Save me a spot on that dirty carpet. I'll show you what an unglided high flow wand can do. And maybe get me a spot on ******' list.

Ron, with the piece I've found, an OP or grooming brush and wand would only make a dent
That depends on the chemistry used. Or is that another criteria for the test, no chem?

Ronald, I'd hate to see you have an anxiety attack or go into convulsions
So if it'll help, I'll let you vac til your heart's content it if you want......



of coarse we're going to use chems.
I'm going to use just exactly what the Little Genies use to restore a salvage rag.
Nuke juice , roto scrub and flush/rinse extract with a quality emulsifier
The only thing different will be I might not have the same amount of fire breathing heat there, that our system can muster with high flow.
That's al'ite though, cause i can deal with that

and Brother, I don't believe there's enough pads in a box truck or enough encRap pixie dust juice in an ocean that will make this rag "look" as good as a roto scrub and flush/rinse extract (and almost surely the 360i too, knowing that I know Mike's no dummy)

we cleaned a white carpet that had soot from candles so heavy you couldn't see the carpet. the wand didn't even dent it. we scrubbed the first room with the 175 and then wanded it. it came out good but took 45 minutes for a 10 x 12 room. we used the rotovac with scrubbing and cut the time and raised the quality noticeable. i took before pictures but forgot the after. :oops: we were both amazed at the results. the original just works better then the wand and 175 on really trashed carpets. i don't know about the 360i haven't tried it. i would expect similar results.

I will be interested to see how much difference in cleaning between the original dual counter rotating head Rotovac and the 360i Rotovac. I have no doubt they both will edge out the scrub and wand on the worst carpet challenges.

After extensive use of the machines over the last couple weeks. I have come up with a couple quick points

Prescrub is far quicker overall, heavier and pounds more spots and stains out

Rv360 and original (I am not using the 360i) it took extra time on spotting and original seemed to remove more dirt and soil than the other 2(not too much more but definitely more than with a red pad or nylon brush and much more than the 360) I always wand anytime I use a rotovac to DECREASE dry times and change the pattern in the carpet.

Unfortunately I thought you were brighter than that Lee. Lets run around and call the grammar police, if you didn't understand what I was saying and that is all you got out of the post have another coffee put a little something in it this time

I would never attack your grammar, I don't even know her.

Just making sure you had your facts straight.

I just power scrubbed a nasty poly carpet. I need to start doing this more.

Scrubbing is the way to go.

That, high heat, and a good wand will have you covered.

Greg you have a good system.

Shoot me a pm of your set-up so I can see how you fit all those tools in your truck.
