anybody tied a rotovac, and are they any good?
as my carpet lance is doing me in
what is the cost of a decent one? many thaks in advance

[stevegunn]

Get rid of the extracta wand.Buy a 2 jet glidemaster wand with glide.

I'll even lend you one before you buy 4 wands in garage.

John Kelly does the 2 jet glidemaster for £139.50+vat

Try the Wonderwand - expensive - but since I got one, no backache to speak of - and Im over 60.

I heard a while back that there was a rinsing issue with the wonderwand is this correct ? can you use this wand with conventional chemicals or just micro splitters ?

[Joe H]

Must admit not heared anything like that before.

I use microsplitters but more often then not Nemesis Super and M Power as presrays, which is going to get circulated because I have the CFR 500 HWE machine.

In the tub I have had Prochem Double Clean powder, Prochem Woolsafe liquid, CFR anti foam liquid, Karchers own powder plus no doubt others that I wanted to try (not all at the same time).  I can't recollect any problems.  Just needed to make sure the jets were clean from time to time (4 of them).

Have a word with Matt Cleansmart Nottingham, or Amtech themselves.

Worth an enquiry and further investigation as the WWand is about a third cost of Rotovac (but I have never used a Rotovac so I might think that good as well....or not!!)

hi steve, used the glidemaster u kindly loaned me last night, but could not see how much , dirt was being lifted from carpets,
so i reverted back, to extracta wand as it agitates, the fibres
and u can see whats being recovered, it may be my lack of use of the glidemaster, is there a technique , or am i just told old to change?

[stevegunn]

Why do you need to see how much dirt is being lifted surely then clean carpet tells you that

[vangaurd]

the lights in the pub were half on , and the carpet multi colored
was hard to guage will try today on a domestic, carpet !

[stuart_clark]

looks a bit streaky steve ! did you bonnet over it to finish it off ?
