Hi

I’m planning a road trip and I’ll be sleeping in my vehicle along with bike so will need to keep it reasonably clean. Can any recommend me a good washer with reasonable pressure that won’t leak inside my car?

Thanks.

If you mean like the insecticide sprayer things, then I picked one up from aldi that's been fine. It has an adjustable nozzle and trigger thing, gets a decent pressure and with the help of an old washing up brush and some soap/muc-off bike comes out nice and clean. The only niggle I have with the design is it's a bit top heavy and topples over easily and the hose is too short so you have to carry it round the bike with you as you go or it falls over. It's a couple of years old now and lived in the garden for 2 years so has developed a leak when it lies down on it's side. Also probably related to the leak is it wont pump up passed a certain pressure it just gasses off via the depressurisation widget. I would tell you the pressure but I snapped the gauge off some time ago...

Cost about 8 quid I think.

I've seen them on tool station etc. Screwfix one of what I have.
