Can you use this parts washer with other than water based solvents??

The pump is not rated for non-water base solvents and will probably self destruct. Most solvents are aggressive on silicone and rubber so the pump will likely have a short life unless it has Viton seals which are more resistant to solvents(fuels). I'm in the process of modifying mine to use solvent by retrofitting it with a cheap Airtex marine fuel pump, a 12v transformer, a Derale Oil Filter mount and a 10gal drum with a removable top to create a safe filtered solvent system. The drum stores any solvent while the cleaner is not in use. It is much safer than a basin full of what is effectively fuel. This is particularly important to me as I do metal fabrication in my garage. The pump is not rated for non-water base solvents and will probably self destruct.

I used non-water based solvent in mine and the pump only lasted a few months. Now I need a new pump. But if you get a pump that is non-water based compatible there's no reason you couldn't use the sink portion w/ the good stuff.

You can still use it, but soap will not dispense without siphon hose going into soap bottle. Call Generac and tell them you were missing it.

I don't see why not. I would just make sure I use the hottest setting of water to activate the soap nuts and get maximum cleaning.

I would not recommend using a solvent with this particular ultrasonic cleaning device. There are other devices out there more suited for this type of task.

You can use it BUT the hose connections will be on the Back side, not the Front of the pressure washer

Yes and no. If you add this to a reservoir with another fluid already in it,it will dilute the Prestone mixture in where it wont work as intended.However this poor product dont work any better than regular blue washer fluid anyway so youll be fine.

Yes, but best to use professional cleaner unless your machine is extra large capacity and has a delicate cycle.

The instructions said to use in the washing machine. I believe you will be not get the full strength of the product by just soaking. Do not use with detergent.

Used the screw that came with the gun...so I guess the answer is no. Just looked at the gun, used the screws that were on the gun, no washer.

Tom: yes , thats the reason I purchased it. It works very well for cleaning parts. However.... It is mixed with water so it tends to evaporate alittle so the water needs to be added occasionally and metal parts cleaned should be dried off ASAP after cleaning to avoid oxidation. Hope this helped. Works good & You can adjust the dilution rate.

Havent used solvents through it but if it said u could then it should do fine. Clean it the way they say for solvents. Probably with mineral spirits or something like that, and put the blue stuff back in it before the next use and it will be fine. Use the blue stuff after every use. R. Hughes

I wouldn't put it in the washer, could tear it up or fall apart and damage the machine. I would just run it through cold or lukewarm water.

Good question but it does not say on the container. When we bought our front load washer the authorized dealer suggested we use it. Here's the web site on Glisten http://www.glistencleaners.com/Washer-Cleaner-and-Deodorizer

I believes it is better suited for other applications. My experience, a lot more volatile chems and high Pressure washer on hot day is best for that issue! No expert, just my experienced!

Yes you can, but it works better on wet. I use water and special lemon soap.

Great question, Shaun. You can use only water but it will not clean as well as using formula and water.

No. It has additional minerals that counteract the osmotic process in the unit that will lead to less efficiency, and a shortened service life for the washer ultimately leading to corrosion that will rust the unit out.
