[Shop-talk] Pressure washer wand?

[Trevor Boicey]

I acquired a Simoniz pressure washer, probably a fairly cheap one, CL-11 
and labeled 1300psi.

I don't have the wand, it ends right at the trigger.

However, if I hook it up and run it, it sounds right. And when I pull 
the trigger, the water goes from drooling out of the end to a slight force.

Any idea how I can test it more than that before I blow half it's 
brand-new-price on a wand to try it?

I'm not actually sure if the current Simoniz wands I saw in Canadian 
Tire are right... looking at the part I have, it has an exterior thread 
and a hexagonal interior. I can't tell if this is what the $35 
wand-and-tip kit matches to.

Ideas?
