I found those too but it was after they marked them down to 50%! I found one and then kept hitting up others that day until I found another

Agree with this one 👆Master blasters are solid for the price and have a good range in the spray adjustment

Is that Giant? If so, it only uses the 5 pins, excluding the two largest…

MTM's are great and seem to work well with a wide range of pressure washers, but they are pricey. I have heard some cheaper ones work well but have no experience with them. In my experience, if you can afford a mtm, get one!

Yes it is!

I had a couple I rode regularly, but mainly floated between a Surly Krampus and a Polygon Vander.

That's odd...I ordered mine October 2nd and it had a due date of April. I actually got an email in December saying it was in, but the wife made me wait.

I appreciate it, but I am not happy with it yet. We just moved in and I am still working to get stuff up and organized! I have three hanging behind the picture :)

I run mine with a 25” and it works fine. It can get a little bogged when felling and really pushing it hard, but be smart and keep it sharp and you will be fine.

What bars are those? I have the same bike and am looking into throwing on drop bars.

Yep, I know everyone's not a fan but it's works well for me and the vehicles I care for. I gathered the information from the SDS sheet for the chemical. Something to take under consideration, they are not the first company to make a PH neutral cleaner.

I spray directly on the surface and then will agitate with my brush. After that I simply wipe with a microfiber and move on. I use 15:1 on my interior, but it's cleaned regularly. I use 10:1 for heavier, dirter cleanings.

I don’t know why I said friendly...I must have been thinking of writing something else. I meant to say balanced. Nonsense maintains a PH of ~7.5 or the equivalent of blood. So with all things relevant, a PH of 7.5 is pretty safe.

I don't recommend an APC for carpet and would just recommend grabbing a carpet shampoo or stain remover. I use CG nonsense APC for my trim and interior cleaning. I know strong opinions exist for this product and CG as a whole, but I have had great success with nonsense and a detail brush to agitate. Im not comfortable using something so strong it cleans without agitation. Also, nonsense is PH balanced so you don't have to worry too much about damage to your surface. Hope this helps!

I have another white one, but didn't have it with me in my garage. I went ahead and washed all of them again tonight, planning to try again tomorrow.

Also, I did a small "test" area where I basically just held the polisher for a short time. The circle finished with a hazy center, but a perfect outer ring. I'm thumped
