Splain This To Me

[Goldenboy]

When I clean steps I use my Twand with a Greenglide. I dry stroke them when done cleaning with my twand. Then I go back over the steps with my Unglided Jeff Lydon stair tool. I can see lots more water being sucked out. I put lots of pressure down on the stair tool. Is that why Im getting more water out of the carpet? I thought glides were suppose to dry the carpets quicker or do we use glides just to save our backs? 56 blower I got is no joke Mofo.

Does your glide fit well?

 

[GCCLee]

Slower is faster : )

How do you see more water being sucked out?

I wouldn't think the pressure would make that big a difference, you're not compressing pad. The unit has more than sufficient power to just let the suction do the work.

How is it your scrub wand is leaving the steps so wet? I usually find it does a better job of flushing and leaves them drier than the standard stair tool.

Waldo something is wrong.....besides that hair style.

Easy... take it easy..... that was just a joke!

While they make life a lot easier, I do not think glides remove more water than an un-glided wand.

And I don't care what far flung, far fetched air velocity, cock a doodle doo explanation Greenie came up with.

 

[Desk Jockey]

But Ofer do you think it removes less? I don't think it removes less.

I think Waldo is doing something wrong........as usual!

Easy...Easy.... it's just another joke.....like that hair!

I have noticed this before. (Not the part about "seeing" more water come out ... )

I notice that stairs and small landings that are cleaned with my unglided stair wand look better and dry as fast, or faster, than areas that are cleaned with my glided wand.

You continue to pull water no matter what you use with each dry stoke. The carpet is WET after all. The amount of water is the question. When is the last time you pulled the glide off and check to make sure you don't have a wand rat in your wand?

 

[hogjowl]

I realize you are talking to Waldo, but I think it has something to do with the size of the head and the lip spread. (Don't go there you perverts)

Both those factors increase lift ... right?

Well I can tell you, with out a glide I can hardly move my wand. So, yea I agree. An unglided wand/tool will will remove much more water... If you can push it!

 

[hogjowl]

You learn to stop pushing when you aren't running a glide.

I never found a GG removed more water than my unglided Stanley wand. I keep the glide on my spare wand in case of an emergency.

Waldo how and what do you do to clean stairs. Also I've never heard of the stair tools you use. We use a 4"PMF it works great no glide on spray jet.

That made me laugh WAND RAT!

Priceless

I also don't use a 12 flow wand on steps.

I think when all things are perfect, and you can keep your wand as level as possible during your cleaning. If you raise it up or down you 'll hear the point you get the best seal. That's were you want to keep it for faster drying.

Steps are to funky unless your 6:5

It's unrealistic to keep a good seal with that wand hence he use a stair tool to clean up his over wetting with the big wand.
