Controversial Pressure Washing Chemical (Do You Really Need It?)
Hey everyone, it's Justin from Forever Self-Employed, and in today's video, we're diving into a contentious topic in the pressure washing world: plant protect chemicals. Are they really essential, or are they just another unnecessary expense? Let's find out.
If you're new to the pressure washing business, this video is for you. We'll be shedding light on what plant protect chemicals are, when they're needed, and when they're not. Join Coty as he walks us through the ins and outs of this controversial chemical and provides valuable insights to help you make informed decisions for your business.
Understanding Plant Protect Chemicals
Plant protect chemicals are designed to safeguard vegetation during pressure washing jobs. While some chemical companies may tout them as indispensable, the truth is that they're not always necessary. In many cases, water alone is sufficient to protect plants, as long as they're kept adequately wet during the cleaning process.
Dispelling the Myth
Coty cuts through the noise and gets straight to the point: plant protect chemicals aren't a one-size-fits-all solution. While it's prudent to have them on hand, especially for delicate plants like Japanese maples or hydrangeas, they're not a mandatory addition to every job. Dilution, Coty emphasizes, is often the key to plant protection, rather than relying solely on specialized chemicals.
Making Informed Decisions
Justin stresses the importance of being informed and not blindly following recommendations from chemical companies. By understanding when plant protect chemicals are truly necessary, pressure washing professionals can save money and avoid unnecessary expenses.
