+1 ... Did two today. Hot water helps.

we did 3 roofs and all 3 were also house washes with some concrete. All done within an 8hr work day and without a pressure washer it would have been impossable to get everything done in that amount of time.

You're using a 12 volt pump and a pressure washer?

Downstream soap with power washer using large orfice tips. Turn off soap valve or pull hose out of bucket and rinse with the same tips. Roughly 100-200 psi.

We have a second system set up for power washing. Very close to the soft wash but high pressure.

I typically just fan it on with my bandit, let it sit on there for about a minute and then rinse it off.

SH, simple cherry, delavan pump. Rinse. I get jobs from home owners that learned the hard way a pressure washer in the wrong hands is a BAD idea.
