Thanks for the video Mike. Your right mike it is the small things that count. When the the edges are dirty I will go in there with a small brush. One lady never saw that before.

Pita Crevice wand along basboards and hinge side of door corners right after I use my hydroforce then run out turn up the truck and wand it out. Crevice wand used to pull carpet off the tack till I figured it out. If they made a glide for a pmf crevice wand I'd buy one in a second.

The yellow home depot type grout brushes work well for pre-edging.

On the phone with PMF now..

They are going to make "us" a custom version with that glide (replaceable and made from Acetyl) specifically angled just for carpet/baseboard edging. As it is it's set up for Grout work.
It will also have the better V800 trigger


Olson will have them for sale once I've fine tuned it.

Nice job on the edge toweling, Mikey. That's also a great technique for finishing stair treads.

I used to do that when I was on the truck and teach my guys to do it also...it's the first thing they stop doing when they go out on their own without me.LOL

I've owned both edge tools. I prefer this one. It works well. It sounds like a jet engine when hook it up though.

It's hard to get your wand at that angle in a hall or bathroom. man Mike, that's some white carpet.
