first off, thanks for the welcome backs.
It's good to virtualSee all my friends again

so what's the latest board de jour wonders currently running?

if you're not aware of what "board de jour" fads/wonders are, I'll list some examples from the past ;
Kunkle (sp?) vac relief valves
360, 360i, 360XL, 360E-I-E-i-Oh
then the other roto extractor from Safire took De Jour status
Judson TMs
JudsonJuice
Zipper

Boards before this one going WAY back;
Rodorie Drymaster
Recoil pordy
OP machine de jour

etc, etc, etc


Not saying anything of those things were bad, or not useful, just that the vast majority never lived up to their "larger than life" pack following hype/popularity

Only a couple/few I can recall being "genuinely" stellar

Teflon glides being one... with caveat..
That being you actually use quality prespray in sufficient quality and/or use mechanical agitation...
(cause glides don't clean as deep/well)
and if you're a soap dispensing "wand scrubber" like many outfits large and small, you'll work harder for sure without glide, but you'll get carpets cleaner/faster without one


and Bridgepoint powder Flex
That was the last juice I recall that lived up to the de jour hype


so what's all the rage these dayz?
Mikey's new love affair with 1.5" Ti wand? (or will become the "the chit" in a few months?)
Saiger Sauce?

so what's "trending" these days here?
or has the place been watered down by ad dollar butt-schmoozing and "everything is great" and there are no "clear" de jour faves anymore?

Love affair between some Mexican guy and a pig farmer.

Chavez will dryhump any leg that's stationary long enough....:redface::redface:
and them "deep south" folk move at a slower pace than us northern folk.
Easy for Chevy to catch him
'specially when he's napping....
or maybe he's "pretending" to be napping

:eekk::eekk:

not that's there's anything wrong with that....:lol:

The current rage is: Under-powered slide ins and under-sized wands.
Pretty much the complete opposite of what it was when this BB started :winky:

Mike's negotiating the return of War Monger. Stay tuned.

The latest is PEM (production enhancing music.)
Put it on when you work and you can easily add three four more jobs a day.


Try mine, it will take your business to the next level:

Shark vacuums are becoming the rage. Swivel head, easy to clean, enough power to suck start a volkswagon. And reasonably priced. Get you one.

They rate pretty well with consumer's reports. Ahead of the dysons.

But they are not professional looking to be used in a customer's home.

you're in the desert, Cowboy
an ole school RX 20 with 30 flow hooked to a single vac porty would be dry over night....

Remember when they laughed at 4.5 blowers and 6 flow wands?

This seems like a good opportunity to reflect on my board purchases from the last 10 years and my long term opinion (not that anyone asked.)

-mytee boss sprayer (POS)
-greenie wand (POS)
- bayco valve (helped on my old ass leaky cds)
- PROCHEM Ti wand (best wand ever made)
-Clean Freak 175 (POS)
- sapphire pro 1200se (best direct drive ever made)
-12 flow jetting (didn't see enough benefit so eventually went to 09, then 06)

There's probably more I'm forgetting

FOR THE RECORD, I haven't dry humped any girls since jr high...and a few of them I will only admit to if you have incriminating evidence. :biggrin:
