It seems like I saw a thread on this awhile back but for the life of me I can't find it. Yes, I searched laugh
I'm thinking about getting a pressure washer to use for cleaning mud and bugs off the X but I was wondering which pressure? I don't want to ruin the paint or the plastic.
The one I was thinking about is a 2500 PSI unit from Home Depot.. too much pressure or no? The next step down from there is 1750.

I've got a cheap 1350 from Home Depot. More than enough power. No need to blast the paint off. [Smoking]

Were the 1400 and 1350's electric or gas powered? Even electric ones are 1700 psi now. I want to get one too but, I want gas.

2500 psi is way too much for using on a vehicle, but you should be able to adjust the pressure if you want to go with the big boy!
