Ditto.  Camspray 1500a.

Follow up?:  where do you guys find different nozzles?  We use the adjust-o-nozzle that came with but specific ones for reclaim and resolving would be cool.

Vic, check with Hydro-Quip in Baton Rouge, very very well put together units that are pricey, but are very awesome. I can get you the number to my guy there if you want.

if not too late, order a quick connect and 45degree nozzle. The adjustable one did not last very long (few months). Fixed angle seems to produce a cleaner, more consistent spray.

Ours was bought used with the adjustable and it's still bangin' it out everyday.  I just want separate nozzles so it's on lock which is used for what purpose and, so long as we keep the distance fairly consistent we can eliminate one more variable.

I bought an elcheapo from HomeDepot that I have to take back, lasted about six months.
