Is there a tool one can get to attach to outdoor hose to use cleaning solution in,that is pressure like, rather than having to buy a pressure washer?

I saw a water broom somewhere, but did not see it on the Q's website.

You attach the hose to a broom to clean outdoor surfaces. Maybe it was on HSN? I will try to find it.

Yes. It's called a man. Properly instructed, they're amazing.

Sometimes you just have to hire one. The downside is you have to pay them. The upside is they usually get the job done and then leave, so you don't have to feign rapt attention while they tell you over and over again the story of how they slayed the Mighty Mildew and Moss Monsters barehanded.

DH has used the Windex Outdoor Cleaner on our windows & it did a good job. Have not used it in a long time since we now have tilt in windows which are easier to clean.

Windex Outdoor Glass and Patio Concentrated Cleaner connects to your garden hose to help you clean quickly and effectively. Simply attach the specially designed spray bottle to your hose, rinse, and you can clean windows, outdoor glass, and patio furniture without leaving behind dull residue. This cleaner is ideal for decks, play sets, brick, siding, and outdoor glass surfaces*.

*Not recommended for synthetic decks. Avoid newly sealed asphalt.

I call it a power washer. Invest in a power washer. You won't be sorry. There are so many reasons to use one especially cleaning outdoor furniture, pavement, rocks, brick, siding, etc..... We bought a heavy duty power washer years ago from Costco and its, by far, the best investment we've made.

In my experience nothing will cut like a pressure washer. I suppose it depends on the depth and level of your dirt/mold/mildew to be removed, but I've never found anything to attach to a hose that was powerful enough.

I prefer to clean outside without chemicasl as we have plants and pets, so it's either power wash or hand wash and sometimes I have to do both, for as nice as power washers are, they don't remove everything from things like gutters and siding and a hand scrubbing along with it is necessary to meet my level of clean!

Thanks for reminding me about this stuff. Used it in the past and was happy with the results. Time to buy some more!

Nothing else produces pressure like a pressure washer. If you don't want to buy one, they can be rented. Other devices produce about as much pressure as a nozzle.

I've reused this bottle many times. I put straight ammonia in it and no it does not harm outdoor greenery...in fact, they like it.

@goldensrbest @SilleeMee @shoesnbags When we used the Windex it did a good job on the windows. We have a brick home so don't know how well it works on siding. We also don't have mold or mildew on our house so I don't know how it works on that.

It will clean your windows & remove dirt.

Pressure washer, nothing beats it. And, I like using it.
