Chuck,

If you are considering a Turbo make sure you compare. Hybrid is much better and will take 3500 PSI along with extra high heat. Nothing else does this.

Remember, you can buy oats two different ways at two different prices. Before it goes into the horse and after it comes out of the horse.

The answer is the more pressure and heat you use the faster and better the finished product. Now this unit works on water pressure and vacuum. What PadMan is saying is that if you first use his system it will offer the extra mechanical action the Turbo Hybrid does not have. Then use the Turbo to rinse extract.

Makes for an excellent system. Most people doing this are finding it very profitable.

Just curious... what do you recommend on hard surfaces for us with portable units?

You can purchase a seperate pump that gives you 1200 PSI but as Ken indicated because of the high water volume you woud be dumping much too frequently.

I will gather some pictures and information on a portable for you to see hopefully tomorrow that will allow you to clean effectively with the Turbo Hybrid.

Mike;

 

I must agree with the Pro here, Johnny G (from ccc cleaning systems), and his recommendation of using a mechanical "scrubbing action" first; then a rinsing process (using a tool like Ted recommended) to complete the job. Mr. Johnny G has had a ton of experience in this area.

However, this procedure  gives a much more even and through results without any liability and possibility  of blowing out any of the grout, or leaving streaks especially if the tile had been waxed, or coated.

And, btw, one does not need a over-blown TM to do this either. There maybe ---high performance--- HWE equipment out there that comes standard with 4 wheels , but will have more than enough psi and vacuum and supply/recovery capabilities in an effort to give a complete rinsing of tile.

 

Great thread and question, Mike.

 

Good Fortune to your success;

Here you go MikeN,

Here is a previous forum post describing the "OP" (Oscillating Pad) cleaning method by our good friend PadMan.

I'm positive about the negative...and negative about the positive.

Just saying Mike that the OP machine digs deeper and removes much more than a turbo, but if you scrub with an OP and then mop off or RINSE with a turbo, then you have the best of both worlds.

I answered it Mike, and quite accuratly i think. You need high pressure, so if using a portable you better get one with a 1200 psi pump in it. But then you still got to worry about both emptying and filling the small tanks fast. So you are back to praying for a TM.
