no matter how well you wash down the drum you cant get it all out and then you get a little more buildup after every load

I wonder if filling the drum with water and letting it sit overnight (in non-freezing climates) would help soften some of the buildup. After all, "water ruins concrete." -
Arkansas has many oppertunity here in the Ozarks to make your Mack mixer go into places most trucks cannot. And do things that have to be doing. Like assaulting a 50 degree slope sprinkled with shale rocks and stones empty. I said degree not percentage. There isnt any percentage that high in count.
Ive also run fly ash and bulk cement to many plants in my life time. It's easy work mindless as long that material is moving along out of the tanker. -

The Romans used to make concrete that worked under the ocean.

Because there is still build up if you don't wash down the fins well. Some drivers don't do a good job, sometimes you have a hot load that goes off and starts setting.

i wasn't required to go in the drum per the union contract
I seen what hammering inside the drum did to the crew we had. hands messed up from running the jack hammer, hearing damaged even when wearing protection, body messed up from climbing inside and dodging concrete chunks insideTahoeTrucker and x1Heavy Thank this.
