Richard may be old-ish, but rumor has it they never used diapers on him.

Which, coming to think about it, may mightily explain a lot :winky:

I'm waiting on my Conway wand.

Then I'll have every tool I need.


Everyday Mark calls me to tell me how much time and energy he is saving with the Swivel.

"Did you know I can stand way over there and clean over...."

Yes Mark I know.


It the dawning of the age of Swivlequarius..

I need a whole month to get YOU out of my system.


I begged Fred to let me raft you for the duration.

You were saved by that fact the he believes you two are long lost cousins.

I argued that everyone in the south are, he pointed out that you two are two of five that aint all buggy eyed, so maybe he's correct.
:lol:

so WRONG.


You know how I know?


Because I'm not speculating like you are Ron.

I have every tool you do..


AND A ROTARY EXTRACTOR.

(three actually.)
Mike, I was using a rotary extractor in the early 1980's, your a little late to the event, don't you think?

I went and did a job for a lady before I pre vacuumed, she had lots of pets.

I cleaned the hell out if it with a quad wand and a 405.

She was renting, well the owner called me I know him but didn't know it was his rental at the time.

It still smelled like piss and need some extra cleaning after she completely moved out.

I went back over it with an Rx20 and my filter box was full of sand and dirt.

That house could've used 5-6 hour @Ron Werner action.

Still I was surprised at how much crap was still in the carpet.

mostly what's in the filter is lint from the aggressive agitation.
Simply not true.

Heavy sand and grit, and hair. On most carpet, you couldn't tell the color of the carpet by looking at the Devastator. Hardly any carpet fibers at all.

There has been a few jobs where I DID feel like I pulled a lot of loose carpet fiber. Just a handful out of many hundreds though. In those cases, the carpet looked great in the home.

I use an old plexiglass pump out when I do large jobs. I will be doing a job tomorrow for about 3 hours. Just commercial over pad in a strata condo bldg. If I have time, I will take a pic of all the sludge in the pump out. Sometimes, it's enough to completely block the vertical screen. No doubt, a rotary extractor removes more soil, but a lot of the pics I have seen on MB have been of lint.
