IMO either buy a $200 sams club cheapie and replace it from time to time or go whole hog and buy the real deal. consider speeders pic of his engine bay. using cold pressure (or warm pressure) you would destroy lots of rubber and have water intrusion issue to get even half that clean.
It's all about budget. I'm not sure what you mean about side work, I'm booked into February working 65+ hours a week now and can't find an assistant to save my life.

To your point, any device that saves time is money well spent. I can envision it so easily with the vapor blaster. A hot water pressure washer takes a long time to amortize I think.
