Re: [gbatrucks] Pressure washer

Where I retired from I was the Facilities Engineer among other things and our pressure washer was commercial grade. When researching I found that the recommended detergent must be biodegradable. The brand we bought was the brand from the company in the above link. We purchased the largest size to save money. Any brand of biodegradable detergent will be safe. As far as I know you will be able to go to Home Depot and read the labels or even a commercial cleaning wholesale type store and find what you need for the best price. You might not find the mixture on non power washer detergent labels but you find the mixture on power washer detergent labels [or online] and use that mixture for anything you do buy. Good luck. Commercial cleaning companies are generally cheaper than Home Depot, but Costco , Walmart and Sam's Club have good prices. When going to Home Depot in Mexico, we just completed building a house, compared to San Diego my wife has to check out everything for hours and she is always amazed how high prices in Mexican Home Depots are. Once she was going to take a Badger 3 garbage disposal on the plane and decided not to. It was $99.00 + tax. When she went to buy it in San Luis Potosi at the Home Depot she paid $2,500 pesos for the same thing. The double the price there and savings in San Diego would have almost paid her cost of the one way airfare. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I find in general American products in Mexico usually sell for full retail price with zero discount no matter if they are made in Mexico or not. The full retail on the Badger 3 is $199.00 US and that is what my darling wife paid.
