This item states it is a high pressure water gun. Just so I understand, do you use this with a high pressure washer? I have a Generac high pressure washer. I am wanting something real short so I can get under my car & use it. Also, does it put out a spray like you get with a regular wane or at a car wash. Or is it just a high pressure stream.

Do not waste your money on this item. It is for a pressure washer, but I could not find a fitting that would fit into the handle. Had to send the thing back.

Think of this as a high pressure water jet. It shoots steam and you have to wipe it up. This isn't a steamer/vac combo.

I would guess that this wouldn't do well. I've noticed a good deal less water pressure through this hose than with normal garden hoses. I would think a pressure washer would call for more water than this could provide, but I'm honestly not sure. I have a pressure washer so maybe I'll try it sometime, but I'd be surprised if it would work...

I tried using the plastic tip/tube on the end and it drastically reduced the flow. Although it still did come out just at about 5-10% the normal speed with the trigger/set srcrew set to the max. So my answer is it kinda/sorta works. Hope this helps.

Jeff: I used mine on a concrete driveway and walk. It did a great job and was easy to use. My pressure washer was about the same size as yours.I do not know how it would do on wood. It is pretty powerful and could damage your wood. Sorry I cannot be more helpful and positive. I love mine and would suggest you get it and try it in a corner of your deck. If it works then use it. If it does not, then scrub your concrete driveway or sell it to someone that can use it. You will be way ahead if it works and not out much if it doesn't and you sell it.Good luck,Bill Jeff: I used mine on a concrete driveway and walk. It did a great job and was easy to use.

Yes. We could never get the OneWash to stay started when we first got it. We called Generac who gave us the name of a dealer to take it to but that dealer didn't even work on washers. We called back and again were given the name of a dealer that didn't work on them. We finally went on the Generac web site and found a dealer (about 50 miles from our home) that would look at it for us. They said it was the choke cable and supposedly ordered the part. Three weeks later, when we finally called to see what the delay was, we were told that they thought it was the choke cable but it didn't fix it and they had to put in a new motor -- and we had NEVER used it.

Your electric pressure washer is a relatively low power, low pressure unit. Any extension you use (hose or wand) will reduce the output pressure even more, so I suggest you keep the extensions to a minimum. Only buy an extension wand if you need to reach heights, because they are heavy, awkward, and can be uncontrollable. So, buy a hose extension but stay with the diameter you already have + keep the length to the minimum so you have as much pressure as possible at the end. Take this from someone who has a bigger pressure washer with a hose extension and a 24' extension wand THAT CONTROLS ME - I can hardly control it. Tom

Scott - I purchased the Briggs & Stratton 6195 Quick-Connect Turbo Spray Nozzle for Pressure Washers from Amazon at the same time I purchased my pressure washer. I was pressure washing my concrete driveway and wooden deck. I found that the Turbo Spray Nozzle did great on the house and driveway - better than the nozzles that came with the pressure washer. This head did a circular pattern that cleaned more thoroughly and more quickly than the nozzles provided with the pressure washer

it is a pressurized oil system as it has an oil filter on it. If it were the old type lubrication with a slinger it wouldn't have the oil filter. A side note. I can't say enough about this generator. I am really impressed with this unit and (knock on wood) up to this time is the best piece of machinery I've ever purchased! matter of fact I/we were so impressed with generac that when I wanted a pressure washer my wife suggested a Generac pressure washer, which she purchased for my birthday. This also is a fine unit. I've read negative responses from other customers but I can't say one bad word.

I think all pressure washers have a pretty standard fitting. If you have a residential pressure washer bought from a big box store, you should be okay. I found the nozzle heavy. Aiming down was fine because the weight kept it in place (weight good against the opposing water blast) but for aiming at a higher angle, I switched back to my regular nozzle. There are more options on this adapter than my regular nozzles. A couple of the settings looked to be used with soapy water. Good substantial product.

No. The name on the engine is Generac. I have used this Generac twice without any problems. I am completely satisfied with this unit and engine. I have owned two Craftsman Pressure Washers with B&S engines. Both engines failed in the second year of ownership.

You would probably want to get something more powerful for that. I was using this in my garden and honestly never used the stronger settings.....I couldn't say for sure.....it may be a little bit light for doing what you want. You could always do something like that at a manual car wash....I know the pressure on those is really strong and they have good reach.

It does not do well with normal house water pressure. I would think using it with a pressure washer would be a disaster.

I have never measured the pressure that is put out on my power washer, but have not had any problems with the hose. The hose does not give me a problem with the pressure as my washer does not go that high. I bought it for the length and the durability. It has performed very well. I have about 1/3 of the hose wrapped with velcro and when I need more I can use the excess. Good product. I purchased quick disconnect fittings for the hose and they are very handy.

Hi my friend, tell me about it!!! Worst product! Had the same problem with my new car. I finally took it to a car wash, and used a wand. By getting it wet, it became soft and pliable, allowing me to grab pieces at a time and tear it off. A lot of it peeled off just from the high water pressure. Sad product! It still takes time, but it will come off. Good luck!

If the washer is out of warranty or you don't care if the washer company might make a big deal of using a non-HE detergent, just keep using it. Don't use more than you need or you'll get sudsing that'll reduce the effectiveness of the cleaning. I've been using this in my last two front loaders that recommend HE detergents with no problems. I never use more than the first line on the cup for even large loads. If you get excess suds, use less next time.

Jennifer: I installed this for my aunt in SC. I think your question is about shutting off the flow at the hand held spray head. The answer to that is Yes. The black buttons on the side shuts the flow off to just a trickle that keeps the full supply pressure build up in the hose and hand shower. That is sort of a pause button, so you don't have to turn the water off at the wall. The trickle flow reminds you that it is still on at the wall. This was a good product. It does not come with a hose, but the hoses are sold in the usual big box stores or hardware stores and you can choose the length there. I hope this helps you.
