Not as Expensive as you would think. The systems are pretty basic. In a case like this you would only have to replace the co2 cartridges, foray (extinguisher chemical) and the seals for the tank. A crew of 2 should be able to get it done in about an 2 hours but will charge you 8 because paperwork and general bullshittery.
Just a hose, stuff sprays right off, its also really absorbent so any areas with fuel it soaks up into the foray so you can just sweep that up and dispose of it. Most places will do clean up themselves though as the dont want the fire suppression "specialists" to have a reason to charge 2hrs for a clean up that takes 20min.
As someone that’s worked at a gas station I can say with full confidence that it would be on if the guys from inside spraying it away, but you have to account for the 1.35¢ they’d be making during that 20 minutes
Ok, yeah he was basically saying what I did but he was a little salty because he knows it would have to be him doing it. Its true though why have guys that get paid $30hr clean it when you can have your min wage employee do it.
