Great idea. I was thinking about a bike tire pump but that would be better. Do you rinse out the Roundup first? 
That should prevent any “weeds” from growing anywhere near your tapper

BLC recirculated with a pump - see this post
BLC goes into a bottling bucket, steelhead pump with a keg post on the discharge allows simple connection of the beer line, tube from tap back to bucket returns the BLC. I recirc each line for several minutes, then flush out using the same setup.

I was reading your supposed to let it sit in the lines for 15 minutes contact time for a deep cleaning do you stop the recirculation?
I have seen both let it sit and keep it flowing advice. I don’t know which is right but I keep it flowing for about 15 minutes and it seems to work well. Flow rate is limited by the keg post connection so its not blasting through.

Not Steve but I have a jockey box and would not hesitate to run BLC through it. They say it is a “Liquid cleaner for draft system lines, including tubing, faucets, and valves.” What kind of cold plate does yours have? Mine has stainless tubing in aluminum I think.
Me gonna try this. Awesome idea. As well me gonna replace the beer lines soon as well. Now that. I can do some small light things again with my left hand. Due to not brewing for a while. Got to do keg cleaning. As well. Got 8 empty kegs. Been drinking. But not brewing
Do you clean the kegs as soon as they empty? I leave mine with pressure and uncleaned until im ready to fill. Occasionally I’ll clean one and have it under pressure with some star san which makes it a bit more convenient.
Sorry Max, but I don’t have a jockey box so I don’t know.
It’s a great idea… @sneezles61 's idea…I haven’t gotten around to it because I lost track of a lot of garden stuff in our 2019 move. Couldn’t find the sprayer.
Most the time wait untill i got 4 empty kegs connect the power wash. Cleaner clean them out that way. Fill 2 kegs with keg cleaner. Let it soak. Than transfet liqued to other kegs. Might be overkill. On keg day. Clean with. Pdw and starsan.
You might wanna get one that hasn’t had some other chemicals through it…

Now you have me thinking about converting a little electric power i have but never use into a keg washer. I’ll start another thread

This works perfect. Washes out all the gunk. Even do use it to clean the spear pipe. Made a sort of sakey keg adaptor. Old Coca-Cola bottle ataches to end of. Wash gun. Fits perfect over the sankey keg.
You are right .
I learned about Hudson sprayer from a friend who has a large CBD farm. It is built like a tank. I can honestly say that it is not like the blue ones that come out of china (alibaba) and are $200+. I bought this from a selling website and honestly, it is twice as powerful and much better construction. The tank is not too large that its hard to carry. The motor is double the power of most sprayers. That being said, it is overkill for indoor applications. If you are using for disinfecting or anything indoors, it just disperses too much liquid for indoor use. It sprays and will soak anything within 20 ft.
