I was thinking of adding/replacing a compressor to my spotting machine the idea is to have a small hand held extractor that could as well as spray it could also have the ability to generate foam perhaps John Martin could add his thoughts?

I don't tbh I think it's been on the go for some years so it'll be a see it when it happens, it would be nice to see it in the flesh.

Woodbridge used to have one for the Ice machines - found the same/similar foam gen on some Chinese sites that you can buy for half the cost but you have to then trust it turning up!

Hi , theres this thing ... perhaps someone here has owned one

i really wouldnt know where to start converting your spotter ... without looking into it all and experimenting
Perhaps Alltec would be up for the challenge ? might be difficult in a small space .
Couple of years ago i picked up a chinese tornado foam gun ... and there happened to be a briefcase size mini compressor in lidl for me to try . Worked good . but the compressor made a hourendous grating noise when running , put me off using it .
so i pretty much did little foam wise since .
Lately iv picked some evans dri-foam , cleaned a couch with a sponge and mit couple of times .did a rug with the rotary and foam and a hotel lobby , i def intend to do more shampooing or foaming or encaping or whatever when suitable .
What do intend to use it for yourself ? do people generally use foam much ?

I like the idea of aired foam cleaning and then hwe the more soiled areas if a small extractor could be fitted then I could change the solution to hwe with it there are a few different ways of manufacture the Von schraders method which is vacuum motor in reverse or compressor both adding air.
