Park/Idle your car over your neighbors sprinkler head
hahaha, no not seriously.....though that could work
As long as they are not using stinky, hard, mineral-y well water......eeeek!
But no, really, I just did this today
I was down in the garden department looking at all their gadgets they had.....they had this angled handle trigger hose attachment, I guess for watering plants, that "could" work...but I was thinking to myself.....I wouldn't know exactly WHAT I am hitting
Then I was thinking well maybe one of those 6-12" long rotating "fan sprinklers" would work....that rotate left to right.....? But then was like.....mmmmm.....maybe not enough power there......
Then I found this round gadget, you screw the hose into, and a huge jet of water comes flying out of the top of the sprinkler! Soooo.....I attached that doo-hickey to my house, laid the sprinkler out in the yard, and slllloowlly...drove my car up into the yard, to bask in this sprinker soak...
NOW....my reason for posting here though....Is I was thinking how cool would it be, if there was a sort of "solution mixer" that I could plug into my hose.....to pre-mix/dillute, say Purple Power, or Super Clean, as the sprinkler sprays it...?
I know I've seen the car wash brushes at walmart that have the "soap dispensing" feature.....sorta the same concept, only for the SPRINKLER....
Any McGuyver's here that would know how to make one myself?
Basically, something that goes between the hose, and the sprinkler head, that would hold solution, be it car wash concentrate, purple power, simple green.....and it would basically allow the Water and cleaner to mix, and come out at once....
Cause yea, it basically just hosed it down with plain water....as I don't have ramps.....that would have been my other idea, ride the car onto ramps, and just hose the undercarriage down with the hose...but I'm hoping that did "good enough"
I did ride back and forth, forward and backwards, to make sure it got completely wet
