Title: Rotary versus orbot etc
Post by: dek on January 12, 2014, 06:44:35 pm

now that we are swamped with so much new chemistry in the way of encaps has this overtaken the mechanical side of things ?I suppose what I am really asking is the performance of an op machine that much superior to a conventional rotary with this new technology.Can we earn more thru the shear performance of op over rotary.Appreciate any feedback either way.

I may have something that will interest you.

I was told today it is being dispatched to me.

Once I have had a play I will let you know how it performs.

I think the orbot gives a better job because it has a better chemical application system, the spraying at the  front allows more solution to hit the carpet.

I noticed I use a lot more solution when I use the orbot than when I use a rotary with a pump up sprayer
