Portable Parts Washer 1st Glance Tool Review (BikeMaster Portable Parts Washer)

First look and test of the BikeMaster portable parts washer. The reason I chose this parts washer was its portability and relatively small footprint. With those features, I can pull it out when I need it, and tuck it away and out of sight when not in use and not taking up valuable shop space.

Thats pretty cool brother . Thanks for sharing. Till next time

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Thank you my friend! It's been great so far...

[@henrymurawskibigdogrepair]

That’s nice good luck with it

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Thanks Big Dog!

[@RaleysSmallEngines]

Nice KB. maybe a fuel shut off valve to regulate flow, or what rooster said was a great idea also. Very handy tool.

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Thank you T-Bone. I will definitely be adding something to help the flow.

[@LNRRidez]

10:20 is why I haven't bought one, all the others do feel cheap & flimsy from TSC or Harbor Frieght. This likes like a very good option. I have very little use for one also which is the second reason I haven't bought one. Great video!

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Sounds like we (were) in the same boat. I will keep you posted with a 3 or 6 month review.

[@TheRustyRooster]

Good video Kb. Neat washergive us an update on how you like it in 6 months I'm interested to know. "T" off the hose install a valve then you can adjust the amount of flow to the brush without adding back pressure on the pump.

[@waynestefinashen239]

Great tip Rusty Rooster

[@RaleysSmallEngines]

Rooster thinks of everything 😆 smart guy

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Thanks Rooster! Genius, I will do just that. I will also do an update video and share how it is holding up. Thanks for the tip!

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Yes sir!

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

No kidding!

[@TLMD]

Thanks!

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

WOW, thank you Detective! You are the (Donut) MAN! I don't know what that is, but thank you!!!

[@mr1pearl]

I like it cause its portable so for me that would work . I would put a shut-off valve in the line , that way you could adjust flow . I don't think it would affect the pump but that is just me winging it ! 👍

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

That is a great idea, then you could just close it off slightly. I think I will give that a try. Thanks!

[@khalidalghamdi8987]

What liquids are you using?

[@smyth602]

Thanks for the review! I've had a couple of the cheap metal ones and the pumps give out really fast. How has this held up?

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Thanks Martin! It has held up really well and has not given me any problems so far. Still working great and and I haven't even changed the fluid yet.

[@borderlineapathetic]

Thanks for the review. What and where did you get a coupon for it? Also When I first saw this model the first thing that popped in my head was that the brush hose will need a flow control valve. I probably have an extra B&S fuel line valve laying around for this...Or something from the home box store.

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Thank you! I have had it in my cart forever, so it was one of those deals that popped up that said clip the coupon and save 20% at checkout. I will definitely be adding something to the hose for the brush flow.

[@borderlineapathetic]

@@kbssmallenginerepair2615 I found an "open box" OEM Parts version of the washer on the big A for $101, The OEM is usually a tad more expensive probably because it has a better brush. But I like that wand/brush a little better as it's angled and more ergo. Thanks again.

Draper 22494 230V Portable Parts Washer hello brother I watched the video and the explanation is really excellent and wonderful. I have a question, what kind of liquid should I put, is it water or soapy water or alcohol or oil cleansers. Thank you I wish you a nice day Good-bye

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

I put Purple Power in it. It specifically states you must use a water based cleaning solution so you don't ruin any of the seals or the pump due to it being a lightweight all plastic piece of equipment.

[@TLMD]

Very nice work brother! Don't forget to choose a Donut......lol

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Thanks Detective...I choose a donut everytime! Even in Hawaii, I had several malasadas. Have you had one of them? Oooooh boy. 😂

[@AlexKost-tq6bj]

Definitely not 20L (5 gallons). I measured it exactly so the fluid is flush with the filler hole and it's 15L, that's 4 us gallons, but can we all just use metric ;) In general, works alright but wash basin is too shallow so it doesn't spray everywhere. Also, why wouldn't they seal the gap between the back lid hinges, water just sprays through there onto the floor.

[@waynestefinashen239]

Nice portable parts washer video just wondering what type of cleaner you are using in it? Varsol or a biodegradable degreaser?

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Thanks Old Man! I have been using Purple Power (biodegradable) in it so far.

[@waynestefinashen239]

We tried that originally but found that if we left the carb in too long the stuff etched the aluminium and darkened it so we have switched to Indo 701 and ZEP Orange degreaser which work excellent even at dilution rates of one ounce to 3 litres of water. ZEP by far the easiest on the wallet.

[@FarmerGuy-1]

New reviews are good. But a 3-6 month review can seal the deal.

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Thank you my friend, I will do an update in a few months!

[@DeGoriLawnCare1514]

What kind of wash do you use or degreaser?

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

I have used Purple Power in this thus far...

[@ralphwatten2426]

Can you pick this thing up and carry it with a/the handle when it has cleaning fluid in it?

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

I can. Mine holds about 4-4.5 gallons of fluid. So it is like carrying a 5 gallon bucket full of water, but yes you can move it around for sure.

[@ralphwatten2426]

@@kbssmallenginerepair2615 Thanks KB.

[@ericrivera219]

Is that a water base solution

[@kbssmallenginerepair2615]

Yes it is. I used Purple Power, which is water based.

[@familyfree2994]

I thought this was for bikes 🤣 anyways that's dope.

[@davidomalley6104]

Does it heat the liquid at all?
