Excavator - How would you charge? - Oct 3rd, 06, 08:00 PM

Alright guys, I need some input. Degreased this excavator today. Took just under 4 hours to do.

I'm interested in how you guys would go about charging.

Thanks.

You'll be suprised to learn that I used not one ounce of hot water!!
Applied Formula 88 (it's what I had access to) right out of the bottle and then rinsed for 1300gal worth of time.
No matter what anyone says that stuff actually works.

There was no available spigot and water had to be sumped from a lake.
Oh, and my clothes didn't make it home with me. They've been stuffed into a bin at a gas station on SR-7.

FORMULA 88 ALSO WORKS ON BLACK STREAKS FOR GUTTERS, NICE WORK..DEFINITEly BY THE HOUR PLUS COSTS..FYI IF THE GUTTERS HAVE BEEN REPAINTED STREAKS ARE HARDER TO GET OFf

Sole purpose of this project was degreasing. He had a hydraulic hose burst last week and I'm sure whoever had to replace it was not a happy camper having to dig into that mess.
Now you can turn screws and hoses without the wrenches slipping.

That is a mess and looks like a tough job with cold water.
