Wow!! Look at that beautiful wood that was hidden under LAYERS of YUCKY. You should ALWAYS take EXTRA SPECIAL CARE of ALL the gifts your spouse gives you!! ALWAYS!!! It shows them that you love and appreciate them and that you appreciate all the love and careful thought they put into deciding what to get you.
Why do men insist on calling their spouse “THE wife”? My husband did......once!
I thought pressure of power washing slightly roughens the surface of what you clean, meaning it makes it easier for moss, mould and lichen to regrow. Best to kill the lichen, etc (if you want it gone) then scrub it clean.

So satisfying! Now I want to quit my job and become a power wash cleaner!
Using a power washer is nasty work. A lot of that grime gets all over YOU. While you get soaked.
If I had a powerwasher I would be offering to clean things for free - just for the pleasure of it!

Last summer my dad wanted to paint some old chairs a different color. We had these two dark gray-green Adirondack chairs that we’d had probably since our house was built. Enter the power washer. Turns out we had two light gray-brown Adirondack chairs. My bad!
Heather Windgale yes
they were cleaning the St. Augustine Church across from our hotel in Paris... HUGE differences! DSCF4237-5...026d83.jpg
I love most of these...esp. some of the old buildings. A few things should have been left alone.

Power washing seems to be the only kind of physical labor people actually enjoy.
Though highly satisfying, the post made me think that our lungs would probably need some sort of powerwashing too
Ps you can rent power washers too.... in case u want to try before you buy
I want a power washer! Now!
Anyone wondering about the waste of water?
The thought did occur to me, but I'd worry more about sprinklers watering huge lawns all summer.
It doesn't use a lot of water since it's pressurized. Plus it waters the plants.
I would do the decks and stuff, but you can have the high shit like domes and skyscrapers.
Headed for the Ocean.
I walked past a guy power washing his driveway a couple of weeks ago and I just had to stop, I was mesmerised! FYI we call it a guerney in Australia :)
Nice post
Can anyone explain, pleae, what's a powerwash?
Pressure washing or power washing is the use of high-pressure water spray to remove loose paint, mold, grime, dust, mud, chewing gum and dirt from surfaces and objects such as buildings, vehicles and concrete surfaces. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_washing
