Take one out and check to see if they have screens in them. maybe they are clogged also check the wand to see if the screen is clean before the valve.

Yup, maybe thats why I haven't replaced them in a while.  What would be ok for a four jet running 350psi.

Yup they are overlapping, Nope haven't been cleaning them with a pin. 

 They must be gone. 

I guess it's another one of those actions unincumbered by the thought process.

Maybe thats it. 

I get four nice little spray rows unless I spray forward and vac back. 

Got them before and after I put on a glide.  

Maybe its that I run about 350psi.

Or maybe my jets are worn. I'll check the jets.

I don't know , I've just done it that way so long I've gotten use to it.

I have uses a Pro chem 4 jest since Christ was a cowboy and I have never hat streaking problems.  Unless your jets are too small and you are trying to clean faster than the wand and or machine can?

different strokes for different folks...

I don't get what you mean by streaking...

the spray tips are dripping???

it doesn't clean well and leaves streaks???

so if you trigger on the forward stroke... I guess you dry vac back down?

I don't know Steamer.  Mine streaks if I spray on the back stroke. I've heard that 6 jet wands do the same.  I've spoken to several cleaners who go through the same thing.  What could be done to keep it from happening?  Reps I've talked to say its the nature of the beast.

I USE AN INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH DETERGENT.  NO OTHER COMPANIES IN MY AREA USE THE SAME DETERGENT AS I DO....VERY COSTLY

changing the subject.....

Does anybody have any good recomendations for a tile and grout cleaning solution?  I have a hydro-force SX12 hard floor cleaner and I have been using this product called Quake by hydramster.  It does a good job on white grout, but the darker colored grout (ex. light gray) sometimes streaks or blotches.  I just started doing tile&grout and it seems to have a potentially successful future.  However when i took a market trend in the Cleveland area, every company seems to be charging drastically different prices from one another...Hence the fact it is somewhat of a new thing.   What do you guys charge for tile sq/ft?  What do  you recomend as a cleaner?  Sealer?      

Also how is your tile and grout setup?     I just prespray, let it sit 5 minutes, scrub the grout with the grout brush, then go over it with the hydroforce sx12.  Any input would be great. 

Thanks

Mike
