How much pressure from an electric power washer will take the paint off of my car?
Question:I'm looking for an electric power washer to clean my cars, driveway, house siding etc. But I'm worried that too much pressure could harm what I want to clean.
Answers:
I don't think the pressure is the problem, I think the attachment, and what degree sprayer you are using makes the difference...Now obviously pressure affects it some, but if you use a 0 degree sprayer, you are going to remove paint, but go to a wider angle, and keep about a 16" distance from your car, and you should be ok.
180 TOOK THE PAINT RIGHT OFF LUMINA AT THE CAR WASH WICH WAS FACTORY CHEVY PAINT
