Default Pressure washers

Anybody use them? If so what pressure do you need? Thinking of getting one.

High pressure H2O and motors are not a good idea

If you're talking about using one on your bike - don't do it!&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;

So I guess it's not a good idea. Why would it be any different than going to the car wash?

Please don't do that.

Your next post would be why isn't the readout on my radio working or why are my gauges full of water vapor or why isn't my bike running right.

Car washes are designed to wash cars and leave the paint.&nbsp\\; Power washers are desiged to remove everything down to the base material.&nbsp\\; In other words,&nbsp\\; car washes have lower pressure and a wider spray pattern.
