For use on Residential, or CGD. If i have an area, that requires more mechanical agitation then a grandi brush could i use either of the 3 above on top of my normal Prespray - Citrus - boost all combo, to " Scrub " it in better and release the dirt. THEN come behind it with HWE to extract the slurry i created out.
Which creates better agitation for this purpose. I am familiar with these machines as far as weight, and what they can do for en-cap. cleaning. I am just looking for the best / quickest method to add this mechanical scrubbing to my prespray. I know a Bonnet only goes in 1 direction at 175 rpm. The Cimex, has those CRB's and is about 400 RPM. but does it create to much friction with my liquid PS. ( Slam, Citrus, and Boost in a HF). Brush Systems i personally like for this application ( from what i have read). The procaps machine is light and portable, but doesn't look like it has enough weight to really scrub fibers. Thoughts? ------------- Space For Rent |

I have as 13" Hild. I use a showerfeed brush following pre-spray but I can actually put the prespray in the shampoo tank and apply it that way while scrubbing. Charging more for it and combining it with Rotovac for the MIGHT package. 70lbs of machine I need to haul up and down stairs. ------------- Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity? |

How would you sell something like that. If it was lets say $30 a room, with a normal prespray treatment, with a grandi brush aggitation, and then normal HWE.
How would you sell the customer on using a better mechanical aggitation method. Your pretty much saying that the customers carpet is filthier then normal carpets, and requires extra elbow grease to get it clean. ------------- Space For Rent |

"Ma'am, these areas appear to have a little more soiling than the rest of your carpets. Would you like us to use our dual process on them so that we can obtain maximum cleaning results? It's only $xx per area." or something similar  -------------

Very diplomatic. Well worded. ------------- Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity? |
