Good stuff Joe, great explanation for the new guys! Love my j-rod but i did buy a turbo nozzle for small areas of brick or concrete after seeing you use one. I also started using a foam cannon, fill it up with bleach and soap (hot mix) for those little add on jobs people want sometimes like a quick roof wash on a shed. I don't usually do roof washes so it saves me from having to make mix a batch of roof mix. Works great, goes on thick and doesnt move and does a pretty good job with cleaning.
