won't be sprayed by the detergents.
Initial High Pressure Rinse
The next step is to spray the cleaning surface with water to clear off any dirt or grime that
may have collected on the surface. This will allow your detergent to attack the deep down
dirt that has worked its way into the cleaning surface. Before triggering the gun, adjust the
nozzle to a wide fan pattern and slowly adjust to the desired spray pattern. This will help you
avoid applying too much concentrated spray to the surface which could cause damage.
