Advice on this.
I’m thinking about adding this to my setup. I am currently running - Kohler 20 HP belt-drive pressure washer - Pump rated around 6 GPM, but your bucket test was about 5 GPM - Typical working pressure around 3,000–3,500 PSI - Diesel burner/hot-water system, rated around 4 GPM - 100-gallon buffer tank with a Hudson valve - 38-gallon chemical tank - Downstream injector located after the heating coil - 20” surface cleaner - Electric high-pressure hose reel - Spare reel - Hand-crank water-supply reel - Sludge sucker - 750W inverter - AGM battery I want to know if this would be a meaningful upgrade or if I should wait and find something different. https://pittsburghsprayequip.com/products/pittspray-softwash-setup-10-0-gpm-bleach-pump-hose-gun-and-nozzles?variant=42119681179839&_gsid=VsqP8XK4SS5s&utm_source=chatgpt.com&utm_medium=feed

@Chris McGee I ended up trying some North Star Industrial Degreaser from Northern Tool (their brand). It was on clearance so I thought I would give it a try. I put it on undiluted, agitated with a medium stiffness brush, let it sit for about 5 minutes then rinsed. I did this 2 more times at a 1:1 ratio then hit it with a surface cleaner and hot water (about a 200 degrees). It’s 90% gone and it had been there more than a year so I call that a win. Thanks for the response. I already started the job before I saw it. I might try that method next time I run into this issue.

Chems?
What chems are you using and where are you getting them? I’m having trouble finding quality stuff locally. I’ve been using f9 products but it’s like a 40 minute drive (each way) out of my way to get them.

Good info to have. I was thinking I needed a little of everything just in case something came up. I’m in Fayetteville, NC
