My pressure washer gets a good workout every spring, Stack up the winter 
repaired and other weather beaten supers and blast off all the loose paint, 
propolis and what ever else before roller painting. Have not been to 
successful with spray painting, paint to thin to fill in some cracks and 
seams, even with a couple of coats. I wonder if paint is holding some of my 
supers together?
    Scraped down plastic frames respond well to a blasting. Have an old 
drum, poked  holes in around the bottom so it doesn't fill with water. 
Suspended a grate a foot or so down from the top to lay frames on. Drum does 
a good job at containing mot of the deflected spray. Boots and slicker add 
to the comfort level.
