Cimex and edging

June 12 2007 at 6:12 PM		Anonymous 
Okay scenarios are running through my mind about my soon to be Cimex. What do some of you use to clean the along the wall and corners? My thought was to use a soft brush on long handle and spray the edges down with soultion and agitate with brush, also thought maybe a blue doodle bug pad? Educate me please.

Keep in mind that most soiling occurs a few inches from the wall. Due to the anatomy of the human body very little foot traffic reaches close to the walls or corners. However when the need for edge cleaning arises, here is the answer. Just spray Releasit along the edge and hit it with the Edge Brush. It's even easier than it sounds.




Here's a link to the Edge Brush...

Jeff, the edger really works well on filtration soiling also.

Jeff, aside from spills next to the baseboard, or maybe soil filtration lines you will only need to vacuum along the edge. It is not much of a problem.

out of 113 jobs last year i had to use the stand-up brush to clean along a baseboard (because that crummy Cimex doesn't clean up to the wall) less than 5 times.

point is: it isn't as big an issue as you think it is.

same goes with my Challenger OP machine.

thanx --- Derek.

That brush

I agree with the others, it is not that much of a problem. However, that brush thing really comes in handy. If you get a bad spot take your 50/50 mixture in a spray bottle and scrub it with that brush and you can also scrape gum with the brush. Very useful just not used alot.
