@Firefighter4hire doesn’t even use a surface cleaner when cleaning concrete. He just uses SH and that brown stuff he talks about. You could probably get by with just SH though. I don’t know if it would be dost efficient at .10 sq/ft.
How are you post treating? I bet if you got a 12v and, post treated with a 2%-3% mix, that would take care of your striping issue. You can use a pump up but it can sometimes be tough to put enough down.
I have no idea what you are trying to ask. Typical driveway cost about 75 cents in SH. I guess some might think that expensive.
I usually ust stand in 1 spot, shoot the pre or post treat from there with a stream, then go around with hotter pump up mix and spray the dirtier areas and nooks by the door. So far so good.
This is true, I don’t even use water anymore 
@dcbrock where are you from? I didnt find a location on your profile. The driveways in katy (west of Houston, Tx) all look black like my photo earlier.
I downstream straight 12.5 + soap down here in Houston as my post treatment and it cleans any lines up quickly
With what size machine and injector
Louisville.
I’ll try the push/pull method next time.
You ever make it down to elizabethtown give me a buzz, I’ll feed ya and pick your brain while were at it.
Sounds like Hannibal Lecter.
For some reason I thought you were in Lexington?
Nope, from Taylor county originally, been in etown since 06.
Also your safe, I do my best to stay away from cooked people these days.
I’m in Lexington!
Well aren’t we a motley little crew!
Everything been submitted, we are just waiting on the judge, supposedly shes 1-2 months backlogged…
Good times!
Funny story, my whole life my little brother has dated but never taken a relationship seriously, my father, me, my mom all felt bad for him for well over a decade… now everyone’s divorced and hes been the one who had it figured out the whole time… little dude took flying lessons, parachutes, snowboards, does whatever he wants… turd heads my new hero!
Yeah relationships aren’t for everyone, there’s nothing wrong with not needing a partner. I’ve seen some good looking single ladies out there who stay single by choice, not because they haven’t found the right one 
.
Yeah, I set myself up for failure. I’m not exactly a font of emotion at the best of times and prefer my own company. I’ll probably date again off and on but that’s as far as it will go for me.
Hi APW1, I have a 4gpm machine and need a surface cleaner but am worried about which one to buy after reading these posts. Sounds like you have it dialed in. Which surface cleaner do you use? I appreciate it.
I have a Whisper Wash Ground Force. It is set up for a 5.5gpm machine; however, I’ve had to use it with my 4gpm (with the same nozzles) and does the work, just slower. You could put nozzles for a 4gpm machine but you’d be chocking it; only benefit would be the area coverage. The best thing for you is to get a Whisper Wash Classic, which is smaller, and get 4gpm nozzles. Less coverage but faster. Rule of thumb, according to most, is 4” of surface cleaner per 1gpm. So 4gpm=16” surface cleaner. Take that last statement with a grain of salt…I’ve proved that to not be 100% true. Hope this helps and good luck! Feel free to DM me if more information needed.
