Title: prowler
Post by: jim mca on January 24, 2014, 12:53:48 pm

I am not wanting to start a porty vs truckmount debate but would like opinions from people who have changed from high spec portables to a prowler or small TM and how the prowler compares against other small TMs  also from anybody who has changed from a truckmount back to a portable why they made the switch back

Thanks
Jim

I went from a 22hp truck mount to a storm as I just didn't utilise it enough as I use a thermadry 95 per cent of jobs and the storm is a stionkin machine that cuties love too.regards Alan swindon

I went from a Jag 6.6 to a Prowler and then on to an Enforcer...

How does the Thermadry compare to the Storm Alan?   I have the Storm too and think it is excellent.

Richard, a Thermadry is a lm system similar to dry fusion. I don't think you can compare it to HWE (i.e. the Storm).

Richard yes the storm is  excellent it's just that I can do a very large amount of my jobs with much less hassle and effort with the thermadry

Spray down pureclean mixed with some cotton smelling craftex deo then apply catalyst to pad and a little on the bad areas then brush in if required.Regards Alan

Maybe getting confused with the Texatherm system. That has an extractor as part of the set up.
