Problem: Article: Pressure washers come in all sorts of different pressure ratings, While you can clean concrete with a lower-rated washer, it takes much longer. Try getting one with not just a 3,000 PSI rating, but also a flow rate of at least 4USgal (15L) of water per minute. At these settings, pressure washers are more than capable of blowing away debris without damaging concrete. Pressure washers come in electric and gas-powered models. The top electric ones max out at about 3,100 PSI, which is perfect for washing concrete. They are also quieter than gas-powered ones. The pressure washer comes with a metal rod that you hold onto to direct the spray of water. Detach it from the holster near the handlebar at the top of the pressure washer. It should have a black cable attached to it that also plugs into the side of the washer's water tank. The spray arm will have an opening on its opposite end. Pull back the metal ring on the end, then plug a spray nozzle into it. You have a couple of nozzle options when using a pressure washer. Start with a soaping nozzle or a 65-degree spray nozzle. These nozzles spread soap in a wide, gentle arc. You could also get a 5-in-1 nozzle. It's an inexpensive attachment that has different spray settings, including a soap dispenser option. Locate the nearest water spigot outside of your home. Attach the hose, then bring its opposite end to the inlet valve on the back of the pressure washer's tank. Twist the adapters on the ends of the hose clockwise to finish attaching it. Make sure these connections are tight and watch for any leaks that appear after you turn on the water. If you notice leaks, turn off the pressure washer right away and tighten the connections. Pressurized water can cut through bare skin, not just concrete. Expect potential splashback as well from pretty harsh concrete cleaners. Many washers, particularly gas-powered ones, also make a lot of noise. Wear earmuffs or earplugs to block out the noise. Put on long pants and a solid pair of shoes before using the washer. Keep other people and pets out of the area until you're finished. When you're done, put the washer away so kids can't activate it. Don't turn the washer on right away. After connecting the hose, rotate the spigot valve clockwise to start the flow of water. Then, hold the pressure washer's trigger down until you see a steady stream of water coming through it. Doing this prepares the washer for use. It enables you to get the consistent stream of pressurized water necessary for efficient cleaning. Plug the pressure washer into a nearby outlet, then hold the spray arm out in front of you. Turn on the spigot if you haven't already to start the flow of water. While pointing the spray arm away from you, flip the switch to the on position. The pressure washer will begin spraying a concentrated burst of water as soon as you press the trigger on the spray arm. Some pressure washers have a starter string similar to the kind you might see on a lawnmower. Pull the string away from the washer to start it. Be careful when activating the washer. It can surprise if you're holding the trigger down by accident. Wait to press the trigger until you're ready to use it so it doesn't cause damage. Pressure washers can be damaging if they aren't used correctly. To avoid this, start the water flow at the spigot and by turning on the pressure washer. Try spraying a concrete detergent on the area. Then, swap out the soaping nozzle for a 25-degree nozzle and rinse off the detergent. For example, try the pressure washer out on the edge of your driveway. Pick a spot on the side that people aren't likely to look at. Practice with the kind of detergent you plan on using for the entire concrete, such as a commercial degreaser. Switch to a different product if you notice discolorations. To make adjustments, you can turn off the washer and try something like a 45-degree spray nozzle. Another option is to hold the spray arm higher in the air to effectively clean concrete without damaging it.
Summary: Select a washer with a pressure rating of at least 3,000 PSI. Attach the spray arm and a soaping nozzle to the pressure washer. Connect the pressure washer to a spigot with a hose. Put on safety glasses, gloves, and hearing protection before operating the washer. Squeeze the handle for 30 seconds to let air out of the washer. Turn on the pressure washer by activating the switch near the tank. Test the pressure washer on a small, inconspicuous area.

Problem: Article: Make sure the bowl you use is heat resistant. Pour the water slowly so it doesn't splash or cause the coffee grounds to pour over the side of the bowl. Wait longer than 30 minutes if the mixture isn't completely cool by then. Make sure the coffee filter is open and positioned in the center of the strainer. Use a container with an opening big enough for a paintbrush to fit through. Set aside the container after you fill it. Work outdoors if you can to avoid a mess. If you can't work outside, lay down a tarp inside to set the wood on. Find a sandpaper that is between 180-220 grit at your local hardware store. Gently sand the wood in the direction of the grain until it's smooth. Avoid applying too much of the mixture or it may pool on the wood's surface. Once you've covered the entire surface of the wood with the mixture, let the wood dry. Let the wood dry in between each coat. Apply a finish once the last coat dries if you want to seal the wood.
Summary: Fill a bowl with one cup (237 milliliters) of dark coffee grounds. Pour 1 cup (296 milliliters) of boiling water over the coffee grounds. Let the coffee grounds sit for 30 minutes. Place a coffee filter in a mesh strainer. Hold the mesh strainer over a container and pour in the coffee mixture. Set up your workstation. Sand the wood using a fine-grade sandpaper. Use a paintbrush to brush the coffee mixture onto the wood. Apply more coats until you achieve your desired darkness.
