Heres some pics of a job I did the other evening . I chose Lm over HWE on this occassion and it worked well. HD microsplit with energiser prespray , grey scrub pad then pads  wrung out in Surround ultra encap.
Just imo shows its worth having a hoice of systems , horses for courses as they say.

[Simon Gerrard]

Mike,
Nice job, what did you use?

Simon

All the pictures I've seen of LM have always been low profile, any of you LM devotees got any of pile carpet being cleaned?

[wynne jones]

Can all the Big Brother contestants please stay in the garden area for 30 minutes please. Why Iye man. 

[Len Gribble]

Just a question for the LM guys (so don’t bite my head off) why the ringer bucket and is there a need for it


Simon

Look like a DF machine to me could be wrong as it appears mike ant a fusioner 

[Simon Gerrard]

I was thinking chemical wise.

Simon

[Len Gribble]

Simon

don’t think he’s a you know what


(HD microsplit with energiser prespray , grey scrub pad then pads  wrung out in Surround ultra encap.) Methinks a bomb in the making, need to be on some ones watch list 

[Simon Gerrard]

Doh, silly me should read people's posts properly., sorry Mike.

[Mike_Roper]

Yes your right it is a DF machine , in fact its on of the first when they first came out when Shaun was working with Brian Phlbin in Stockport . So I guess I'm one of the first 'fusioneers'. However I've called it LM cleaning in this instance for obvious reasons.
I prefer to wring the pads out in the solution after prespray/scrub , go over an area work it in then flip the pad and repeat , new pad and repeat.
I dont think its a bomb cocktail , unless anyone else can enlighten me ?

just to show L/M in a domestic setting

 I did this this morning in a sheltered house complex, the warden called me and said they had new carpets fitted in all the corridors but they had a problem with one elderly gentlemen. His carpets were so dirty he was creating a traffic lane on the new carpets from the dirt he was picking up off his own dirty carpets.

it was on the third floor with no access for the T/M so we bonneted them. This video doesn't really show the extent of the traffic lanes in his flat but it does give some idea of L/M cleaning and how effective it can be on dirty carpet in a home

PS; the carpets were nylon so quite an easy clean anyhow.

Noisey bloody thing that, Mike. What machine is it?

Simon

[Mike Halliday]

1st thing I was taught don’t mix chem’s unless compatible

Do you find using the wringer bucket leaves to much water down and drying time are increased?


Mike H

Dose your system use a wringer bucket

[Simon Gerrard]

The thing with using LM is to make sure you haven't got anything with you to compare results, that way you can see what you want to see.

[Mike Halliday]

len no you start with dry bonnets and spray in front of yourself as you move forward

Simon..... EXACTLY!!!!  I have come a cropper with that. I have bonneted in places were i have also used the T/m when they meet you can see which cleans better

[Mike_Roper]

Len,
Would you say that the products I'm using are not compatible?
I am sure that dipping pads in a wringer increases drying times compared to spraying then dry pad , but think that you need a certain amount of moisture to work in ad release soiling. If you quicky off load the pad over  set area first then go over the area working the pad more thoroughly using both sides drying times are ok
