Title: Anyone ever?
Post by: rexster on November 01, 2014, 03:55:59 PM
Pressure wash the inside of your Bradley? I've honestly got so much crud build up I'm thinking of pressure washing the interior. It's a digital so I would take off the smoke generator and would let it completely air dry before turning it on. I've got the two element mod and would wrap the elements in towels to keep the direct spray off them.

I would think the insulation would get soaked and take forever to dry out.

In a word,Don't! The high pressure will drive water into all the little cracks and crevices where it should never go.Think mushrooms and mould..

I wouldn't power wash it.  Take some foil, wad it up into a ball and knock the crud build up off the walls and bottom and vac that residue out of it.

I agree. Don't wash that thing. Just crumpled newspaper or tinfoil. Give a good rub down and your done.

If the build up is greasy and/or thick, run it empty and hot for awhile. Then use crumbled newspaper or a stiff brush to remove any loose debris that is on the  walls.
