My Rx vac connection is 2” my porty hoses are 11/2 not saying it will not work, never tried it!

The picture I’m referring too is in your photo gallery. It ok now it’s a stool.

How do you rate the hard floor attachment v cost of it?

Hi Len

yeah a porty vac hose fits straight in to the internal of and RX hose fitting, not the best air flow with the reduction of the cuff but works a treat.

Ahh that stool is from the wetherspoons in Boston, black top even on the back of the bench seating,

As for the cost of the hard floor attachment, how much is it  ??? ??? I borrow mine, infact I think that pic was taken when I was working for someone else, but would highly recomend it if striping and sealing alot of floors or deal with acid descaling etc but I know most people are a bit affraid to get there hands dirty or work to hard  lol ;D ;D ;D ;D

Wethersthingys are upmarket to the ones I do; one time was considering hiring a kango customer would not go for it even though I tolled him, it would patch up his drive, he told me just to dump the water on it will dry out :o

I think in the region of £400 plus, what hard work if you have the tools, this one appears to be ott on prices for an attachment which wears out! ;D
