Be warned, last time I saw this video, I think I heard something about this being illegal because if you don't know what you're doing, you can mess up the reflectors or something.
Sounds about right. No good deed goes unpunished and all that. Pretty sure that’s just the egos of the authorities being hurt by someone doing their job for them.
My view is that if the authority in charge of maintaining the signs was so invested in maintaining its reflective qualities, they’d also be invested in cleaning it once in a while.
I’m sure warm water, or just a very mild detergent mixed in can’t do much harm. And if I don’t video it and post it online, they’d have to go out of their way to find me. 😉
Its a tuckerpole, its basically an extendable carbon fiber infused hollow extension pole. So its strong, durable, and has a hose in the middle that feeds continous water through it near the brush head. Works great as you can tell.
might sound silly but do you need to get permission from the council to clean the road signs or can anyone just take a sponge & a bucket of hot water around to clean signs that have gotten grubby? do the signs need to be cleaned carefully with only certain products or as long as its a soft sponge/brush and simple detergent you're safe to have a go
They wouldn't authorise it, but they aren't exactly going to spend resources stopping you either. There does exist a scenario where someone screws up the clean so bad it makes the lettering worse, but extremely unlikely.
There are some speed limit signs near me that were graffiti’d, the council came to clean them but partially destroyed the reflective coating in the process, they’re mostly unreadable at night now. So yeah I can see why they aren’t keen on random people messing with their signs.
Nice work, managed to find it on google earth, must have been between Aug 2022 and Aug 2024, looking back at the history, it hadn't been cleaned since 2017.
So I see you're using a dionizer pole and brush head, but I have never seen one go through that much grim so quickly. Also I have never used those fan spray tips on the brush, I always go for the straight jets. So question is, are you actually hooked up to a dionizer, or is there something else back there moving the water a lot faster than usual? Window washer of 10+ years, do a fair bit of commercial with the di system.
My county has its road crew clean the road signs. Problem is, they only do it every once in a while, so there’s hundreds of them that get to the point where you can barely read them before they get cleaned. I’ve thought about doing this myself but unfortunately I don’t have a wfp system. It’s is so satisfying seeing them brighten up like this.
Somebody tell me where to find that exact brush with the soap that comes out of it
Me too, please. I’d gladly keep that kit in the boot of my car. There are so many grubby signs around where I live. I’d have an absolute field day!
Then you can make videos about you helping your sign community, and I will always watch your videos always!
Yay! Hopefully they remember to do the back of the sign too!!

Thank you, very helpful
My back is gunna love that…
You sonovabitch thanks now I have to go back to one day after 4 months 😅 🤪
Perfect! Thank you! I can’t believe how comprehensive the list is and how affordable it all is!
🤣🤣🤣 I love you
That's it! Thank you so much! Very affordable!
Yes! That’s it!!
I've seen that kit so many times and had no Idea it was for this!

You mean the rubbing kind ?
thats the most british sign ive ever seen
I used to live there, I've moved to a much less interesting area.

I don't think they would prosecute you, but they clearly don't like it.

Slap that NSFW tag on there please and thank you.
There's a retired boomer in Germany who did this. He cleaned dirty street signs in his free time, because no-one else did.
The authorities then of course asked him to stop, because it's an illegal treatment of public goods. Not sure if he didn't even get a fine.
ofc it's Germany...
That's wet.
Now the legs
Didn't know that Harry became a bar owner. Turns out wizarding life isn't all that great.
Having an arch nemesis was job security. When he dies, you’ve gotta find something else to make ends meet…
It's the site of a Roman pottery settlement.
I am aware that the former bar of potters is not literally a pub that Harry Potter made.
I want that job. I would do it for free.
ya know, it wouldn't get so dirty if it wasn't left outside all the time.
If you're dirty, they're dirty. Bring them inside.
I oddly feel so much better now 😊
Agreed. I’m sick and not an exaggeration, I found it so relaxing I almost fell asleep.
Ooooo this is a good one
Sorry Dave
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one that saw that lol

I need that tool!!
It's satisfying af, but why does it get reposted multiple times within a year?
The same reason other porn subs have the same reposts week by week.
It’s just that good.
The reposts you refer to, also feature copious amounts of spraying warm fluids. Can't be a coincidence.
Name one! I dare you!
Definitely! 🤩
That was indeed very satisfying.
I just KNOW someone saw that sign later and went "DAMN"
Got me to join. Nice
A clean sign with a massive tree blocking it.
I could do this job!! ❤️❤️
I discovered a new sub today
My blood pressure instantly went down. 😅
I wish i could just do this to the inside of our houses lol it would make cleaning day soooo much easier 😂😂😂
CRLF... Like watching a power-washing typewriter.
I want this job
Do they not sell bidirectional brushes or was the only option the kind that cleans from left to right?

Where do I apply for this job
How do I get this job?

Poor Dave
Achoo!
What is this glorious device!?
Would something like this be safe to use on my house?
Yeah, that was pretty disgusting..like a bad toilet..
This job must be so satisfying! I would love to do this!
Wow, I could literally watch that for hours
This is so healing to watch
Thanks for that.
Aaaaand I'm spent
🚬
Very satisfying!
Wash that from Flawless on YouTube? He’s fantastic.

Interesting that they went typewriter. I would have gone zigzag.
Nice edge control there.
Don't get the idea to do this in Germany.
You will be fined.
Someone cleaned a sign and pretty much had to buy a new one. I try to find the video but it will be german
Well for once there's not a kid under all that dirt.
The graphics of Power Wash Simulator 2 are a lot better than I thought they would be!
Wouldn't it be faster to wash it with a pressure washer?
r/mildlysatisfying
Beautifully done
when I retire I want to do this for free
Can I do this for a living? Please?
Barbarian didn’t even wet the surface first?!
I just bust
As a resident of this area, I salute you sir...
I hate that this guy attacked it like a typewriter instead of just alternating right to left
