Little Known Pressure Washing Secrets. How to Powerwash Anything!

What happens here

The presenter concludes with a recap of the benefits of the tools and a final tip. He emphasizes the effectiveness of the MI-T-M rotating nozzle (5000 PSI) for general cleaning, noting its ceramic ball mechanism. He also highlights the built-in filter in these nozzles, which is crucial for preventing clogging, especially when using irrigation water which can be dirty. Finally, he advises against using flat-tip nozzles for most pressure washing tasks as they are slow and prone to leaving stripes on surfaces like fences. He recommends sticking to rotating nozzles and a straight nozzle for specific high-impact cleaning needs.

Goal: Summarize key takeaways and provide advanced tips on nozzle selection and maintenance.

Tools and materials

  • All Surface Cleaner — Efficient, streak-free cleaning of flat surfaces
  • Rotating Nozzle MI-T-M — Powerful, agitating cleaning; main nozzle for most tasks
  • Straight Nozzle — Specific high-impact cleaning (e.g., hornet nests)

all right so we're cruising right along pressure washing getting this thing done i'm about uh three quarters of the way done just gonna give you some more tips and tricks and when it comes to pressure washing around the screen so i'm using my rotating nozzle almost 90 percent of the time i do like to clean the screens as part of my pressure washing now a lot of the screens are going to be oxidized pretty old so really stay you know pretty far back from the screen until you're comfortable you're cleaning it but not actually leaving stripes on it or marks on it because they can be very fragile when oxidized and i actually striped one of the screens on purpose so you can see what happens if you get too close because i'm going to re-screen it so i just wanted to give you a look at what it looks like also on the concrete when you're doing the concrete make sure you're not striping the concrete if you do get stripes on the concrete i did stripe it out front so you can see what it looks like you'll have to go back and really clean it a hundred percent to get those stripes out and really work those things out but the the mi-t-m um all-service cleaner is an absolute amazing tool along with the shut off valve right here the the shut off valve so you can switch between your all surface cleaner and your uh wand because you need to do corners and edges and stuff like that and you saw me switch out there is an all surface cleaner with wheels on it the thing has without wheels it floats pretty well but if you want it to be a lot easier to manipulate and move it around you can get it with four wheels on it that makes it a lot easier to do if you're doing a lot of concrete the ones with wheels do make a difference once again i do like wearing gloves and i do like wearing eye protection also when it does when it comes to pressure washing the house you'll stay far enough back until you get close enough that you're actually cleaning the surface you can see this side right here it was extremely dirty the rotation and agitation of the nozzle cleans it extremely well without chemicals but you got to get close enough to actually get that agitation to work but not so close to damaging the surface once again i've been using these rotating nozzles for about 20 years this is a 5 000 psi rotating nozzle from mi-t-m and these are the best i've ever used they don't last forever they do have a rotating ceramic ball so they i go through probably three of them you know every year and…
