Reccomend me a pressure washer

Budget - Around £50 but would go to £75ish for a good deal

Purpose - Car cleaning, various car parts cleaning and maybe patio cleaning

Preferably somewhere i could pop in tomorrow and get it.





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Just remeber the advice here from the guy who did the patio cleaning. Factor in some money for a high quality breathing mask.

I've used a B&Q pressure washer for years (about 40 quid). Spend 20 quid on a decent chemical filter mask too and it will be useful for a long time.

IIRC it was mentioned that the mould/green stuff growing on the patio is a neuro toxin when in vapour form (i.e. in the back spray mist).

I got an old cheapo Argos one about 6 yrs ago and the only problem i have had with it is that the Lance split internaly last year and it was not a seperate lance with a screw on pipe fittings , so i had to buy a new lance and feed pipe, but apart from that its been ok .

If it can be done it i will be done .
