I was ordering about four 400 pound drums of Cobbs powermax a year but the price kept going up. So now I've been using Flex with citrus solv. What happened to your zipper, sell it?

Flex is my favorite prespray!

I sold my Zipper so I could buy 2 Cimexs to keep up the demand for my biggest account.

Love my Cimexs but I REALLY need a zipper again. Will be horse-trading a bunch soon, hope i can end up with 2 15" models. Could TEAR UP some commercial work with dual zippers & the vortex.

Flex with Citrus Solv is the best prespray I've used for trashed CGD too.

Flex is a lot hotter than the competition stuff too. I liked it worked well on apt. carpets

$2500 is a lot for that though.

I wonder if MB would have some sort of special.

Or even maybe a competitor like MYTEE would make a cheaper version?

No offense, but that video doesn't do the Zipper justice.
BIG. OPEN. AREAS. Are what makes the zipper shine!

no offense taken. I agree the zipper shines on big open spaces. I was cleaning a bunch of cubicles today and there was somebody there working so I asked them if they would tape this for me.

hard to tell when your serious or just being your regular self Mikey :winky:

Eric, you should put a heat gauge in line that's easily viewable from the cleaning stance - not having to bend over or anything :)

Here is picture one of my customers sent me a while back. I personally would not want to manufacture the Zipper w/ a temp. gauge, as it is something that could fail. But,as you can see, it can be done.

Yes, Mikey is joking. John is a good man and he would never do anything like that.

If Mytee thinks Erik can sell a thousand of these, they will rip it off because they'll think their POS $999 version will be better.

Here is a video I took last week which shows how the Zipper can easily be pushed with just a finger and thumb. I wish I could illustrate the amazing dry times- hope to see many of you in Vegas!

It would makes sense it would work in open areas so while the video doesn't show that it does show how well it works in tight spots. Nice tool! I agree with Jimmy we need an MB special like buy 2 get one free! Easy, take it easy Erik, I was just kidding.

Half off would be fine! :p

Let's see, it doesn't have a motor............and the spray is always on......no trigger.

And the price is right up there with any roto scrub n' suck?

Can't see the value there.

maybe for around a grand it would compete with those overpriced Ti wands but...................

I fully understand its intent and purpose.

I just happen to think it should be a $1400 tool.

But I doubt Erik is willing to lower it to Mytee like levels of construction, fit and finish.

If he can find enough buyers who see the value, more power to him.
