In this video I go over how to Pressure Wash a Driveway using Chemicals and a Surface Cleaner to Clean Concrete Driveways. A couple of things I forgot to mention were to try and use the least amount of high pressure hose possible so you don't reduce your flow from your power washer and that going side to side rather than up and down with the surface cleaner will reduce the visibility of any line overlaps that are left visible in the driveway.

Great video Ray 👍 Most driveways that I do, I'll start by pre-rinsing all the expansion joints out and getting all the existing dirt off. It really depends on the condition of the driveway though.. I just picked up 10 gallons of Gold Assassin and I can't wait to see how it works with cold water. Keep hustlin' broski! 😎👍

It helps reduce visibility of the overlaps where the surface cleaner goes over the same spots twice. Something I meant to touch on in the vid.. Hard to remember every detail when recording lol

@crazydm7th 3 года назад

Ray, the part about 4" per 1 gallon per minute for your machine is a myth, I run two 28" Big Guys on a 8 gpm machine all the time with no issue at all, yes we go just a little bit slower but in my opinion it cleans better. But I do run 100ft of 1/2" line per hose reel with 200ft of 3/8" hose after the 1/2". That way we can reach out 300ft per side of the trailer and get it done! Great information you are putting out, keep it up!

I told them I would throw it in and they actually asked me not to do it lol I think they were upset for having have it cleaned over the oil spots.

@alexness3745 3 года назад

Great video. I’m new to learning about pressure washing. So you use the soft wash system to pretreat? If I were to start a pressure cleaning company one day without all of the soft wash equipment, what’s the next most efficient way to pretreat?

@02191977 3 года назад

Hey Ray, love your educational videos, great job, just a quick question. What kind of softwash system do you use with your car remote control is so crazy I love it, and what do you think about the air pressure softwash system? Good day.

@RaymondNotario 3 года назад

Thanks brother. This is one I bought awhile back. I am actually not very happy with the Leader pump, this is my 3rd one this year and I won't be using it after my new rig is finished. Moving on to another setup that i'll make a vid on when it's done

@SmithsOutdoorSurface 2 года назад

I’m late to this video I just been going down the rabb it hole this week and found you. Best channel I found so far. Question is PATIOS, I live in North Jersey. We have pavement driveways and paver patios, NO CONCRETE !! Can u treat paver patio block with DH ? What’s the best route to take ?

@papychulo2005 3 года назад

Great video! I learned a lot. I do have a question though. I’m still learning and practicing on my property. I didn’t use any chemicals and just ran the surface cleaner with water. After everything dried up I noticed lines. Am I still able to post treat it even though it’s been a few days?

@RaymondNotario 3 года назад

Thanks man it wouldnt hurt to try id bet it would remove the lines

@chaunceydixon9329 3 года назад

The job look awesome but as a guy in the same business, it's always good to throw in a little extra time and effort (the walk way) to gain a loyal customer even if it wasn't in the negotiating

@RaymondNotario 3 года назад

The builder got oil on the driveway while working on the property, I told her I would do the walk way free of charge and she asked me specifically not to do any thing other than the driveway. She was upset that they had to come out of pocket over a small oil stain. It's hard for me to morally not do what the person paying me for the job asks. It did get my ocd going to leave it though LOL

@joshuacalimag167 2 года назад

I was curious as why the walkway wasn't done either.

@onemischiefmaker7032 2 года назад

You have done an excellent job and very knowledgeable and informational. But regardless you should have done the side walk as well.

@ar-hmfic975 Год назад

Great video, excellent information, so when you used the surface cleaner did you use any chemicals when cleaning or was it straight water.

@bobriensan 3 года назад

Hey Ray, I've got a 40yr old concrete slab driveway, 2000 sq ft in Massachusetts, dirty but no oil stains. Some local pressure washing companies say they only use water when pressure washing concrete driveways (or heated water), others use chemicals, such as F9 Groundskeeper. Should I steer clear of the ones only planning on using water? Thanks!

@chrisswartzwelder8494 2 года назад

Do you run the line off the unloader so it does not go back to the pump if you don’t spray for awhile so it don’t burn off the pump. Great vid helped me a lot.

Hello, Sir. I did my first two jobs yesterday. It is hard work! Question - some of my QC's are already becoming a PIA connecting/disconnecting. What type of lube would you recommend for them?

@RaymondNotario 3 года назад

I don't know of any lube that helps, but if you get a good stainless steel quick connect it may help your situation. Spend a few extra bucks on better quality and it will be worth it in the long run

@gercast7838 3 года назад

Hey Raymond, thank you for all the useful information. Do have any recommendation on handling the white oxidation from brick houses, because I really can’t find any information on making the bricks look clean. I would really appreciate if you can give me a tip or links to getting rid of the white look on the bricks. Thank you very much I appreciate your time and help.

@RaymondNotario 3 года назад

Yes I do. I would try either nmd80 or Onerestore. There is also a chem called white scum remover. I think the white on brick you are referring to is called efflorescence

@Okie-Tom 2 года назад

Very good explanations. Do you have links where to order the degreaser? Thanks, Tom

@alexrobles4740 3 года назад

With the chipping parts of the concrete did you still pretreat those areas, and/or does it cause more chipping when adding those pretreaters? Also does using the surface cleaner over the chipping areas chip the concrete more ?

@Chris72401 2 года назад

Sodium hypochlorite does not affect concrete as it is not an acid. It is alkaline and will not etch. You always have a risk of damage, but setting the pressure at an acceptable setting for the type of concrete is key. Pressure sprays, but volume cleans. If that makes any sense.

@richdewitt760 3 года назад

Ray, Great tutorial, as usual Sir! Here in NJ, weather and security always a concern, want your thoughts-- Growing from 8ft truck bed to a new trailer build next season--would you look at open or Enclosed trailers if your were in my shoes? Rich

@RaymondNotario 3 года назад

Given that you are concerned about theft and the cold, i'd def steer more towards a box truck. If I were to go that route i'd try to cut in some roll up door on the passenger side to work out of and so the equipment gets displayed to the customer.

@richdewitt760 3 года назад

@@RaymondNotario Thanks Ray....good suggestion...

@premierpowerwash1806 3 года назад

Have you tried plugging opposite holes on the bar to see if it cleans different? I'm thinking that having them offset might help to feather out any lines. If mine had 4 holes I'd try it.

@RaymondNotario 3 года назад

No I haven't tried that, but i've heard of people putting different degree tips in the other 2 holes.

@mikeschmitt5273 3 года назад

Great video content Ray. Just staring out. I noticed you went side to side from the bottomnup that driveway with the surface cleaner. Any reason not to do long passes? Thank you

@RaymondNotario 3 года назад

So when you make passes with the surface cleaner it is very hard not to go overlap a couple inches over a spot that has already been cleaned. This causes "lines" sometimes. The side to side method makes this much less noticeable
