Shoutout to the guy who told me to stop using dish soap on my pressure washer
I was cleaning my deck last week and kept getting weak suds, then a contractor friend in Cincinnati saw my setup and said I was clogging the injector with regular Dawn. He showed me how to use the specific low-suds soap for my Simpson model, and the difference was like night and day... has anyone else made this simple mistake with their gear?

Dawn in a pressure washer is a total rookie move.

Ever wonder if using the wrong soap could actually damage the pump seals over time? I read somewhere that the detergents in regular dish soap can dry out the rubber parts, making them crack. That might be a bigger long-term headache than just weak cleaning power.
