You know what have been experimenting with encap with a slow speed rotary and a shampoo brush and have been stunned by the results, am seriously considering purchasing a new Cimex unless I can find a decent used machine.

Ex-Demo suit you?

talking of cimex,

Does any body happen to know where i can get the samll disk inserts that fit into the middlle of the brushes and pads , I believe they are to distrubute the solution more evenly.

Has anyone tested a Cimex against a Chemspec Chemstractor or a rotary machine with a red/white pad using en-cap chemicals to see any advantages over the different machines.

I have had them all.

The Chemstractor isnt great unfortunately I had the first one in the country but its vacuum system worked a little too well for low profile stuff making it difficult to manouver. On longer pile stuff it was good but the Cimex was faster. A shame as on paper it looks great.

A decent 40kg+ low speed rotary is great for ducking in and out of desks so in an open plan office is great.

The Cimex just flies through corridors and open spaces and its straight line action means less operator fatigue than a swing machine.

If you were buying your first machine for commercial I would recommend a 17" low speed rotary as it is the most versatile unless you have corridors, conference rooms etc etc.

Once you have the work add in a Cimex machine. Unfortunately there isnt a good OP machine available in the UK for the time being.

use i or photobucket to upload then take copy the url highlight it and click the little picture frame in the WYSIWYG.

I think it will let you copy from the site in the right format for posting straight in. should have [img] at start and end

I remember Geoff going on about the Cimex years ago, the post you did earlier is pretty much verbatim. God knows why I didn't get one then. Maybe it's finally sunk in.  :-[
