no prespray?
That's a long haul. What I do is turn around and face the light, the clean in that direction. The hose just follows along rather than backing up and having to pile the hose behind you.

We pre spray before we brought in the vac hose.


Twenty two years ago I told my wife to drop her drawers cause I was sick of pulling hose.

I love the power but sure hate stringing the hose and even worse putting it away. Gotta have the power!!!!!!

I think a high powered portable strapped down tightly to the van would sufficiently compete with any TM. :icon_rolleyes:

Where did you get the flexible end for the 2 in at the wand?

We have a banquet room we do twice and year and he only wanted HWE and no wands, just powerheads.

Last fall he finally allowed us to do a demo with encap, he loved it. Last week we did 25,000 sq/ft with our 6-Cimex's in half the time and with half the crew we normally use.

They were setting up rooms before we even finished. He said it that it had never looked this bright before and loved the fast drying. :icon_cool:

Wish they could all go that way but half the time we are still stringing hoses like Mike.


LOL "Do it that way for the rest of your life!"

I use a Cimex a lot

But not when corners and edges are a concern

It's not an"end"... its a bend restrictor.
My Parker hose store sells our by the foot.
I turned Greenie on to it years ago and he use to sell it, since then I think Bristor got hip to it and still may sell it

with A couple of power boosters and a savings of $70000 or more it can. I could send my kid to college for that.

I noticed that too but it sounded like he had steam at the wand. Must be a bad valve?

He cleans the same way as Mikey.

No scrub strokes.

Glad to see you are keeping the athlete in shape, at least.

I have valves to draw from separate heat exchangers so I can control temps.

The closed blue valve is for cold water.



Scrub strokes...lol.

Only poorly formulated cleaners need that lame method

Let's see a hallway on the upper floor.

Why even prespray just use an emulsifier at 2 oz per gallon and do ONE pull back stroke with NO dry stroke.

But oh yes................you run 16 flow so you are over wetting the shit out of it so YOU have to do multiple DRY strokes.

How ineffecient on a very lightly soiled carpet.

Amazing oh great Karnac The Korn Kobb how you are telling me how I cleaned that carpet when you were not there.
My son was only testing his left hand

Light Enzall prespay.
350 psi with a 12 flow weak RAGE emulsifier, one wet, two dry and an air path assist.

That was the top floor.

Way too much effort on a TOP floor with minimal soil extraction.

Don't over think this oh great SATAN.
