101st like 👊🏽 Good work bro.! Im from NY but down in FL now and about to start up a Softwash Biz myself.. lookin forward to it and appreciate your content! 🙏🏽

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

Awesome bro! Good place to be for it!

[@1HourBule]

Would love to see your prep of the homes before spraying.. Like how you go about wetting plants/trees/grass and if you use gutter bags for down spouts

[@TheJwilson16]

I was just about to ask the same thing and it may be in a previous video but I haven’t dug all the way back

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

Will do

Hey man, love the channel. I notice you don't cover up the light fixtures/ security cameras/ electronics. Have you ever had an issue with this? The last house I did I blew out 2 lights on a house because I got SH on them, and now I'm real nervous around the lights/electronics.

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

Hey Frank. I've done over 300 washes and I popped a outdoor socket 1 time. Don't hit outlets or lights any different then how it would rain on them. It doesn't pop during a thunderstorm so it shouldn't with a wash. Light fan spray around those types of things and never directly if you can help it. If the odds were worse than 1 in 300+ then I'd probably tape or cover but at those odds and being a little careful it's just a waste of time

Killed it 🔥🔥. How would you clean a home with oxidation on the vinyl? Currently having this problem

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

I've never done it but Raymond Notario has a good video on it

[@patriotpreacher66]

Hey man, I appreciate your content. Really good being "straight forward". I'm ready to put together my first soft wash system. I see on your "everything you use" list that you list a 1/2 inch hose and a 3/4 hose. Are they both for soft wash? why 2 sizes? Thanks....

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

Hey Jim. Both are soft wash hoses. Hose size is all personal preference. Some like 1/2 some like bigger. I'm currently using 5/8 kuritech. It's nice paired with a flojet 6gpm

[@cleancoastpressurewashingl2430]

Great videos as always, are you rinsing with the 12v also?

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

Some times 12v sometimes homes spigot

[@cleancoastpressurewashingl2430]

@@YoungAmbitionYA I like 12v myself but always seem to heavy rinse with my 5.5, I don’t like call backs for dried SH I may have missed. All good thou wash on. 👍🏻

[@jbl8541]

What gun have you found works best for you now. Thanks

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

I've been using sutner st510 for awhile now

[@tasmanianoutdoors]

Another great video. Maybe i missed it, but did you pre treat the trex? Or just pressure?

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

Just pressure. Pretreatment with SH can be a help too and a fine option. Same with concrete

[@danglestache2019]

i know you have mentioned that you do not use surfactant for house washes , im wondering how much time you save considering , quick rinsing , but do you have to do multiple coats on a dirty house ? or at that point do you use some surfactant?

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

The soap doesn't do any cleaning. It's just sticky and pulls debris and crap to the ground easier. SH does all the work with the mold and algae. I spray sh on and let it dwell for 1 minute and rinse. It's a little quicker since the sh rinses much easier than soap. Using soap is fine I just choose not to at the moment

[@danglestache2019]

@@YoungAmbitionYA yea I’ve always been using surfactant for house washing , gunna try without to see how fast I can rinse lol

[@mr.doitall]

Great video bro! I can appreciate the hustle. As someone previously commented I’d like to see how you prep before spraying chem. I know some use tyvek to cover plants & some who never cover plants & instead just water everything before, during & after. The thought of both scare me a bit. If you cover for too long you can kill the plants & certain plants I know will burn/die if our SH even touches it. I get a bit nervous with like rose beds or sensitive plants thatre right up on the house. Especially since I’m a one man show like you lol

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

Hey Kellen. Make sure your blend is good. Never more than 3% on a siding wash and you'll be OK. 2.5% is usually perfect. Wet plants first then rinse thoroughly while you rinse the house. No big deal. I never cover plants

[@gregsmith9810]

Those size houses would have taken me twice as much time and that’s rinsing with a 5 gpm pressure washer. I’m obviously adding unnecessary steps. Could you video a house wash beginning to end. I’d come spend a day with you if you weren’t so far away. Thanks.

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

Practice makes perfect. I've had a few hundred washes to help me trim the fat. Routine is everything. I do believe I have a handful of full washes on my channel. Check them out. I'll try to do a newer one this season

[@TheJwilson16]

Awesome videos and such a fast process as always !! I’m still also trying to figure out the best way to rinse/pre wet the planets . Pull out the pw hose and use that then jumping to my 12v but it’s taking forever lol. Are you running a 7gpm pump for your 12v and was it a delvan is the name ? Sorry again to be long winded

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

All good Jeff. I use a flojet 6gpm. Make sure you mix is under 3% and rinse plants. Plants will be fine

[@TheJwilson16]

@@YoungAmbitionYA thank you again for the response brother ! So you are using Your 12v to pre wet,add chem and rinse ?

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

@@TheJwilson16 yes sir

[@ScottyBeen1000]

Do you ever pre wet a house that's in direct sunlight before soft washing?

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

Yes. If it's hot and full sun I'll cool the siding and glass down

[@ScottyBeen1000]

@@YoungAmbitionYA Thank you boss man!

[@simplycleanpressurewashing758]

That deck looked like the old trex decking….I use 3-4% sh let sit for 10-15 minutes, keep wet then rinse. Not my favorite to do..thanks for the videos.

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

Hey 👋 yeah it's definitely older. I'll give that a try next time thanks!

[@robertclark2935]

How do you keep from loosing so much weight washing all those houses in one day ,, my metabolism so high I will lose about 3 lbs. a day lol

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

I've lost 15lbs since mid march 🤣

[@tomuzagregv.8300]

Grab you an 18-24” lance to pop on your gun so you don’t have to bend over so much; save that back! May also work with the 12v for added reach if needed. Definitely agree with 3% dwell and rinse ( I use xjet m-5ds to rinse). Nice work on the 4 bangers too! Oh and a Balaclava for your face! 😊

[@YoungAmbitionYA]

Yes I need a face mask for windy days. I have a Lance on the truck. I find it's easier to cause damage with the turbo nozzle on pained wood like the house siding and railing here. Bending over and holding the gun in my opinion gives me more control and no damage. I use the Lance on paver and concrete

[@tomuzagregv.8300]

That make total sense👍 I’m an ole’ guy with bad disc so that bending over can get kinda tough quick for me. 😁
