I wonder what the psychology behind this is
- Thread starter Mikey P
- Start date
Thank you for not using the ignorant phrase "pre-vacuum"I'm not sure that you have as much of a correlation as you might think Mike.
The vast, VAST majority of carpet cleaners do not do a dry vacuum step before HWE (and many before VLM...).
Those guys are one of two things or maybe both
-lazy
-weak
I learned how to clean carpet and cleaned that way for 4 years with a prochem quad without a glide. If my scrawny little arms can wand with a wand like that, they need to get out of this business. I remember pushing and pulling one of those $1500-$1800 (stupid overprice) wands. It's not as bad as you're describing. I think it's more operator error than ease of use
But back to your original statement. If they refuse to vacuum, they need to learn to wand without a glide to pick up all the junk. Tell them to buy a protein shake with that glide money to build muscle to move that glide less wand if they're too lazy to vacuum

just keep copying idiotness
Dry vacuuming is the proper way to say it. prevacuuming is made up. My spell check even red lines it. Doof

I don't have an issue, but many do.
I hear far more complaints about the twelves, oddly enough

NO.....she has plenty to show for it if admiration counts......
Our language has Greek origin
Greek word for dry: xiros
Greek word for vacuum: keno
Greek words for prevacuum: you’re an idiot

Remember when she sent me that trophy for longest thread on the blue board......

It was one of the numerous industry bulletin boards from yesteryear, and before the birth of Mikeysboard.
The exchanges between Mikey, Marty, Bob V, Fred Boyle, Jimmy Ladwig, and a few others you might know was beyond venomous in those days.
Even Marty's stabs at Mikey now are love taps compared to those days.

Ahh an argument about the meaning of Greek words.
You'd think this was the First Council of Nicaea
This place has indeed come light years since the Blue Board/ICS Board/Cleanfax Board

The two of you have been at this so long...I wonder who started it?
Or if either of you remember?

I'd love to read those arguments in the past. Is there still a link to that board?

I’ve read that name several times on here but haven’t seen him on any of the current threads. Is he still in this game?

Mike ran him off years back.
He fell in love with John later after he started selling John’s machines, but only after his new best buddy Mr. Labcoat bought (John) Guerkink’s company. Then, of course, he and Labcoat fell out.

Here's the final post in a bit of a robust discussion on the red board in 02. What gents they were
"Thanks X. I respect your wealth of knowledge and real world experience. I just wish you would share it without the put-downs to those who are sincere about wanting to learn from you. You have a lot to offer.
Thanks again for the explanation; I hope to meet you someday."

I fell in love with Charles Heaberlin's machines, John's were horrible.
Charles worked for John and took over the designing and building from John and his son many years ago.
John sold the company to one of his biggest buyers, Ted Borecki about shortly after TOPS started advertising here
Lab Coat Tim has nothing to do wiht any of it, but we can pretend that Marty is right as lying on the internet appears to be his only joy in life.
