The white trailer
Hot water washes it. A Rain Coat keeps it clean.
Power washing has its own machine: a custom mobile unit that washes siding, sheds, fences, decks, driveways and sidewalks with hot water and a house cleaner that kills, cleans and inhibits mold and mildew. Then a Rain Coat goes on so water beads up and runs off.
