Whats the best solution for our karcher washer?

gabyjane

Have searched old threads but nothing has come up, just questions on which to buy.

Just wondered what you used in your Karchers and where you get it from?

Thanks for any replies x

shameless bump, I want one too

A bump after three minutes? What's that about then?

I'm after a power washer too but not bothered what brand as long as it is efficient.

Are Karchers better or worse than others?

I want mine to be able to powerwash external rendered walls, any recommendations?

Cheers

hi we already have ours it was a Q as to what cleaning stuff to use with it? i always thought they were very good and know a few ppl who have them. Haven't used it yet though so not sure!

I've had one for several years now and have never found the need to use anything but water.

We were given ours with a bottle of Karcher solution but we've never used the solution - water is normally fine. I guess if you were going to use it to actually shampoo the car as opposed to jet washing it you might want some detergent but I'd use the jet wash to get the crud off and then hand shampoo it.

Thanks that what i said to dh that we wouldnt need soap but he thinks so...think he just likes wasting money tbh!

I bought one at xmas from Robert Dyas and it came with a free bag of detergent. Have just used it with water so far though and it has cleaned my rather grubby looking patio very well. I shall save my bag of detergent (which had an rrp of £7.99 if I remember correctly) for something really, really dirty!

I have just cleaned my patio using my Karcher and a drop of "Triplewax Patio Cleaner"

Came up a treat.... and Focus currently have the cleaning solution on bogof at £5.99.
