Man what a find! Also picked up a little absorber for $2 and some lawn care crap



Each line is the same product that is in front
 
Cool now you have to do some objective reporting on them. The only one of those that I have tried is the carpet cleaner and it is my new favorite it cleans stains well and leaves a clean smell for a few days. :up

Dang Bill, you scored big on that one. Geekysteve just received a ton of TWTG. Between the two of you you're ready to open a store.



For those looking for other great deals, I saw some good ones at Pep Boys last week. For example, Meguiar's Final Inspection for $2.80/bottle - was $6.00.
 
hey, a farmstore going out of business is where I got my brush :xyxthumbs didn't have quite as much luck as you did ;)
 
So I have a gas pressure washer that was given to me and I wanted to ask the community if there is a standard for water pressure into the unit.

Where I live has really low water pressure because of the age of the main water line to the house from the street. I don't want to ruin the pressure washer by providing a very low input pressure.

Should I go with an electric model? Do they need less input pressure?? If I had to guess I would say I have less than 40# of pressure at the hose end.

Thanks for any input.

The standard household pressure is 42 to 50 where I live. We have plenty of water flow and if you're around 40, it sounds like you have plenty of water flow to the equipment.
 
I had run a gas one at 35 to 40 psi but my problem was flow (needed 3 gpm so really need a 3+ flow). I have a had a well system that could not keep up (low output well pump and small holding tank.)
 
So I decided to just keep the gas unit. I went to home depot and bought a gun, wand, quick connects, tips and the foam attachment.

I played with it for a few minutes tonight. The gun works great, has a solid feel to it. The foam attachment works well, I sprayed the garage siding with it. I can't wait to clean a car now with this, I'm sure I have been missing out with getting crap rinsed off the car before washing.
