SS upholstery tool I bought off this place!

It looks like it might be too thick at the chamber and the plumbing is also a little concern. I'd also like a better valve too!

That's one I haven't heard in a long time!

Larry and his infamous testing...lol

maybe he and Mike West removed some pork chop grease from their trousers to determine the winner.

If you had attended any of the upholstery cleaning seminars seminars,

you would have been aware of the 2.5 HOURS of hands-on cleaning with the Hotel furniture on Friday morning.

8:30 - 11:00 am – Live Hands on Demonstrations

CLEANING SECTION:​

Upholstery Cleaning – Shawn Bisaillon. Hands on demonstration of expert procedures for cleaning and restoring upholstered fabrics. See the tools of the trade and specialized techniques to add to your service.

If you hadn't spent your lifelong savings on the AT truck . . .

you could have registered for all of the seminars.

Larry

P.S. Shawn did a great instruction job for the two seminars on Upholstery Cleaning.

He had about ten different tools for the "hands-on" cleaning.

If you get a chance to take a class from him, you will enjoy his enthusiastic approach.

I can pretty much guarantee you I've cleaned far more upholstery than any of the Segway crowd Larry.


Im sure there was plenty to be learned for non cleaners such as yourself

Bark a lounge. (I think that's a recliner but I had to say it. ) My dad used to say that. .. along with dungarees and chest of drawers.

There is a cfr hand tool that is 5 inch wide instead of 3 inches. It has no vac relief.

I wonder who makes the rotovac ss-looking tool. it looks like a winner if you can use high pressure and clean with trigger on going forward and back. Cfr tools only clean pulling back but can do high pressure and different choice of jets. They are very popular in england.

Shawn runs several TM crews every day,

so I think he has lots of experience with upholstery.

Also, not many cleaners have TEN current upholstery tools hooked up to an extractor to try on actual dirty pieces of furnitue.

I never saw him on a Segway.

Larry

P.S. Bill Y. seminar on selling was another good one.

thanks Larry, I appreciate that coming from an industry vet. I know you have attended a lot of seminars.

 

[Desk Jockey]

Bill you can't escape that fast, lets get a little dirt on you.

Jon Don sells lots of tools, The Freedom, CFR, Drimaster, Prochem & Sapphire, which tool would you use if you were a cleaner today and why?

Thanks for being such a good sport!

 

[Mikey P]

Shawn B did give me a very enthusiastic You must Be Mikey, nice to meet you hand shake..

 

[Lee Stockwell]

Somewhere I may have an old VCR tape of Bill teaching an upholstery class. It would be SUCH an awesome blackmail tool if I only could find it.

Suspect the boys recorded a UK basketball game over it....

Our SS tool is bad azz, although I will not sell our HK tool that also rocks! Now if I can just get another van to put it in.

Rotovac manufactures the upholstery tool here in the USA. It cleans equally with the trigger on forward and back and gets closer to the corners and edges than the SS tool.

 

[dealtimeman]

We don't like the Sapphire tool because the vac hose is weak and crushes under pressure and heat, so we use our old Prochem tools

If you would like to sell me your sapphire tool let me know.

When will they be available for sale?

I know everyone told me to just let the sleeping dog lie but I can't.
The suspense is killing me.

Marty---How do you like your SS Upholstery Pro?

Are you stocking that tool Larry? Link?

 

[hogjowl]

This thread had gone off the original course so far that I figured nobody remembered. Thanks for asking.

It's ok. Nothing special ... just OK.

I probably like it better than I do my old PMF tool, but not by much. The tool still sucks the fabric up into the slot just enough to make the tool drag.

If both slots were Teflon and had holes instead of slots, it would be the BOMB!

 

[Desk Jockey]

I knew you wouldn't like it. I'll buy it from you for half what you paid.....you used it so it's worn now.

 

[hogjowl]

You also talked me into going to 99 designs for a logo design.

That place sucks!

 

[Desk Jockey]

Contact Philip Newell he does great work, he doesn't mind working for swine either. ; )

 

[Ron Werner]

often thought if you took the HK /shear/hole design and make it witha plastic head like the SS tool, you'd have a real winner

 

[Doug Cox]

Just goes to show..... you can't please everyone.

 

[Ray Burnfield]

So your review is that it's the Best upholstery tool you've ever used so far?
I'll send you another one for the same deal and split the freight.
Heck, I'll even ask Nina to put it together so you don't have to call her.

Upholstery Wand? It looks more like a knock off of the CFR tool than the original tool. How well does it clean?
