Whiskey Stills, Chocolate Sodas ... and the Birth of an Industry: History of the Pressure Washing Industry, Part II - The Tale of Three Painters

摘要

Once upon a time, in the year 1958, there lived a young lad named Jack who made his livelihood by transforming ugly, mildew-infested homes and buildings into beautiful, freshly colored castles. Jack Simpson found that life as a painting contractor, was good, but often dirty, especially during surface preparation. And thus, he set forth on a long and tiresome journey in search of the treasure that would make his tasks easier. His travels led him to a Florida junkyard where he stumbled upon a lonely, banged-up orchard sprayer pump and a four-cylinder engine from a peanut harvester. From these desolate scraps, he waved his magical fingers to create a large, truck-mounted pressure washer.
