I have a question, I have no drive, no garage and no space outside my house to park my van so apart from me annoying friends and parents by keep turning up on their drives to clean my van is there a handy mobile pressure cleaner that I can buy that gives me enough power to be able to rinse off the roof etc whilst stood on my step ladder in the middle of the road lol
Wash & Wax Time . . . . . . But Which One And How?
- Thread starter Dellmassive
- Start date
I use one of these on my van and caravan - Worx Hydroshot 22bar 20V 2.0Ah Li-Ion PowerShare Cordless Portable Pressure Washer
So does it have a tank so u can use it anywhere, it doesnt need to be hooked up to the garden hose?
Ok I just looked on amazon at the video. Looks perfect thanks
I've had a look at that one and the karcher but some reviews are great and some not so, I suppose if I get it from screw fix or argos I can take it back if its useless

I think @Dellmassive did a video review on something similar but I’m struggling to find it
Screwfix do seem to be quibble free which is good
Yer argos are pretty good at returns too. I think I might go for the worx
Yes I did.... It's here.

I had a rare chance of a day off during the week. So I got the chance of washing the van . I use turtle wax wash and wax — also use autoglym too. Then you guest it it started to snow 10 minutes later
Nice one!Yes I did.... It's here.

That’s the one! If I recall, we ripped the Mickey out of you for chucking the bucket of water over the van at the end?!!
I got the worx last night from argos. I will go clean the van now and see what I think. It was a toss up between that and the karcher but I thought as i dont have the space that it would be easier to store in the van
Am I the only one that takes a step ladder out to do the roof or u guys not bother doing it every wash?

Step ladder here even for cleaning the middle of the windscreen as my toes won't fit under the front wheel arch to stand on the tyre top... Big feet small willy who'd have thought?
Yer also if u stand in the foot well to wash the van gets a little wash...good thought I was being a little OTT lol
I know this is a detailing thread but does anyone know what this is for 
That's the factory jack cover, I can't take a photo at the moment but that's what it is, that goes over the jack and screws down onto the nearside rear wheel arch inside the van.
@starstruck. On the [very] rare occasions that I wash my van, I'm with you in using a stepladder to get to the roof and centre of the windscreen. As I say, I don't do it often so the least that I can do is a half decent job when I do get around to it. I say only half decent as my regime is a quick blow with the pressure washer, a wash over with a cheap Halfords wash and wax (i've been using the same 5L bottle for a couple of years at least) and a rinse off with the pressure washer followed by a quick chamois / microfibre towel and a sealant type polish (currently Turtlewax ceramic stuff). It works for me and looks shiny enough but it's hardly to the concourse standard that a lot on here aim for (every week in some cases!).
Yer ditto. I've just washed it with the ceramic stuff I have already and done the same. I've washed it sprayed it and then micro fibres dry. Its turned out ok...this stuff
That'll do eh. I'm a woman so I'm pretty sure u will let me off
