If you have hallways 5' wide, how do you run your 19" Cimex up and down the halls?
Is there a problem overlapping your runs, i.e. too much chemical and having it get hard and/or crusty.
Any input?

Hi Lee, it's nice to see you here. Overlapping passes is not a problem, in fact we normally overlap our passes a little on purpose. And getting a little heavier solution on the carpet will not cause it to become "crusty". The only concern with applying too much solution would be that wicking can occur in some cases.

Hi Lee
We do a ton of apartment corridors with the Cimex, we have never had a problem, just over lap a bit as I would recommend for any application with the Cimex.
We do 4 to 5 passes on each 50 foot run than a couple dry passes in the middle area and than move up to the next 50 foot run. It sure beats HWE with any type of equipment, faster, fast drying, super results.
Recommend it highly for this application.
Apartments, condo's, retirement homes, nursing homes.
