Hypo
« on: April 01, 2014, 02:49:56 pm »
Hi new to pressure washing! How do you apply the hypo (chlorine) to the paving? Are there special sprayers or do you use watering cans? Any help would be greatful

It is really caustic stuff, so you would be better using a watering can, and use PPE.

How good is it I have only ever used a powerful electric pressure washer with no chemicals and it struggled on some marks would like to get all stains and marks of I will be buying a 13hp honda in the next couple of weeks and I have a job around a swimming pool which apparently the last cleaner used chemicals and done a good job I thought I might get some and try here!

Mate don't hold me to this as I myself have not used it yet and don't intend to for the time being, but I've read quite a lot about it and from what I can gather you mix it generally with a mix of 3:1 ie 3 litres of water to 1 litre of hypo. From research most people seem to go over the area with a flat service cleaner then if needed pour the hypo over the desired area and leave for 20 minutes then rinse off. Don't allow it to dry. I hope I have informed right and if I have not someone please correct me as I've never used it it's just what I have read on here.
