Who enjoys it? I love cleaning greasy counter tops, floors, but really I hate doing showers.

So. What tools and juice do you use to ease the job?

Hate showers too. Similar to "floor-tooling" a couch, I've used a Turbo Hybrid carefully (no pix allowed). Also have a turbo nozzle on the lance.

I think everyone hates it but mikey charges enough to make it worth his while.

I will say if you hate cleaning shower walls I can't even imagine you thinking about you polishing them.

pick and choose the easy ones. If you put the word out that you offer this service you'll have every scum bag and their 30 year old rotten grout, molded through and through, caked up butt wads, loose tile, stalagmite pos calling wasting your time.


You'll need box and straight razors, pics, dental tools, every fiber pad color, Cobbs acid, Magi Als Glass and Metal Magic, Stone Scrub form Stone Pro, 0000 steel wool, HEPc shots, knee pads, enhancers, caulking gun and white, almond and clean silicone, re grouting skills, a radio or Ipod and the balls to tell them you aint stepping in for less than $300.

To me, its all about price. If someone pays the price: I will "like" doing it... I have priced myself way out of many of those calls.

Some callers basically hung up after hearing the prices...I would call back apologizing for getting disconnected and asking: when would they want the work done?
And they tell me they figured it will cost them around $20-25 to clean a shower and bath. That's when I know they hung up and we didn't get disconnected. :lol: :lol: :lol: love those calls!

Can we plan on hearing a presentation for this service at MF10?
