Thank you rotovac

[Steamin McFadden]

Thought I owed a thank you to the rotovac guy who posted on my thread "360i vs RX 20 " I mentioned in that thread that I was getting prolonged dry times with the 360I, Way longer then what I get with a wand.

the suggestion was to soak the felt ring in water. So today I took a new felt ring soaked it for about an hour , it swelled up nice an fat.

Replaced the older one (that I thought was still in good shape) with the fat water swelled ring, then did a test strip in my living room, dry in 3 hours.

I cleaned my living room a couple weeks ago with the 360 and it took 8 hours to dry. HUGE difference, I will be changing felt rings more regular and make them swell up nice and fat.

did you spray it with teflon stuff to???

 

[Abigail]

Awesome. I just got my 360i and am finally ready to get started in the business.
Thanks for passing on the tip!

 

[Steamin McFadden]

Not yet , I have no Teflon, but will be ordering a butt load of felt rings , and change them out often . The biggest reason I avoid using the 360i is the long drying times, so I was just pulling it out on the real dirty jobs, now I feel good about using it any time.

 

[Mikey P]

Great tip.

Ill be sure to change mine out this weekend

 

[Jerry]

Where's a good place to buy them in bulk? Straight from Rotovac or a distributor?

 

[ruff]

How frequently do they have to be changed?
What's the cost?
Do all rotaries use the felt rings (I know the RX 20 does, does the Hoss need them?)

 

[floorguy]

no the hoss doesnt...

and the rx one is different then the 360 one

Thanks for the tip Andy!

I just ordered the deal from John.

Would be cool to see how often we should be changing the rings.

Andy - did you get the smaller jets on yours? That helps not leaving it so wet too.

 

[John Olson]

How did you order as I don't see your order.

 

[Cleantechsk]

Do you have a similar package for rx20?
