EDIT: g system not g lock and also know as sanke.

So last night i was keg shopping and ran across some brand NEW commercial kegs with a g system for $80. I did some research and discovered that they can only be cleaned with a special keg washer. Does anybody have experience using these as a home brewer?? Could i just possible use a pressure washer then finish the clean with commercial grade sanitizer??

For that price i could rig up a keg wash to my pressure washer..
 
They are probably saying that because breweries don't remove the spear to clean them it would be to time consuming when you have a bunch of kegs to clean. You could probably just remove the spear to expose a hole big enough to clean it without a commercial keg washer.
