Default Water sprayer

On 8/19/2009 2:13 PM Stormin Mormon spake thus:

Need something, one or two galons. That I can pump up and
rinse dust out of equipment. Compressed air doesn't clean
well enough. Gotta be water. The garden sprayers from the
store are the right idea. But, the new ones with the plastic
wand just don't have the flow.

Years ago, I used a kiddy toy fire extinguisher, and that
worked reasonably well. But, it's only about 20 ounces, and
only lasts for one quick squirt.

Best I've found have been the Roundup sprayers, with the
brass wand and pump top. A pressurized water fire
extinguisher would do a nice job, but would look a bit
strange.


I'm using my Ortho "Yard Plus" lawn & garden sprayer to clean and seal a
deck. All plastic except for brass wand. Has a pump top that develops
decent pressure. Works pretty well.
