I had it powder coated then I rebuilt the machine from the ground-up.  I decided that I wanted a more "industrial" look to it so I had it powder coated dark gray and silver instead of the original blue and silver...what do you guys think?

I have had a job this morning in a mall on commercial carpet. Used Punch as Prespray and then DS2. Worked with my CRB.

My question: I could not see any light white foam. Did i use not enough solution? Put it down with a pump sprayer.

Because i felt a little insecure i jused some compound...and have had more work as i calculated.

How much solution should i use?

What or which is the best machine to use with residential carpet cleaning?

What is the best way to get rid of extrem pet urine smell

Whats is the method that Rick uses for gum?

I already did the Cimexing job and want to go back and hit some bad spots, but I am not going to take the machine again. I am thinking I can do it by hand.


Maybe freeze it apply the gel and scrub by hand.

Thanks

I have read different threads about using VCT floor pads for agitation with the Cimex or 175 .

Are these the regular white pads for hard floor and they do not damage the fiber in residential?

I am going to buy a 175 rpm for using in residential and hopefully more in commercial.

Hi Rick, I spoke to Rod(?) earlier via phone but I believe you're closed now. The replacement cord for the Vario,does it come with the strain relief boot thingy? I need to order one asap but if it doesn't come with it can you tell how to remove the original?

I got a new account servicing 21 super high traffic convenience stores.  (open 24 hrs)
I did the first few with the Orbot, pad, HWE extract the mud then follow again with the orbot with a microfiber.
Great results but very time consuming and was using a new pad every three thousand sq.feet because the carpet tiles are very coarse/rough. Pad actually wore so thin you could see through it and the pad fragments added another clean-up step.

Rick suggested the white brushes for my Cimex and Punch cleaner.
We serviced three stores last night with the new brushes and Punch with more than Excellent results.   

Thanks Rick

Has anyone tried both products? Does Encap-Basic clean just as well as DS2? I see that encap-basic doesn't have the built in soileze protector.

Thanks Guys

Does Anybody make a 175 that operates wheels down - similar to the vario concept?
