Really! I guess I’ll have to go check one out… for the stucco, it’s the darn mud dobbers, they’re out of hose reach!

CJ I got to looking at it while I was out there working a little while ago and found that there is a control switch that can regulate the water flow – Mike had it all set up for me to use and I never even looked at but started to work. With the flow regulator you can control the pressure so yes I think it would work on vehicles and RV’s

I haven’t a clue if you can use it on cars and RV’s you would want to find out about that before you do it – when I see it peeling off some of the dry wood in places I would be hesitant to use if for that – as for stucco if anything is loose anywhere the power washer will get under it and knock it off as it has done on some of the wood I think. you might want to research it.

Can you use it on vehicles? I was thinking the RV… and I wonder what it would do to stucco? I don’t have any wood to power wash, LOL

yes CJ the power washer works really well and goes pretty fast for clean up. The only problem I have had with it is the wood I am cleaning is very dry and has been a deck for about 15 years(est) so some of it is cracking a little and peeling (mainly the top railings) so have to be a little more careful there. Well need to put wood sealer on it when finished – like Thompson or whatever I find that is good. This will be a long summer project.

Karen does the power washer work well? I keep thinking I’d love to get one!

Thank you so much, Karen. I enjoy reading your blog and am grateful for all the closeup photos of your quilting that you share with the rest of us. We’re having beautiful weather here in PA — 80s with a breeze and not humid yet. Bright and sunny…50s at night.

I’m glad we do not have the deer flies but in the early morning and all evening the mosquitoes are out and I do dislike them
