since there are 19 views and only one reply, I take it most guys don't know what size jets they run, which explains a few things, where there is smoke there is fire...

Maybe not, Greenie.

Most of the jamokes in the biz can soak a carpet with 04 flow.

Encouraging them to use more flow by posting what some of us use, might not be such a great recipe for them

After consulting with the grand master of wand pimping (Greenie), My 12 inch CMP wand jets went from 4 .015's to 4 .02's. Along with a holed glide, feather touch valve, check valves and a green horn kit, Greenie saved that wand from a trip back to Jon-Don for a trade in. Hey, what do ya know ... no more streaks! Now it's great.

Meat...no such thing as over wetting, only under drying.

Those Jamokes stand a greater chance of leaving carpet drier with larger jetting.

As soon as they realize they can actually get a rug clean in two passes with high flow and thermal transfer, instead of blasting it with 5 cause they are misting it with tiny jets, they just might see the light.

ps: Dan, don't tell BL they are happy with the POS WestPak wands now, just tells me purchasing doesn't talk to service and support.

I have one with 2-02's and another with 2-03's. I have a small blower so I probably shouldn't go any larger.

By the way those wands came with 01's on one and 015 on the other.

stock PMF 802 - I think its two 03s but I'm getting religion.
I suspect I'm going to get converted and baptized at MF by Father Greenie.

Most of my customers are running 4 x 1.5 @ 550 PSI

A few have gone to 4 x 2.0 @ 550 PSI.

One @ 5 x 2.0 @ 500 PSI.

Floorguy, That will be an interesting topic. When I switched from o6 to 09 my psi atm drops 50 psi when I key the wand. I can imagine atw psi is way down.I think 09 flow is near the limit of the pump. Anyway it cleans GREAT !

I run my own wands except for my Stanley 6 jet. That has 6 01's in it with a holed Greenglide. My 2 jet is (2) 11003's and my 4 jet is (4) 95015's. I run my pressure around 400 psi atm. This set up seems to be a perfect balance for my cleaning style and my machine.

I just moved up to 4 x 02 for my CMP wand and cranked the psi to about 500 and it seems to be working well.

02 jets

and Greenie is right on about blasting the dirt outa crummy carpet. Turn it down if you don't need the flow. Crank it up if you do.

2 - 11002's on my modified 2" big red wand
500PSI ATT

Sure did a nice job on my carpets this weekend. 2 passes, dried in about 2 hours on average with average airflow (ceiling fan, open windows) and after teflon application.
