Patio jet washers

[maccasa]

Has anyone ever used one of those circular jet washer attachments for cleaning their paviers? They just seem to be a rotating spray with a circular brush around the edge and I cant see that they would be that effective

You're right, they are only suitable for light cleaning. Anything else requires the full jet treatment. My Karcher came with this attachment, but I've only used it once. Now I use the jet, and the rotary head is consigned to the loft!

I agree...Karcher, or equivilant is the answer.

There is no equilivant to karcher they are quite simply the best no question

Glad you all agree - my unit is a karcher but with 85 m2 of patio it takes forever to clean with just the spray and I had seen the rotary attachments but wasnt impressed.

Someone suggested spraying the patio wth sardine paste and let the local stray cats lick it clean sounds a plan??

Have just cleaned my terraces in CVO. Bought some bleach with added detergent from Pingo Doce. Diluted it annd scrubbed the terraces and stairs with that and an old broom. Bit of elbow grease, but came up a treat.

Thanks Sam - I think I will spray that mixture first and then jet wash as it's drying off.

Try "Syril" - I think that's how you spell it. It's pronounced "cyril" as in "nice one"

The rotary attachment without the brush does speed things up.
