What happens here

The presenter begins by introducing the project: pressure washing a fence. He highlights the use of a rotating nozzle, which he explains is highly effective for stripping old coatings and rejuvenating the fence's appearance. He addresses common concerns about potential wood damage from such nozzles, asserting that with proper technique and maintaining a suitable distance from the surface, the method is safe and efficient for removing aged wood fibers. He notes that this method is similar to power washing houses, where distance and technique are also crucial to prevent damage.

Goal: Understand the purpose and primary tool for fence pressure washing

Tools and materials

  • Pressure Washer — Supplying high-pressure water for cleaning
  • Rotating Nozzle — Stripping old coatings and agitating wood fibers

All right, here we go. We're going to get ready to do this fence. I'm going to be pressure washing this fence. I'm going to be using a rotating nozzle. Now, I get a lot of questions and comments when I use this nozzle. People saying, "You're just tearing up and damaging the fence." Now, I've been doing fences, uh, the method that I've been using for over 20 years now here in Idaho. The fences that we see, they're rough on cedar.

Yeah, you can do damage with this nozzle if you don't know what you're doing if you get too close to the surface. We use this for uh pressure washing and power washing houses. Now, if you get too close, you could damage a house. But used properly, the circular motion, it actually agitates. It cleans a lot faster and it strips a lot better. Now, you could actually do damage with a flat nozzle or a straight nozzle if you get too close to the surface, too. So, it's just a matter of using your tools properly. So, I'm going to get get going on this fence. I got this side of it is
