I wonder if I drill a couple small holes in my overpriced pmf tile wand, would it help??

The relief holes are key.
Being able to easily plug em for long hose runs, uneven floors or porty use is nifty
$6 for a set of 25 on Amazon

BTW Just got a new flat face glide in from you for the chosen wand. Superb quality. I don't want to knock any others vendors as I like alot of stuff from other vendors but as far as glides....nothing else is close. I swear I won't cheap out again and you got me hooked.

Now those plugs on the other hand :) .

Call me ignorant, but isn’t it a brush head? If so, I’d ASSume it’d leak air thru it.. Does it lock down?

The average cleaner will not have or keep track of those little plugs, let alone plug it.. I’d look at a tethering option or something.. I doubt magnets would work..

You're ignorant.




The brush is very dense and doesn't leak, much, air, or collapse like some do.


I'll send you a fanny pack for your plugs if you buy a wand.



Having the relief holes makes the wand just glide along so nicely..

Drill baby drill!! You won’t know until you try.. Annnnd what works for you may not work for someone else, vice versa..!
Right now that POS pmf junk wand is just sitting in my shed, so I'll try it and if it doesn't work, I'll probably just take it to the scrap metal yard with my other junk wands or, out of anger, I might just send it back to pmf telling them how much they ripped me off with it

Really? Did you try that on one of those wands with negative results?


we tested your PMF HS wand at Chip Fest and tried making it work..



Between the manifolds being in the vacuum champer causing all sorts of confused air and the "huge" gaps between the bristles, it's a turd of a perfomer.

My unbiased (and experienced) opinion is the necessity of those holes can’t be truly understood unless you own one of Mikes highly shilled tile wands and you use it coupled to a big blower. My 47 at 50 ft. doesn’t make me want to get my drill out.

even on my wimp mount it's a nice improvment.



But you're the same guy who won't notch his $@**&% swivel wand.

Had a change to use the hard surface wand for a job that was too tight for the normal th40. All I was thinking the whole time was....damn needs that vacuum relief hole like you posted :). I will put it in this weekend, lol.

1/4" or 3/8" ?

EDIT: Forgot I saw you made a video on it but I don't believe you had a size recommendation. Also, shame on you for using an impact for a drill Mr Use The Right Tool For The Job
