Title: Scrubbing or shampoo brush on rotary agitation
Post by: john mathers on January 05, 2016, 11:29:10 am

Hi guys, not too sure if ive made a cockup.

I have a 15" 200rpm rotary, and i just bought a hard scrubbing brush for it instead of a shampooing brush.

Its to be used for agitation on mainly domestics.  Should i have bought a shampooing head attachment or will this be ok?

No you need the scrubbing brush to use the rotary  for agitation, the shampoo brush is too soft.

 as long as it's  carpet scrubbing brush not a  stiff hard floor brush.
 
Might need breaking in on a concrete floor (or your driveway)
