Nah...for self washing I take a shower like everybody else. haha. :)
It's for downstreaming with the pressure washer, but I've used it on my soft wash hose and it works great too.

Also give Guy Blackmons "original shooter tip" a try. I understand people regularly get 35 to 40 feet with that tip. I don't downstream, so have never personally tried it myself but hear great reviews.
He finally got up with me. Told him I wanted 2. Then he sent me a invoice for 65.00. I thought I read they were 15.00 each

The distance people get with nozzles depends greatly on the GPM. More GPM will get more distance.
There are many things I'd do "right" if I were to go back in time,..but the one thing I would do for sure is just get an 8 GPM machine.
That statement is pointed at A.J Pressure Washing. As soon as you can get an 8 GPM machine,.and 200' of hose on an electric reel,.. and a set of properly matched nozzles all welded together,..they call these "Bangers",..the most I think you can buy welded together is (4),..I actually have (9) on mine.

I wonder if I could just buy a 8gpm pump and switch out the 5.6gpm. That 16hp vangaurd should be enough to run it right?

It would run it,.but not at full efficiency. I know there are guys who have used 13 HP to run an 8 GPM pump,,..they don't have the pressure to run a surface cleaner but they say it makes a great house washing rig.
Is your 5.6 GPM belt driven?

Would be better than the 16,..and it would give you the 5.6 as the extra washer,.rather the 2.8 GPM you use for extra now.

Very true. But do you think the 18Hp would run the 20 inch surface cleaner

I bought one last year and thought we would really save time. We seldom use it for two reasons.

1. It will not spray as far as a 0030.
2. It sucks way more chems than changing nozzles.
