Gentlemen,

Recently my pressure washer died in the lance department, it fell apart, my Daughter noticed last week that LIDL had one on offer for £80, after telling me its spec and extra's I told her to buy one for me.

I am most impressed, it has a storage drum for the hose and a clip for the gun, a low pressure gun and a rotating brush attachment, all stored in holders, 2100 psi and its got its own wheels to move it about, as usual no connection just a happy customer. Oh and it works a treat.

Pressure washers do a great job cleaning up recycled timber, the dirtier the better.
You will be amazed how the dirt and tool damaging grit is blasted away.

Yes the timber will be soaked on the outer skin at least, but the cleaning is so quick it normally dries fairly quickly.
Any nails left in will be much more visible.

There will be some gouging of the surface if you use maximum pressure, try starting at low pressure and work your way up according to the toughness of the dirt.

Regards
John
