re: Pressure Wash for Concrete - Pretreatment?
Posted by Clames on 5/4/24 at 3:39 pm
I think that depends on the pressure washer. If you have something with 3,000psi/3gpm or more then I don't think a pretreatment is going to help. If you are using something electric you're probably going to need the extra help to loosen the grime. ...

re: Question about home HVAC System

It's probably go...

Had an old heavy-duty DR field and brush mower with a Kawasaki engine, it was rough but it never quit even in thick brush and pine saplings. If you can handle the smaller trees with a chainsaw then a 26" to 30" DR would be fine if you want to buy something new for yourself. I wouldn't get a used one...
