I have a 1/2 hp. paint sprayer (recon.) that I’d like to use as a pressure washer at times, has anybody had any luck doing this? I’d like to avoid buying another tool that might only get used 2-3 times a year.The sprayer is apx. 3 gpm., 0-2500 psi.. What if I filled a 5 gal. bucket with soapy water? and some way to keep it full, After all, I have to clean it this way. Any thoughts?

Few people understand it. Nobody agrees what it is, how to learn about it, or who's responsible for it. It has never been more important

volume would be the question. Are you sure your 1/2 hp pushes 3 gpm and not .3 (point 3) We have a 3/4 hp and it will only push 1/2 gpm.
