Truck washing (Soaps, Tips and Tricks)

I knew I heard it @dperez . At first I thought it was a remote button you had on your gun, then I thought, Hell, He’s got the help Turing valves,Its neither is it ? Its flow activated ain’t it ? Watched the video like 20 times lol. your more secretive than the elusive 2 step gun. Find it interesting that no one will follow the lines back to the machine and film that. :shushing_face::shushing_face:

That was probably just the clicking of the touchscreen on his phone while he was scrolling through eBay listings and washing trucks at the same time. I think you can turn the keypad clicking noise off in system settings.

You’ll have the 1/4" line from your DS injector and that should go to a 3 way ball valve.

From that valve it’ll go to your acid/soap.

I use this to shut off my injector from pulling soaps:

I don’t trust that clear vinyl to not collapse under the smallest vacuum

Or the summer heat, ask me why I know this…

It was all they had at Tractor Supply as a last minute pickup. Said it was good for acids and up to 70psi if I remember correctly. I still have about 10 more feet left if I need to use it.

I got it so I can have a shutoff valve for my DS Injector.

You should be alright in the colder months, I had it collapse and kink on me on 100 degree days.
I did the same exact thing 2 years ago, ran out of the braided and went to local TSC.

And I have to say, cold weather cleaning sucks! Especially when your gun is leaking like a mofo and I didn’t have what I needed to swap my lance over to my other gun (only had 1 wrench like a dumbass)

Gotta fix my other gun, but I can’t find a part number or even a brand on it (got it when I bought the whole setup). May just buy another Suttner 2605 and a repair kit to have on hand

Cold weather is a mother. more soap,diesel, gasoline,time,antifreeze, 3 layers of clothing etc,etc, bla,bla,
I HATE winter brother.

Have you tried this yet. Holds up way longer. built for acid and high PH caustic soaps, little different to hold though

I have some great snivel gear from the Army, couple that with my wet weather gear as well and I stay warm (for the most part). But the wind just sucks major ■■■ this time of year.

So now I am going to carry salt and wd-40 (for the locks) on my trailer now. Throw some salt down when I know I’m gonna create ice

Now spraying in the wind with your spray taking a sharp right hand turn just after leaving your nozzle now that sucks

Don’t freeze their trucks and shut their entire operation down for the day we allow 4 hours for the water to drain out of the tumblers and evaporate off the door seals

What guns do you like @dperez ? You’ve been doing this longer than both of us put together.

What do you use? Just WD-40?

ST-1500’s but the ST-2315’s are great for your acid

I bought the 2605 because it was supposed to be for acids and it was an easy pull. Now I cannot find where I saw that so I can’t back it up
