Nick stocks a range of products and is a good bloke to deal with.
