Titanium wand for 349.-???

[gimmeagig]

I just found this on e-bay.

I'm developing trigger finger in both my pinkies so I'm looking at a lighter wand to replace my Prochem Quad.
Could this one be good or is it junk?

Its not a true titanium wand. They newer versions have 6 jets and are complete titanium (hence the extreme price tag).

That looks like the ti wand made by AMF/Vinus. I don't recommend it.

Take care,

That is the other wand that I'm currently looking at.

I'm a little worried that the shear setup might be overly complicated.

Is this the same as the E-Bay wand?

Comes with teflon glide.

Joe will never screw a cleaner, in fact, just the opposite. But morecfm, well ????????

 

[Royal Man]

Joe, Ken, or the E-Bay. Aren't they all selling Vietnamese ti wands?

Are they a problem?

The Greenhorn is a CMP wand modified with a glide, WestPak Valve and shear angled jets

Also a Teflon core solution line, additional rubber on the vac tube, stainless QD, filter at the wand and the entire wand was polished by hand.

The jet set up included a custom manufactured and polished stainless manifold with 5 strategically arranged jets, the bracket was machined hard anodized aluminum, 5 of the 1" checkvalve/extenders, and 5 Spraying Systems stainless jets. All nuts and bolts were stainless.

Take care,

best wand ever....did i mention that it was heavy?

So where do ya get a greenhorn and How much is it?????

I have a quad with a sheer kit and glide and it leaves the carpet drier but doesnt flush as well, I like my 6 jet ti wand cleans deeper faster.

both wands are using #2 jets.

In all fairness the quad works great on thin less dense pile and burbur, a really thick pile and dense carpet I use the ti.

compared to the prochem ti what are the advantages of a greenhorn beside's oneless jet and less flow for a greenhorn which will maintain a little more heat on an hx system.

The Greenhorn wand is a poorman's TI wand. It Great if you don't have the money to shell out for a TI. The TI is a lifer wand. It costs about half the price of a TI and is slightly heavier.

Why not just put #3 jets on your Quad jet and call it good?

Contact John Olson, Larry Cobb, Joe Bristor, Les Jones, I'm sure one or more of them will have what you're looking for.

Persobnally, I prefer the 12" CMP low profile wand as the base wand for what you are looking for.
