Karcher steam cleaner (and others)
« on: April 20, 2013, 09:19:23 am »
Lots of TV ads recently for steam cleaners, showing remarkable results on grout.

I've got a lot of grout that needs cleaning up -  If I bought one though I get the feeling I'd be disappointed, right?

Grout will always be cleaned effectively with a grout brush. I get away with enzall or powerburst chemical wise. steam cleaner not required at all tbh

Aqua mix heavy duty tile and grout cleaner and a rotary for me.
Did have to use  some powerbust the other day as ran out of a/m,but was only for a few sq ft

Craftex champion with a rotary brush, then you could just wet pick up or even mop up.

It's not expensive, you just can't afford it.

a steam cleaner is a very handy multipurpose tool to have on the van. Nothing is better than one of these with the wire brush attachment on chewing gum. Have owned quite a few over the years the vax model is well designed and good value for the money.
