Title: Karcher K2
Post by: Mr Savage on March 21, 2013, 06:42:29 pm

I'm here to pester all you detailers for your opinions again. After finally getting an outside tap fitted I can now become serious with my detailing. Starting of course at the beginning with the good old pressure washer. Do any of you guys use this one?

Isit any good? Also what do I need with this to snow foam? Just a lance and some foam? Like this?

Hope you guys can help, which i'm sure you can.

Cheers,
Ryan.

Got one of these, recommended to me by Monte (Carlo) on here. Tis from the Karcher Outlet. Loads of K2's to choose from, from around £30 inc P+P.....

Wow, they are cheap! Never even thought of that! Is their a huge difference between the K2 variants? Any to avoid?

Cheers mate,

Take a look at the Nilfisk range. Used them for a number of years and they have been very good. They have a good reputation over on DetailingWorld
