Cleaning Junk Finds – Ryobi Pressure Washer

How to Clean Vintage Finds  kellyelko.com

You know I can’t drive by a pile of junk without screeching to a halt.

The dirtier, rustier and crustier the better!

But those cool finds you see in my house usually come to me looking like this – brace yourself!

How do you go from this?

to this?

My secret to turning my finds squeaky clean is my Ryobi Pressure Washer.

Just plug it in, add soap, attach one of three nozzles, turn it on, point and spray.

Layers of crud magically disappear …

and I can bring my finds inside.

So I’ll keep on lugging my cruddy finds home (sorry hubby but thanks Ryobi Outdoors!) knowing they just need a bubble bath and some lipstick to have them looking great.

 

I am happy to be a Ryobi brand ambassador because their products are amazing – I only speak the truth.

  1. Love your adorable cow pitcher, she makes a good vase. Your vignette is wonderful Kelly, Good job cleaning out your crate. Wish I Had one of those, handy for decorating and storage. Enjoy your finds.
    Happy days and enjoy the season. Really getting revved up for holiday crafting and decorating.
    I Love latches on your cupboards.

  2. Once you start spraying with your pressure washer, you find yourself searching for other items that need a good washing…trash cans, side walk/driveway, muddy rain boots. I could go on and on. A woman’s work is never done, is it?
