    Anybody know a good chemical that will help cut up blocked plastic slats before they are power washed? I know I could scrape them but think power washing is easier..

    If they are plastic calf slats I just leave them out in the rain for a few days before washing, no bother then

    Soak a few times first to soften it

    The mud lance on powerwasher with the cone spray pattern in very effective too rather than standard lance

    When emptying pen try and take the time to flood wash it before it drys and cakes on. Slurry tanker of water with a hose very effective and quick. Saves alot of time but spring is busy in fairness.

    Does Sodium Choride work?

    Will that kenosan spray or others impact quality of slurry when spreading, that detergent washed into tanks can't be good for grass? Anyone know.
