Than a CRB for scrubbing before rinsing.

Carpet brush, shampoo tank for prespray so that the solution gets scrubbed immediately. Plus, the 175 glides around so it’s like I’m not working.

Lastly, the weight of the 175 scrubs deeper.

If you disagree, you’re wrong.

You’re saying that because you’re not strong enough to lift a rotary.


you are THE dummmmest cop/ex cop I've ever known

Nothing shears soil like a rotary.
The reason some are in denial of that reality is because they're too lazy to pull a 100 pound rotary out of the truck.
so they pretend their lil peeder CRB is just as good...

..L.T.A.

Yeah I read your first post incorrectly, you’re on my team. I apologize for my dreadful conduct.

I think you misread the thread. You are agreeing with him

Brush or scrub pad?

I dumped the brush in '92.
Scrub bonnets or VCT pads

haven't tried a PHX, have you


no sir, I have not.
closest I've come to that in "reel-life" is the wheels up Conquer.
I think I tried a VCT pad with it a time or two.
If i recall*, the VCT pad didn't pan out so well because it twisted a zillion dingleberries on the pad surface

*I think that's why the VCT pad didn't work so well


BUTT...$700 for a new rotary vs $5000??
not high on my BD "need" list

Good luck finding a new quality 175 for $700 anymore.

The OP Barney Fife is referring to is just a mere 2300

Depends on what you are using it for. Did a small job this morning. $300 for 20 minutes. Bid on a 12000 sqft job today for $3600. Could have used a 175 on the small job but wouldn't want to do 12000 sqft with one.

I thought we were discussing mechanical scrub and extract.
not encRap or padding
