using Holdtight

I have some fiberglass parts soda blasted and will blow them off with compressed air, then wash with water and holdtight. For anyone that has used Holdtight, how did you apply it into the water stream when pressure washing? Instructions say to use it at about a 100:1 ratio.
 
Ok, well I mixed holdtight in a 55 gallon drum 100:1, raised the drum on a forklift to create some head pressure in the supply hose, hooked that up to a pressure washer and washed down the body and parts. Worked great. I could do a hole car with about 30 gallons.
Fortunately I can skip this step in the future since my media blasting guy can remove paint off fiberglass and leave just as smooth as soda buy using fine crushed glass. I thought it would be too harsh, but he proved me wrong.

No I have a tractor with a front end loader that I use for most things a forklift would do. Haven’t been able to convince my business manager/wife that I need a forklift… :)
