Power washing can restore that 'new look' to dirty decks, patios, walks
and fences. High-pressure water is all that's needed in most cases. A
flat fan tip works best for wooden surfaces, while a swirling
dirt-blaster tip cleans masonry surfaces best.
When cleaning wood, especially with power washers over 2,000 psi, be
careful not to scar the wood or make it 'fuzzy' with too much pressure
at too close a range. It's also important to clean the entire length of
a board to prevent start and stop marks.
POWER WASHING TIPS
-
Start
spraying with the cleaning tip well away from the surface and
gradually bring the tip to within the range you would like to spray
the rest of the board. Use a steady, continuous motion and continue
across the length of the entire board instead of using short, back
and forth motions.
-
When cleaning
masonry surfaces, use a circular motion to minimize noticeable marks
on the surface. Consider sealing the surface after it's been cleaned
and allowed the proper amount of drying time.
