Steps - Krysmalski - 06-23-2012
I'm new to encap. How do you guys clean steps?
RE: Steps - encapman - 06-23-2012
Go the the top step, lean the Cimex backward against your upper body, tuck the handle under your chin, turn on the machine, and start scrubbing your way down the stairs.
Just kidding
A simple approach is to use the Drill Driver along with FiberPlus pads. Spray each step with a good amount of Releasit mixed at the normal dilution. Then scrub each step with the Drill Driver (attached to a drill with a handle attachment, or with an angle grinder)... https://www.excellent-supply.com/8-inch-Drill-Driver-Carpet-Cleaning-Accessory_p_10.html Another popular option is to scrub with an orbital car buffer. And another alternative is the HOS Micro that we also sell... http://www.hos-usa.com/products/orbot-micro.html

I have been using HOS Orbot Micro (bought through Rick) for the last 2+ months for steps and the results have been outstanding! Easy to use and does a great job. Always use with Release-it products of course and results are excellent.
Just my two cents worth but hope it helps you out.

Now I've learned how to CLEAN stairs. Next step is to learn how to BID stair cleaning. Some of these commercial buildings have very wide staircases.

$3.00 - $5.00 per step, depending upon width and soil conditions.

Thanks Rick! I ordered a drill driver along with a bunch of other stuff from you guys today. Time to clean some stairs.
