Oh no. I have been using the X-jet M5 twist as my primary downstream soap & rinse nozzle for this whole season..... joe, this video has completely flipped my world upside down! I have been under the assumption i am pulling 10:1..... its back to the lab tomorrow, i will have to do a flow test. As always, THANKS

Good stuff Joe, great explanation for the new guys! Love my j-rod but i did buy a turbo nozzle for small areas of brick or concrete after seeing you use one. I also started using a foam cannon, fill it up with bleach and soap (hot mix) for those little add on jobs people want sometimes like a quick roof wash on a shed. I don't usually do roof washes so it saves me from having to make mix a batch of roof mix. Works great, goes on thick and doesnt move and does a pretty good job with cleaning.

Good review bro, m5 x jet is also a guideline for gallons matched to your pressure washer 😀

I’m just starting and initially I will probably stick to flat work. In the event I want to start house washing and considering I don’t have any soft wash equipment now, what would recommend would be the best to start (12v system, downstream with a Jrod, x-jet, etc)?

Good content brother! Very helpful information for the new fellas, and even then guys like me who’s been in the game a while. I love my Xjet, use it often Scott

Hey Joe, great video but was curious on why you choose to rinse with a different tips/nozzle rather then a ball valve style on the end of your hose? Just curious if it would be easier to soap with the m5 as you explained and then remove and rinse with the ball valve?

@powerfulimprovements

3 жыл бұрын

Hey Isaiah. One main reason is I don’t use a ball valve on my set up. We don’t do a lot of flat work so rarely swapping guns. I may give soaping and rinsing either the ball valve a try later this season

Yea i picked up a new twist dont really need to pull anything jus rinse

Good video 👍

I haven't had a lot of luck depending on the pull of the chemical injector or the "venturi" effect, especially when on a lift or using extensions. I also have a separate low pressure 200 psi system that I'm wondering whether I could just use that every time and, if so, regardless of the tip would it pull chemicals? If you know, please respond. Thx.

thanks for that
