It is good to mention that pressure washing vinyl siding is not recommended. Some folks do it but it can create tremendous problems. If you are pointing the wand up, it can easily blow water behind the vinyl. If the house is over 20 years old it likely will not have house wrap behind the vinyl which means the sheathing and possibly the insulation will get wet. It can take days or weeks for it to dry out and mold and mildew will grow inside the walls of your house and cause all kinds of respiratory problems for the homeowner.

Really hoping for more The Weekender episodes!

A pressure washer is perfectly safe for cars, but just try and stay at or below about 1800 psi and keep at least about 8 inches of distance from the paint. Also, ALMOST all drive-thru car washes use some form of high-pressure watering systems... food for thought in case you still don't believe my first statement.

You can wash a car with a pressure washer, just need to attach the right tip and keep the right amount of distance. All car detailers use pressures washing techniques and foam cannon's.
