What do you use to clean crud off your landy?

I allow the butler to use my industrial hot washer.

 

[Turboman]

Industrial Karcher. Goes up to 2500 psi, diesel water heating electric pump. Cold, hot, steam clean. For vehicle washing you have to go a bit easy, about 60C and 1000 psi. Parts being cleaned for painting you can strip a lot of the paint and rust with the washer! Useful for washing livestock trailers anorl!

how long have you had it i had one ,but when it went wrong was told most of it was unserviceable so i bought an ehrle instead which has the added advantage of applying detergent at full power

Three and a bit years, I think. Doubt if it gets as much use as in a garage environment, though. Mostly just trailer washing, and washing off machinery before servicing or repair.
I dont use the chemicals, usually the hot wash is adequate, if it is very bad I degrease with a stiff brush first. Mine is converted to use the chemical tanks to carry extra water, cos our pressure is lousy on well water.
Others have said that Ehrle are good, doubt if they are that cheap either, though!

That should wash the Landy off the crud no worries

I told you titanium fencing was a sound investment

Found it while touring Peterbilt dealers in Pennsylvania
