Just hit it hard with a pressure washer to remove the mildew and then coat with some Thompson's water seal after it dries out a bit. You're right though, nothing's gonna stick to pressure treated lumber long. Maybe try plasti-dip spraying the legs and see how it holds up. The only other...

So long as you get all the wheel cleaner out of the feed tube.

That might be the only thing I would ever tunnel wash.

Yep, love the look, might be my favorite of all time. But the longevity is just terrible. Not worth the time spent because I just can't keep up with a vehicle every month like that.

Guilty.

Then wouldn't a sudden rain storm or washing the car in the heat cause the same issue? How many cars go thru car washes and don't come out etched? I respect research, but I also respectfully disagree with that finding. Faulty or incomplete conclusion, IMO.

When you wax a car, you have to wipe off the excess wax. When you use an AIO, the dirt from the paint typically gets transferred into the pad and turns it dirty. When you wipe off the excess residue (just like you have to with regular wax) any lingering dirt goes into your towel. AIOs...

You're correct on that all things equal, and I did look up on the snowjoe.com website (makers of the Sun Joe) and they list the hose as 1/4" as well. Don't know why exactly the pressure was less, but it was significant. On the stock hose, I can't comfortably hold my hand in the stream of...

A pad with no cut, will not impart it's own scratches into the paint. That's what you want to use with a super fine polish like Menzerna's SF4500. SF= super finish. FG=fast gloss, SC= super cut? Don't get too hung up on the nomenclature. The hybrid pads are beveled inward where the Velcro...

Just buff in the buff.

Well, I can report that I attempted attaching the posted blue hawk 30' 1/4" diameter hose. It didn't work right. Pressure is significantly less than with the original hose. I did attempt to use the quick disconnects and Teflon tape as well with very little leaking. It shouldn't have been...

We have one, I'd avoid the 2013 jx35 model (we have this one) and check into the newer models. Ours has had several issues, all fixed under warranty except for one that they can't pin down. -Sunroof seal degraded and fell apart (fixed under warranty) -Drivers door seal needs replaced (will be...

Do they make microfiber one-sy jumpsuits?

for your friend's sake, I would post no more details of the legal implications. I'd get a wool or foamed wool pad and go over it with that to see where you stand. Cutting foam pads are great, but they simply don't cut like (foamed) wool. Richy talks about some TB black wool pads that he...

Best mitt I've ever used. The only one that touches my car.

So let me ask a clarifying question, because I got confused in reading the last page of replies: Does the blue hawk 30' hose connect to the main unit and spray gun without any adapters? I know someone stated they chose to use quick disconnects, but are those necessary? If they are, please...

One obvious solution would be to keep drinking.

I'd pass on the job personally. Typically, they scuff the surface before applying to truck beds for adhesion purposes. If you take it off and they scuffed the aluminum, it's gonna look like poo.

What specifically are you trying to loosen?

A pipe? A vehicle isn't plumbing. You might want to find out exactly what was done and if you aren't sure what they did, ask someone you trust that knows vehicles, or post up here. A used car is always a bit of a gamble, I would be concerned you are currently doubling down in an attempt to...
