What are you guys recommending for heavy oxidation and scratches in type L tubing. I also have a ton of those pesky solder drip marks around the joints (damn plumber)...........

Is this the frigging Energizer thread or what?

I also picked one up from Sears last fall based on the positive reviews here. I got a lot of use out of it last weekend and it really is great for washing the truck. It takes a little bit of getting used to - I've used trigger-style sprayers my whole life so this was a bit different. I still like my cheap multi-pattern head sprayer for other yard uses, but this is a keeper for washing the truck. One thing I like about it over the trigger-style sprayers is that when you drop it on the ground, it doesn't land on the handle and shoot water back at you or the truck.

Hey guys, great news. My UPS guy just delivered the exact same nozzle some of you paid $25.00 bucks for. I got mine from Harbor Freight for $9.95 plus free shipping. Man, what a nozzle! Might want to check them out to save some dough. I bought 2.

I am writing this post from my jail cell.

After all this nozzle talk.. I needed to have one! I drove over the US/Canadian border from my Canadian home, and went to the nearest Sears. I bought 25 nozzles and drove back over the border. I was stopped and have been charged with possessing nozzles with the intent to traffic!

Appearenly these nozzles are SO GOOD, that it is illegal to import them!! Something about the labels not being in BOTH French and English or something!

Meanwhile, my wife is driving my truck around with Bird DOO DOO all over it, and wont wash it!!!

This is a living nightmare... all because of RockPicks Freekin good hose nozzle!

I hate you all!

Sorry man! LOL!

I still love the nozzle just as much today as I did when I bought it new.

Heck, I used it today to knock out some spiderwebs on my windows on the second floor.... it puts out a great stream to hit the 'high spots' if you have decent water pressure!

I bought a “Fire Hose Nozzle” today to replace the cheap pistol grip nozzle I’ve been suffering with for way to long. It’s not quite the “Ultimate Hose Nozzle” but looks similar and works great. It has a jet spray that goes about 40’ or so and adjusts down to a gentle shower soft enough to water potted plants without knocking the dirt out. It’s solid aluminum with semi hard rubber grips. Got it at Wal-Mart for $5.00.
