This forum is not to spoon feed the most basic information on the easiest thing there is to clean. Do some reading on here first, then ask questions. No one will answer you on this, sorry

Your concern about pressure blowing the vinyl off shows you have done no research what so ever on here about house washing.

Don’t let these guys get to you. For vinyl siding mix jomax and simple green 50/50 and apply with pump sprayer or the injector on your machine. You can be aggressive with rinsing as long as you spray against the over lapping siding. Red tip is usually the preferred tip for rinsing. Good luck and welcome aboard.

You’ll need scaffolding to get the proper angle. Even one storey. Spray downwards with the red tip like rain. Make sure scaffolding is secure.

Don’t give him bad advice, he’s trying to do the right thing and researching is time consuming when we can just give him correct answers of the bat.

If no one tells him he needs scaffolding he may get hurt falling off the ladder. Safety first.

Lol nope. My alt account is way more creative than this.

IBS don’t forget to explain the vaseline treatment on the soffit to avoid corrosion.
