ProTool Cheap Shot Enclosed Drone Cleaning Trailer — 5.5 GPM Pressure Washing, P40 Soft Wash & DI Pure Water
No Frills. No Nonsense. All Business.
Not every drone cleaning operation needs a Command Port, electric hose reels, and a control system that looks like it belongs in mission control.
Sometimes you just need the equipment to get out there and start cleaning.
Meet the ProTool Cheap Shot Enclosed Drone Cleaning Trailer—our no-frills entry point into professional drone cleaning.
Don't let the name fool you.
This isn't a collection of bargain-bin pumps thrown into a trailer. It's a purpose-built ProTool cleaning system that combines a 5.5 GPM belt-driven pressure washer, a gas-powered P40 soft wash system, DI-only pure water filtration, and manual hose reels into one integrated commercial cleaning platform.
You get the equipment needed for drone pressure washing, drone soft washing, and purified water applications—without paying for the electric reels, remote controls, or onboard RO production found in our higher-tier builds.
Less automation. Fewer extras. Same commitment to building equipment that works.
It's called Cheap Shot. Not Cheap Equipment.
5.5 GPM Pressure Washing. Real Cleaning Power.
A professional drone cleaning system starts with dependable water delivery.
The Cheap Shot features a 5.5 GPM belt-driven pressure washer, providing commercial cleaning capability for compatible drone pressure washing equipment and traditional exterior cleaning applications.
The belt-drive configuration helps reduce pump operating speed compared with direct-drive systems, supporting smoother operation and extended professional use.
Pressure Washing Capabilities
-
5.5 GPM commercial pressure washer
-
Belt-driven pump system
-
Dedicated pressure washing equipment
-
Compatible drone pressure washing applications
-
Traditional pressure washing and rinsing
-
Commercial building and exterior cleaning
For contractors entering the drone cleaning market, 5.5 GPM offers a practical starting point without stepping immediately into a larger 8.5 GPM system.
Five and a half gallons per minute. Plenty of work to do.
ProTool P40 Soft Wash. No Compromises on Chemical Delivery.
Here's where Cheap Shot gets serious.
Even our entry-level drone cleaning trailer includes a ProTool P40 soft wash system.
Because professional drone soft washing deserves a proper chemical delivery pump.
The P40 provides dedicated chemical application for compatible drone systems, building façades, commercial roofs, exterior walls, and other surfaces suited to soft washing.
The pressure washer handles pressure washing. The P40 handles chemical delivery.
Two different jobs. Two purpose-built systems.
Soft Wash Advantages
-
ProTool P40 diaphragm pump
-
Dedicated chemical application
-
Supports drone soft washing
-
Supports traditional soft washing
-
Separate from the pressure washing system
-
Integrated into the trailer layout
You might be skipping the fancy controls, but you're not skipping the equipment that does the work.
Entry-level trailer. Serious soft wash pump. Damn right.
DI-Only Pure Water. Keep It Simple.
Not every contractor needs an onboard reverse osmosis system on day one.
The Cheap Shot includes DI-only water filtration, providing a straightforward way to produce purified water for cleaning applications where mineral-free rinsing matters.
Deionization resin removes dissolved ions from incoming water, helping produce low-TDS water for spot-free cleaning.
DI Filtration Benefits
-
Simple pure water filtration
-
No onboard RO system to operate
-
Supports compatible drone pure water cleaning
-
Useful for spot-free rinsing applications
-
Straightforward resin replacement and maintenance
DI-only purification can be a practical starting point for contractors with favorable incoming water quality or lower pure water production demands.
For operations consuming substantial amounts of pure water, the HydroPanel RO/DI systems available in higher-tier ProTool trailers can significantly reduce DI resin consumption.
Pure water without the extra machinery. Simple has its advantages.
Manual Hose Reels. Straightforward and Reliable.
Electric hose reels are great.
But they're not a requirement for getting the job done.
Cheap Shot uses manual hose reels to keep hose storage organized while maintaining a straightforward equipment package.
There are no electric rewind motors or additional reel controls to manage.
Just accessible hose storage and a good old-fashioned hand crank.
Manual Reel Advantages
-
Organized hose storage
-
Straightforward mechanical operation
-
No electric rewind system
-
Fewer electrical components
-
Practical hose management for professional cleaning
You'll do a little more winding at the end of the job.
You'll also have a simpler system to own and operate.
A little elbow grease never hurt anybody.
Two Cleaning Systems. Multiple Ways to Work.
Cheap Shot is designed around the core cleaning equipment needed for professional drone operations.
The pressure washing and soft washing systems work independently, giving contractors flexibility across different exterior cleaning applications.
DI filtration adds a pure water option for jobs where mineral residue and spotting matter.
Cleaning Applications
-
Drone pressure washing
-
Drone soft washing
-
Compatible drone pure water cleaning
-
Commercial building washing
-
Exterior façade cleaning
-
Traditional pressure washing
-
Traditional soft washing
-
Spot-free rinsing with appropriately supplied DI water
Whether you're entering the drone cleaning market or adding drone services to an existing exterior cleaning business, Cheap Shot provides a practical equipment foundation.
One trailer. Multiple cleaning methods. Plenty of opportunity.
Fully Enclosed. Keep Your Equipment Protected.
Your cleaning equipment is an investment.
Leaving pumps, hoses, and supporting equipment exposed to weather and road conditions isn't always ideal.
Cheap Shot is designed around a basic enclosed trailer configuration, giving contractors a protected space for their cleaning systems and supplies.
The enclosed platform helps organize equipment for transport and storage while providing access for operation and maintenance.
It doesn't have the premium trailer or exterior Command Port found on the Pure Pro Command and Flagship configurations.
That's intentional.
Cheap Shot focuses on the essential cleaning equipment instead of the premium operating features.
The equipment stays protected. The extras stay optional.
Built the ProTool Way. Even at the Entry Level.
Cheap Shot may be the most straightforward configuration in the lineup, but it's still a ProTool build.
Our approach to skid construction uses an all-aluminum welded base with a bolt-together frame, combining a durable foundation with practical access to serviceable equipment.
Pumps, plumbing, hose management, and supporting components are arranged as an integrated cleaning system—not a collection of unrelated equipment.
Complete ProTool systems undergo in-house testing before shipment.
And they're backed by ProTool's lifetime skid/system warranty, subject to applicable terms and exclusions, along with long-term technical support.
Because entry-level shouldn't mean you're on your own after the sale.
Less equipment. Same ProTool attitude.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ProTool Cheap Shot drone cleaning trailer?
Cheap Shot is ProTool's entry-level enclosed drone cleaning configuration. It combines a 5.5 GPM belt-driven pressure washer, P40 soft wash system, DI-only filtration, and manual hose reels.
Can Cheap Shot perform both drone pressure washing and soft washing?
Yes. It includes separate pressure washing and P40 soft washing systems for compatible drone cleaning applications.
