I would charge £4500 and use mostly Lm rotary cleaning , with up to  4 buffers going , would hire in a TM  for the heavy traffic areas if possible.

Price wise i would cost that at between £4500 & £6440 depending on what you think you could get away with.

We might be available with a Scorpion porty, Hydramaster TM & bonnet system 07984 052 669

Same as jason and i would def go in with l m cleaning and maybe hwe for the main bad traffic areas.

Plenty of pads and you will find that some areas you will be able to use just a few on the not so bad areas..

Thanks for all the offers of help on this one

the work needs to be completed over a weekend

start date possibly next week end

as for using truck mount i have one but do not have enough hoses to reach

to the end of building,

this carpet has to dry out quick, for obvious reasons which

is why i wondered if dry fusion would be beter than just rotary , also what type of bonnetts are best for this?/  cotton or synthetic

also as there is heavy soiling of a industrial nature what would you recomend as the cleaner Prochem bonnet buff or chemspec ??

anyone had this type of experience??

there are some coffee staining and the odd solvent spot that would reqiure gel or other that does not affect the backing.

What of dry fusion any one ??

I use fusion clean from Nick I personally believe that I can get as good a result with a non heated buffer but I have had great results with mpower and nemesis from Restormate

I can bring kit to bonnet buff and also a porty. The worst area may benefit from a quick extraction clean, blowers and buffing to remove track marks.

Same as shaun and maybe take some turbo dryers.

there again it will dry very quick with the buffer and it does not matter if its a dry fusion or just a buffer and pads :)

Can’t comment on DF never used one, but understand chem.’s are very good think the equivalent to this system is thermadry can’t comment on that ether, think you need a demo (think a DF person in Dartford contact HO)


As for chem. what I use at this moment is roto-brite (it ant cheap) and pick up is local to me.


Never had a problem with synthetic also got a couple of charley pads and for the really big jobs 70lt builders pre-spay bucket (on a trolley) with an electric pump 250ft solution hose if needed (came with the tm) and fine sprayer (beats the 12lts pump-up if you got that size ;))

How much hose are you short or are you to the max?

Willing to hire equipment if needed or help
