Only done it on that childrens nursery which was run by a charity. It was the only way to do it economically. Water isn't a problem as long as you control it. Used to submerge clean rugs as well.

Probably wouldn't harm it as long as its tested, rinsed properly and dried quickly

Flotex told me to bucket and scrub Flotex years ago. I think the traffic lanes do not come up properly because the pile wears short and the dark backing shows through. If you rub the pile very gently you can feel how long it is, where it looks dark it will feel bristly and not softer.
I hate it anyway and charge a hefty premium.

I bought from Ashbys a hard floor wand (4 jets) and brush combi.
Would that be ok on flotex? or too harsh?

Thanks for the replies,
Trevor: Great advice mate, cheers!
Mark: Havent got a pad system at present, looking into one as we speak, thanks!
Joe: Not sure mate? Could be worth a try by the sounds of advice given the more flushing the better!
Thanks again.
All the best,
Jason.

The best way I have found to clean flotex is using the Texatherm system.
If you slightly over apply the cleaning solution and only half ring out pads, you can get fantastic results.
