Wow thats very interesting, i wish i could found those suppliers here in Mexico, who teaches on how to mix those different products?, experience?, i wish someone could train me in san antonio texas
I don’t know if PressureTek ships out of the country. @Innocentbystander, do you know if he does or not?
As far as mixing them, they all come with basic recommendations and you go from there.

I’m pretty sure not out of country.
@KNBExteriors nailed it. The only thing I’ve found at Home Depot or Menards that is worth a damn is Zep Heavy Duty Citrus Degreaser and the Zep Purple Degreaser thanks to @Jordie. I wouldn’t have tried it if he didn’t recommend it.
That stuff won’t help you much on house washes. I don’t use degreasers on anything residential. Just restaurants really.
Aside from that, Pressuretek is my favorite. If he doesn’t ship outside of the US, try powerwash.com. They have similar chemicals apparently. They may ship OCONUS.
I’m glad BJ answered since I missed this. Sorry, been a wild week.
I’d be willing to bet there’s a pressure washing contractor in San Antonio who’d let you do an unpaid internship. If it’s important to you that’d be the way to go.
@OvermanPowerClean is near San Antonio

Btw, i looked it up. Purple active ingredient is Sodium Hydroxide.
Zep Citrus looks like active is d-Limonene (Citrus Terpene):
Tried the Citrus this week on Wendys back alley with heavy black traffic patterns. Worked well and smelled good. Citrus seems better environmentally and Purple is the strongest degreaser Zep makes, by their own admission.

@squidskc hey Sir, thanks for letting me know about @OvermanPowerClean, i just sent him a message, i will be traveling to san antonio this week for a few days to pick up the pressure washer i bought, hope to make contact, gracias!
Hey @squidskc do you think zeps purple or citrus degreaser is better for oils stains on concrete? also does pressure tech have a chemical for oil stains that you know of?
I don’t think they do. I don’t rreally think one is better than the other. All degreasers work marginally well. Hot water is the key.
