Hi !!!!!!!

I am looking to buy a high pressure washer for my car! If you have one, please comment on which brand you think works better!

thanks!!

 

I have a 2,700 psi by Landa, 2,700 psi by Mi-T-D and a Dirt Killer H360. Either of these brands make excellent washers. I'm a big fan of Honda or Kawasaki small engines...
Not sure if you're looking at an electric or gasoline washer, either way I would recommend no less than 2,000 psi and no larger than 2,700 psi. For more demanding uses other than your vehicle I would purchase a turbo blaster tip..

 

i only own 1... BlackMaxx/ with Honda engine... had it for 15/16 months now, never had a problem and works great.

 

Thanks for commenting guys I heard more than 2,000psi can potentially damage the paint? I'm looking to get an electric one compatible with a foam cannon

 

I have a kranzle 1122tst and it's great.

 

so anything below 2700 is safe for car paint?

 

There is no guarantee that any particular pressure is safe for paint. I use s 2000 psi PW and haven't had any issues, but you must use common sense in regards to what tip you use, how close to the vehicle you are, etc.

 

Where can you guys buy these?? I thought garden hose is sufficient for car washing?

 

A hose is just fine... a pressure washer is absolutely NOT necessary for washing your car. It is simply an additional tool that some people choose to use.

 

Ah good to hear, you save me money. I thought I would spend some money testing thing out again haha.

 

i think its helpful whenever you get stubborn spots that's not coming off, you can PW it off rather than rubbing, which could create some swirls

 

I should have been more clear when posting. I do not use my pressure washer directly on any vehicles, I use mine in conjunction with a foam cannon. I see vehicles all the time where paint has flaked off do to usage of pressure washers, especially rubber bumpers. Also see a lot of condenser fins damaged by washers
I use my washers for more demanding projects, multiple uses instead of limited.... so I prefer a higher psi rated washer. I control pressure by tip size and any selected attachments.
If you're not going to foam, buy a good water nozzle and remove and store after usage for longer life
