| Pressure Washers Direct Recommendation |
| By Pressure Washers Direct |
We like the Karcher T-Racer for a couple reasons. First, unlike most Karcher products, this one is actually compatible with other brands. It comes with a universal adapter to hook to most gas-powered pressure washers.
Secondly, it's designed for consumer gas-powered pressure washers. It's durable, yet affordable. Sure, it's not nearly as tough as a prosumer- or professional-grade pressure washer, but it's also a whole lot cheaper.
Most prosumer surface cleaners cost more than your entire pressure washer. If you just want something to use a few times a year, get this Karcher T-Racer.
If you have an electric power washer, you'll need to get a small version. We recommend the Campbell Hausfeld Deck-n-Drive because we secured a bunch at close out prices. It works the same, but just isn't designed to withstand the pressure produced by a gas pressure washer. |

| Saved me a day of labor cleaning my driveway & patio |
| By Dennis Eschbach (Red Bank, NJ) |
I've got to give you guys at Pressure Washers Direct.com a lot of credit. I was looking for something to make my power washing job a lot easier.
I needed a surface cleaner, and I found the Karcher T-350. What really sold me were the 5-star ratings from users who said that it was a great piece of equipment.
I bought it- this unit saved me easily a day of labor on my concrete driveway and patio power washing job. Thanks to you guys who took the time to give the reviews.
This is a great piece of equipment for the money!!!! Buy it. |

| Wished I had found this attachment years ago! |
| By Tim V. (Orange Park, FL) |
I was a skeptic when I placed this order, but thought I could return it, if it didn't meet my expectations.
Well . . . it has completely exceeded my expectations.
It cleaned my pool deck in a fraction of the time and without any of the backache I used to experience.
I used to dread that job and would always procrastinate. This is going to make it simple and fast to keep up with the dirt.
The cleaner connected easily (via the adapter included) to my TroyBilt power washer.
You won't be disappointed! |

| OUTSTANDING!! |
| By J. W. (Conroe, TX) |
I have a Craftsman 1750PSI and this adapted easily to the nozzle.
I cleaned a large pool pea gravel deck and a 90 foot driveway in a fraction of the time. Saved time = less gas.
Also due to the design, put less strain on my back as opposed to the fan nozzle method of cleaning the driveway and deck.
Highly recommended! |

| Best ever! |
| By warren weikand (Buckley, WA) |
I just got done doing a very big deck and my driveway and I cannot believe how good this works!
If you had any doubt about purchasing this, don't- it's great.
A 5 star rating is not enough. This saved me so much time I cannot believe it. |

| I finally bought something that really works! |
| By Donny Strickland (Whiteville, NC) |
This accessory is the real deal. I was really surprised by how the T350 cut the dirt and grime off my driveway and sidewalk.
It took one day instead of 2 days with a nozzle. It is so easy, you can use only one hand to guide it up and back and side to side.
I finally bought something that really works. |

| Fantastic Accessory |
| By John Baldwin (Elkview, WV) |
I just finished cleaning my deck for the first time using this power washer accessory and was very pleased with the performance.
Not only was the deck cleaned uniformily (no zebra striping that is common when cleaning with just a nozzle) but the savings in time was substantial.
Additionally, the unit allows you to stand more erect versus bending over when cleaning with just a nozzle which really saved my back.
I highly recommend purchasing it. |

| This thing is amazing |
| By edward eno (Aiken, SC) |
I purchased the T350 surface cleaner to do my driveway, sidewalk,and concete patio. it took me about 15% of the time I used to spend using just a spray nozzle, and it was powerful enough to cut through the mildew and dirt without leaving any streaks.
I also did my TREX Decking by simply turning down the preasure on the unit. It cleaned the TREX just fine without using any deck cleaner so I saved a bunch of time there as well.
Although it says it can be used on vertical surfaces, I found it to be hard to control on the vertical. But who cares-it worked so well on horizontal surfaces that I did not mind using the spray nozzle for the vertical ones. |

| How To Pick the Perfect Surface Cleaner |
| By Jon Hoch, Founder (Bolingbrook, IL) |
Are you tired of seeing uneven "zebra stripes" left by your pressure washer on the garage floor or patio?
Surface cleaners are the answer. Small nozzles on a spinning arm produce a smooth, even cleaning path.
Choosing the right one is easy! Just click on the style that matches your pressure washer.
Consumer Electric pressure washers use bayonet connectors that twist and click to lock together.
Most Consumer Gas units can use the M22 connector on the Karcher T350. If your spray gun uses quick connectors then adding a high pressure quick connector adapter kit will do the trick.
The Prosumer models make either a terrific Consumer investment or an entry level Professional choice.
Professional surface cleaners are built to take daily use by either gas or electric commercial pressure washers.
Most are rated up to 4000psi and can accept hot water. They are engineered for light weight and portability.
The right Surface Cleaner will save you time, water, and effort. They produce a nice uniform finish without soaking your clothes or your wallet. |

| A must buy |
| By Foster White Jr (Opelika, AL) |
I am so very glad I bought this piece of equipment! It has cut my work time almost in half.
I washed a 100', very dirty driveway in about 1 1/2 hours. If you do not have this accessory, get one now and you will see your work time lessen.
One great thing I discovered while doing this driveway was that I could let a small portion of the T350 hang over the edge of the drive way and it acted like an edger. The grass that was coming over the edge of the driveway was cut away and a very small trench was cut right next to the drive way.
This one tool did the work of two and all at the same time. I am very hard to impress; but I am impressed. |

| How to Restore Your Clean Garage Floor |
| By Jon Hoch, Founder (Bolingbrook, IL) |
Hold on, partner! Don't saddle up your pressure washer and ride off into the sunset just yet.
Every spring, homeowners stake their claim to a clean garage floor. However, a summer-long onslaught of spider webs, oil stains and dried leaves can turn any little house on the prairie into a bug-infested bonanza.
The fall is a great time to declare a high-noon gunfight in your garage.
Take a good look at the vile filth on your floor. If you don't wash it away now, you will be living with it until spring.
You don't need any "stinkin' badges" to win this shoot out. But, some good advice always helps.
A Western With a Warning
Sure, safety tips aren't very macho, but they can save you from a premature trip to Boot Hill.
Be extremely careful using a gas-powered pressure washer near a garage. They emit odorless and deadly carbon monoxide gas. Make sure you always place the pressure washer outside of the garage in a well ventilated area.
The Magic Elixer
After you've moved your stuff off the floor, your natural reaction may be to start sweeping it with a broom. Don't! You can skip this step if you manage things correctly.
Spray the floor with either a heavy-duty degreaser or a concrete cleaner first. By applying the soap and water combination under low pressure, you'll prevent the dust from flying into the air when rinsing under high pressure.
Wet Sweep
Don't be in a hurry to rinse. Give the solution time to work. You can sweep the larger particles outside by simply attaching a floor brush to your pressure washer wand. In addition to removing the bigger particles, the foaming bristles also work the detergent into the deeper stains.
Fire Away
Now comes the fun part. Switch to high pressure and start spraying. Start from the back of the garage and gradually push the dirty water outside.
You don't have to flood your garage to get it clean. Pressure washers use 80% less water than a garden hose. The high pressure will force the majority of the water outside.
Finishing Touches
If you want to keep the water from splashing on your drywall, consider getting Karcher's surface cleaner. The revolutionary product uses water pressure to actually hover over your garage floor, giving it a uniform shine.
If you want your floor to be squeaky clean, Use a squeegee to remove the remaining water. |
