Thanks for all the input guys! I was just going off some charts I'd seen that list what PSI for what jobs. And I don't mind spending a little more for better quality tools that will last me. I think I've narrowed it down to these two, leaning more towards the 3kpsi one. Pressure-Pro...

Ah nice. I work in Harrisburg, but I live in Albemarle. You're not too far away at all.

Thanks for the info! I'm right outside of Charlotte as well, small world. From your post count I bet I could learn a good bit from you.

I am, just needed some direction as well. The only reason I knew about the triplex pump over the axial was doing a little research. Still surprising to see axial pumps on $600+.

I came across this as well... Pressure-Pro PPS3030HCI Semi-Pro 3000 PSI Gas Cold - Water Aluminum Frame Pressure Washer w/ Honda Engine & CAT Pump

I had looked at those as well, as I see that name tossed around a lot on here. But Couldn't find any that allowed for adjustable pressure. Most of the cannons I see work up to 2600, but i'd like 3k+ for concrete cleaning, etc. And to me it looks as if the cannons are placed at the end of the...

Thanks for those answers, exactly what I needed. I was actually looking at the generac brand. I came across a few options, but now I don't know if I should jump up to the triplex style pump for the reliability? These are some that I was looking at... axial pump but allows pressure...

I know, another pressure washer thread, I have read a lot and still not certain though. I was going to simply get an electric just for cars and be done with it. But the wife wants one to clean the concrete,brick, etc on the house. So I'd like to get a gas one that I can use for both purposes...

5.5" Thanks!

Got this yesterday afternoon. I believe I have some busy weekends ahead!

gotcha, thanks!

I was just thinking maybe I could level it out with the rest of the paint better, not necessarily making it look any better. But that could just be some crazy thinking. As I'm pretty clueless when it comes to touchup or anything like this. Thanks for the suggestion though. I'll probably keep...

I hit a few spots on my truck with some touch up paint. I have some clear coat to go on that after it cures. But I was curious for anyone familiar with this, would it be best to get a few coats of the base paint down and then use a DA to correct and blend it in smooth and then put the clear...

Yea, I believe that's what I'll go with. Thanks!

Seems the 5.5" helps to keep the polisher from bogging down some? I like that concept. I seem to be set on everything except the type of Pad. CCS or Flat? Also, I think I'll go with the griots garage polisher as well. But get the 5.5" backing plate with it.

Just curious on the 5.5" pads vs 6.5" on the 5" backing plate?

Thanks for that Chart! And the article for how many pads you need is a definite plus. Guess I never thought of that. But will definitely follow it. Thanks for the help so far.

I'll probably use the 6 1/2" CCS pads. Mostly because it's a fairly large truck. Probably use some 4" on tighter spots and windows.

I had noticed that as well, about it having a wax in it. So after the swirl remover #1 which seems like a polish as well, think I should go straight to the wax/sealant? I don't mind the extra work/time. Just want to do it the best I can the first time.

Hi everyone, Always loved detailing cars, just never got too in depth as some do. But now I got a new to me truck that I want to get the paint right on it and take care of it from here on out. Paint is decent, has water spots, spider webs/swirl marks pretty bad. I like pinnacle products...
