Equipment for cleaning

[scharlton]

Hi, my Karcher pressure washer just started emitting high pressure water out of it's base instead of the hose. Cleaned the drive but not much use on the car. Dis-assembly revealed a lot of wear, not just a simple "O" ring change so it's been recycled.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a replacement, would be interested to wash the car using snow foam etc so I'm hoping a detailer on this forum could offer some advice on the best machine.

Apparently the Kranzle pressure washer are very good, the mobile car washers use them.

I just use a standard hose (with Hozelock multi spray gun) + 2 buckets and a mitt.
But I've got a ceramic coat, so that's all you need.

Btw, Alasdair... please put some pics up of your SVR.

Some friends of mine. Motorcyclists usually go to car wash DIY at Garforth where they have high pressure washers, which they use. They have had various MOT failures do to with bearing failures blamed on using high pressure on automotive's. The high pressure gets everywhere it shouldn't. Just saying.
