High-speed buffing will make your work so much more efficient and the results will be so much better, there really isn't a better option. Trying to get decent results with a slow speed machine won't be very satisfactory. That's why I'm recommending a high-speed buffer.
Regarding the pricing for VCT floor care, it's pretty low typically. Normally it's around 10 cents per sq ft (frequently even less) for a clean & buff. But if you will provide the service as an add-on along with the carpet cleaning, you can normally cover yourself with the profit that you generate with the carpet cleaning, and still make a little extra. In other words, you can add a little bit more revenue by performing floor care as an add-on service - if you do it along with the carpet cleaning. On the other hand, the money you'd generate by performing floor care as a standalone service is generally abysmal, and probably not worth your while.
