Default Pressure washer

Would you use one?

I just saw this commercial on tv about this "turbo washer" that mixes the soap and water together. Kind of like one of those at the hand was places with the brush and everything. But it's for your own hose.

Any consequences? Such as scratching the paint or something?

Thanks in advance!

I wouldn't consider the "Turbo Washer" a pressure washer. I would however consider it a piece of junk. It's basically just a hose attachment that mixes soap into the water stream. I got something like that at Wal-Mart for $2.

A real pressure washer that either electric or gas powered can be pretty dangerous. You can strip paint with it or force water into bad places in the engine bay. So, if you use one be careful and respectful of it.
