I have a gasoline Husky pressure washer. What type of soap fluid do I need? Model number is HU80432A.
Answer
The user manual says "Use only detergents designed for pressure washers; household detergents, acids, alkalines, bleaches, solvents, flammable material, or industrial grade solutions can damage the pump. Many detergents may require mixing prior to use. Prepare cleaning solution as instructed on the solution bottle."
Searches at a few web sites for pressure washer soap returns hits. Home DePeau has a 'packet' thingie that looks like it'd get pretty expensive if you need much. Walmart has a few options.
The main intent of this is that you don't use any solvents, acids. alkalines, bleaches that might damage the *pump*.
Since this is the kind of thing that you're going to be blowing soap all over the landscape I'm a big fan of Simple Green and other environment-friendly biodegradeables, so I looked that up too. The first URL below has a whoooole page of SG FAQ, including power washer. See that for details about dilution, eye protection, and watering lawn afterward to push the residue into the ground.
Ahhhh, the simplegreen.com site says they have a pressure washer specific cleaner. Doesn't say what's 'different' about it though. There's a FAQ page that says "Pressure Washers & Power Washers â Are Simple Green® products pressure washer safe? Simple Green is pressure washer safe. Simple Green also offers products specifically designed for use in pressure washers. These pressure washer concentrates can be located on the Products page of the Simple Green website.
The third URL is a press release. Actually they have a whole *line* of pressure washer specific stuff for different purposes. But again they don't really say what's 'different.' Unless they say something specific, it's all marketing-speak to me designed to sell more stuff. YMMV.

Should I wash my rug at the car wash?
PlasticTre
I got the idea from my friend. He said that's how he cleaned his mom's rugs.
One of my dogs has white hair and sheds a LOT. There are white hairs embedded in the rug that I can't get out with the vacuum or carpet cleaner.
If I use the pressure washer at the car wash.. will there be any drawbacks? Can it damage the rug? *It's a huge cheap rug anyway from walmart*

Sounds like a good idea but the only thing is it's going to be sopping wet, how are you ever going to get it dry. If you have a truck you could put it in the back of it once clean then take it home and hang it over a fence or something. Good luck!:)
I would just shampoo it with a shampooer.
