Steam auto washing

What's your psi?

I don't know. I don't think they rate them by psi. It's volume of steam that's important once you get to a certain level.

I bought it here off AG. Go to the Dupray website. They probably have specs listed.

But, i'm telling you, you can't wash auto exteriors with it (or any of them in the same class). Go on YouTube and search around. There used to be videos of a couple places that offered it as a service. Your looking at a commercial unit and when I said $5000+, that was an entry point. I remember guys saying 8-10K for a popular unit.

The one you have is 121 psi max. I looked at the same one for a little bit. But decided against it. Psi and recovery time is all I’ve seen them rated at. The one he is looking at will cover what he is wanting it for.

Somewhere on this forum I typed out a fairly in-depth answer to this question. I’m in Charlotte working with Ray Evernham all day, don’t have a lot of forum time.

If someone can find the reply and share it in this thread I’ll send them something cool.

I just scanned through my review and did not see my comments about washing a car with a steamer.

Wherever my comment on this topic is - it’s very straightforward.

Is it post number #3 in this thread?


Question? Washing a car with a Steam Machine?

^^ Not sure if this is right or not but...Oh and by the way

Im Steve from MA.

Found Autogeek about a year ago. Long story short my trucks paint was trashed, and after learning how much it would cost to pay someone to detail thought to myself, "I wonder if I can do it". Found this site, read a million articles, now my truck looks great. Thanks for all the help

Yeah, and I doubt if the commercial ones have much higher of a psi. What you need to look at is the flow rate of steam.

I don't know which one he is looking at or what specifically his intentions are because he didn't state such (maybe you guys pm'ed each other ?). But, I'm going to stick by my evaluation that anyone trying to use a $2000 steamer to clean auto exteriors in a business setting is going to be greatly disappointed.

The pressure washer parts distributor I buy from has a steam machine that they sell. Apparently it’s capable of cleaning the exterior of the car. I believe it’s around 8,000.00
