Price-conscious models rely on water pressure to lift them off the ground, so rollers are often omitted. However, rollers are a much higher quality alternative. This pressure washing surface cleaner works with all GreenWorks pressure washers and most electric pressure washers up to 2000 PSI. The Greenworks is a major step down in power from the Simpson and Twinkle Star; both of which are compatible with up to 3700-4000 PSI pressure washers. Power The higher the power, the harder the machine will be able to work on tough areas, but some surfaces may require a lighter touch. There are lots of different models for different tasks as well as a range of attachments and optional extras available. These include:

The Briggs & Stratton’s PSI compatibility is slightly better than the Karcher model. Remember, The Karcher model is compatible with a PSI of up to 3200. The Briggs & Stratton is compatible with pressure washers in the 3400 PSI range. DurabilityThe Simpson makes up for its slower cleaning speed with corrosion resistant stainless steel nozzles and lightweight operation. The Wrap-Up Unlike the Twinkle Star, the Greenworks is not equipped with wheels for easy mobility. However, it does come with a soap applicator, 25-foot hose, and rotary brush. Greenworks only covers 11-inches whereas the Simpson and Twinkle Star cover 15-inches; an 11-inch surface area will be perfect for some homeowners and hobbyists though! The Wrap-Up Handling. Looked at comfort, weight, balance and grip, including features like a safety button, the runtime, and noise. Finally, consider how water will drain away when you’re working and remember not to use a pressure washer in freezing temperatures.

If you’ve got a large or commercial area to clean or some seriously built up grime, you’ll be looking for a high powered pressure washer. These pressure washers should be able to clean large areas of paving as well as vehicles, such as 4x4s and caravans. There are a number of things to consider before buying your washer. The tougher the job, the more power you’ll want from your machine. The smaller or more delicate the area, the less power you’ll need.The Twinkle Star is great for anyone with a powerful pressure washer, or those looking for durability and easy mobility. This surface cleaner is best for more advanced pressure washing technicians. A surface cleaner is connected to the high-pressure gun of a pressure washer and thus supplied with water by it. The cleaners, which are usually round in shape, have several nozzles on their underside with which the water is applied at high pressure to the surface to be cleaned. Depending on the model, these nozzles also rotate the water jet to achieve a particularly good cleaning result. Specific car cleaning attachments are also available, including angled tools for reaching beneath the body of the car and brushes to softly clean the bodywork. When choosing a surface cleaner for a pressure washer, you will notice that the biggest differences lie in the workmanship of the housing and the rollers of the attachment.

These pressure washers are ideal for most households. Machines in this range should be able to cope with cleaning paving and garden furniture as well as cars. The surface cleaner is not the only option for cleaning a large area, such as a wooden patio or a paved driveway. It is rivalled by the dirt tiller and the power scrubber. The Simpson’s outer shell is made out of powder coated steel. Again, this is a step below the Twinkle Star in durability; The Twinkle Star’s stainless steel surface is hard to beat! The powder coated steel still receives high marks for durability and corrosion resistance. Features High-quality models can also be recognised by their higher temperature and pressure resistance. This means that they can also be combined with more powerful pressure washers to clean large areas faster and more deeply. The Briggs & Stratton is compatible with most gas pressure washer brands that have a PSI of 2200-3400. The downside is that the Briggs & Straton features a corded-electric power source, which could limit your travel range. PowerShort info: No industrial hoover is needed for most surface cleaners with suction function. How does a surface cleaner work? In our video guide, we outline all of the above points and demonstrate how to use a pressure washer on both vulnerable, easily damaged surfaces and larger areas, such as paths and patios. For a standard car, a mid-range pressure washer should do the job. 4x4s that see a lot of heavy duty use, caravans or commercial vehicles may need a higher end model. All the pressure cleaners we tested are designed to clean cars and camper vans, as well as bikes when you’re out and about. You will need to keep in mind the run time and possibly charge more than once for larger vehicles. The feature we love about this model is that it is self-propelled! Self-propelling surface cleaners are great for every skill level because they are easy to use and easy to push. The Wrap-Up The Karcher weighs in at 3.8 pounds, so it’s considerably lighter than the Simpson and the Twinkle Star. In addition to its lightweight frame, the Karcher comes equipped with a splash-free skirt; you’ll stay dry while you work!
