For exterior primer, go with Lowe's Valspar Exterior Primer ...... $22.48/gal .... made only in white .... for use under most all colors is good move to get it tinted medium gray by telling the Lowe's paint mixer to add two ounces of black pigment to the gallon and shake, to make it gray ..... and you will be a happy painter .... just have to wait for some good painting weather.

After doing a little research, the Hyper Tough 1800 - $145 pressure washer gets a number of bad reviews saying it feels under powered for an 1800, so probably is better to go with a Karcher pressure washer. I have a small $90 Karcher or so, which has been surprisingly good and durable and goes and goes with the winter storage lube. Karcher makes a 1900 pressure washer that looks like the real deal for about $165, if you can find one for sale on Ebay or somewhere, cause sometimes it sells for a lot more.

You know that REAL ISLANDERS do not hire painters .....they paint it themselves ...... isn't that right!
