Just finished my first wash ever

I have 200’ on mine. Still pulls soap just fine. Add a plastic 1/4 turn valve on your soap suction line and shut it off that way. Then you dont pull air. That crap would have come off the dormers with more SH in the mix. I think it was innocent that posted the plastic valves a while back. I bought 3 and Im glad I did.

Good to go…thanks!

Is it’s necessary to pull all 200ft off of the reel or just what I’m going to use?

Cheap reel, pull it all off. Good reel, just what you need.

What brand is considered good?

I have a Titan…
