The rust might be coming from the sprinkler system. The system gets tested and flushed it can leave behind of powdered rust.

Likely run off from fire suppression system (rusty water in sprinkler system pipes) after a maintenance flush. They have to do that every so often and probably could’ve just rinsed it right off with a water hose while it was still wet. 🤷‍♂️ Good that you got that part too with the oil stains part. 👍

Gold assassin degreaser is great. You should try green beast degreaser.

On the note of people paying you for your phone time: Some words of wisdom I gained from my mentor when I was running a self-defense training school: "no matter what you have, services or product, the one thing that is most expensive is your time. Your time is your life energy, and once it's gone you cannot get it back. so if anything, your time should be the most costly." Anyone who is expecting professional advice and counselling should expect to pay for it.

Actually Austin, that's a Kubota engine. Those things run forever with very little problems. They are also very very fuel efficient.

The rust color could be flame retardent, similar to what they use for forest fires helecopters and planes.

That's a 2 cylinder diesel engine, and diesel burner. So it is labeled correctly. That little engine puts out more torque then 3 Honda engines.

Hi I love your videos hehe I have a question where you buy chemical safe or proof shirts ?

How you doing, Austin? I wanna know if you can breakdown how you quoted that. job.

That seems like a lot of work. How much did you charge for this job?

I don't have a hot water system and I'm just starting out. I tried mixing Gold Assassin pretty hot 2:1, scrubbed and let it sit for about an hour. I still didn't see a difference have I pressure washed it off. Is hot water the only way to remove these oil stains? I have another question. I have a 20 inch Simpson surface cleaner. Can I use this surface cleaner with hot water or do I need a surface cleaner specifically for hot water?

Hey, if you did use chemical wouldnt you have to recover the runoff? Did you have a plan for that? Thanks

How did you bid the garage? And how would you bid to wash an entire parking garage, lets say 543,00 SQ ft

What’s your mixture when you do house washes and deck cleaning?

Diesel engine with a diesel fired burner, hence diesel/diesel fuel tanks.

That is a Kubota diesel engine it is very powerful and reliable the engine and the heating unit both run on diesel the machine is built to last

Hi Austin, Question: I had to removed an engine oil spill from a concrete driveway that was sitting for 3 days. I used F9 double eagle degreaser but with cold water. I got a whole bunch of the oil to come off but it still has a ligh mark where the oil spilled. Would the gold assassin and hot water take off more from the concrete? Or is that going to be expected due to the nature of concrete absorbing the oil? The client was very happy I got a lot of the oil off. I just wanted to know if i could have done more. Thanks

@TaylorTheCre8or

Жыл бұрын

I wouldn’t use BARC (Battery Acid Restoration Cleaner). It’s meant for battery acid and rust staining on concrete. Use a degreaser like gold assassin and hot water. Concrete is porous so you’ll never be able to get it all up without removing material. It’s great that your customer is happy and that’s all that matters, but to answer your question, yes there’s a lot more you could have done. 1 Being correct chemical 2 being hot water. Again, if your customer is happy, you did fine. You’ll grow and learn. I would keep a cheat sheet in your truck that tells you what chemicals to use for what types of staining.

@@TaylorTheCre8or Hi Samuel, My mistake, I used the F9 double eagle degreaser to remove the oil. Not the F9 barc. Again, the only noticeable sign was a light shadow mark were the oil spilled. Yes concrete is porous so it will happen. I explained it to the customer and set the expectation. Again, she was happy that the heavy brown oil was gone. I have to try out that golden assassin and rent a hot water unit for oil spills. Well, this is how I cleaned it without a hot water unit. I filled up two 5 gallon bucket with very hot water from the clients house. I poured one hot bucket onto the oil spill with the F9 degreaser. I scrubbed and waited for 15 minutes. Turbo nozzle the first coat off. I apllied a second coat of hot water, f9 and scrubbed. Waited for another 15 minutes. Then I used my cold water surface cleaner to remove the second application. It looked great. I just wanted to make sure I did enough to get it off. Thanks for your input. Always learning something new in this business. A lot of great help from the KZread channel.

@@michaelc7283 ahhh see that changes some things. As far as I’m concerned the only thing you could have done would be just a different degreaser (I would try a few til you find one you like) and having an actual hot water unit. They do make sweeping compound which can help get up fresh oil but that probably wouldn’t have done much in THIS case (but can work, ZEP makes a decently cheap bag). You could also learn about the chemistry behind oil cleanups (if you haven’t already) and the cleanup techniques in OTHER industries (think industrial, janitorial etc). You can soak up oil, you can blow/rinse off oil (especially with degreaser), you can make the droplets smaller, you can remove host material, hell they even make microbes that eat oil. Sounds like you’re definitely on the right track, and given your setup it sounds like you did an amazing job for your client! (EDIT: you also will have a lot of situations where you won’t be able to get everything up!) I’m still new to this business as well, but I’m coming from a successful janitorial business and adding this on as a second company to fill up our days. I built a dual 11gpm trailer and have a couple employees working for me off the bat so I have time to figure stuff like this out. Keep doing what you’re doing brother and wash on!

Get you some sodium hydroxide beads for grease . Works better and much more cost effective. Or keep using gold assassin
