100% VLM ???

[frank fratto]

OK , not a knock, just maybe being realistic, there are limitations.
I love my VLM tools. Worx ,, original CCS OP Stepson
and ,
drink the Kool Aid time to time.

many years ago,, Vacaway claiming they are the best , newest at oily terribly soiled olefin!!! Heck yeah!! I'll try anything.
I forget which version it was back then.
Had a real test. Vacant home. some of the thickest , densest olefin you will EVER see. inch deep, could barely push my finger between the face fibers to get to the backing. White, TERRIBLY soiled. (old pics, with old phone don't do it any justice)
Got some of the aforementioned juice. And being realistic , realized the situation was not one for 100% VLM. I actually used the juice as a HWE cleaning agent first. Yeah foam, foam ,,, foam, I was anticipating that. and dealt with it. But , wanted to see if the touted magic juice of the day was IT! So performed the PITA foam filled HWE .

Quite a bit of drying strokes, BUT, I knew , plenty of that magic juice was down in there. just waiting to drag the oily, soils up into my absorbant bonnets spinning under my OP, leaving it like new.

NOPE!!!! traffic lanes still dingy. and NOOOOO, no blend mend! LOL!

Again, meant for me as an experiment. Spent probably 5-10 X the time that area should have taken.

Next time?
Add a little ammonia with your mix and good dose of peroxide.

POP GOES THE WEASEL!!!

It was so long ago, I forget , but, I think I did use some peroxide. And maybe the juice was one that had it. the point being, wanted to see if indeed the stuff did what it claimed.

As , it was claimed to be the magic bullet , all by itself. for those oil loving , olefin, and poly fibers.

I get it.
That's why I always bump olefin and poly fibers with ammonia and peroxide, I'm always bumping something
Not a one jug guy!!!

I think I'm going to order one of these. I had one way back, but I could never get it to prime. I think it was defective because I tefloned every thread and connection.

I had a problem with the quick connect on the spray wand. Got rid of it and have a permanent connection there. No more priming problems.

Hydrogen peroxide is Magical!!!

TM guys haven't realize the power of it!

Got to be very careful with it[ Heat ]

They don't use enough of it because they can't

PS. Nice Job!!!

That is what quality Battery sprayers are for. HWE knows about Hydrogen Peroxide and how to apply it properly when it is needed.

@Cleanworks @frank fratto @SteamwayPro what model of Worx Sprayer are you guys using and battery size? Have you made any upgrades like fittings, jetting, Lance length, etc? Post pics if you have them. All input is much appreciated.

TM- guys cannot use hydrogen peroxide like VLM guys.
It keeps oxidizing at least 60 minutes if not longer?
You've already blasted it with 200+ degrees with your wand?
And if you guys truly know the true power of it ?
You guys would've been talking about it on this form for years. {Like every day because it is MAGICAL!!!}


Most TM- guys don't know how to apply it properly? They're too scared to experiment with it?
So you let some chemical manufacture add a little bit to their jug and they raise the price?


Most TM-guys can turn a wrench, but they're scared to death when

it comes to their own chemicals?

They've been told from the powers above , they're not smart enough


Just remember high heat and peroxide it's a no-no

Swani,

Worx, is my back up, I've kept it stock.

I replace the wand with Multi Sprayer Wands. I buy the Multi Sprayer wands from Magic Wand. You need a Worx short extension for that. I buy them on Amazon. I use the 20v battery

Awesome! Thank you! I have an old plug-in multi sprayer that I can rob that from.

 

[SteamwayPro]

I have 4 wands that I use all with different teejets 8002 8003 8004 8006

I mostly use 8002 8003 but if I get into big rooms the bigger teejets 8004 8006 helps because you can move faster or if the carpet is trashed to put more down


Model # WG620 or WG620.1

Search that number on ebay for good deals. I buy them from Worx on ebay. Worx sells them on ebay refurbished like new and cheaper than amazon. They used to be $65


You will need more than one battery and of course you need to charge everyday if used

 

[SteamwayPro]

You can just use the wand that comes with Worx

I did it that way for a few years

Just add teejet

This is my set up. My draw hose is clamped directly to the inlet. It's the 20 volt model. The jet is a regular vjet screwed into a 1/4 inch open power wash fitting which the gun is set up to use. You can plug in regular power wash jets if you want. I'm using an 8002 jet. The one thing you have to be aware of is, these are designed to be mini power washers. This runs at 700 psi. It atomizes much more than a Hydra -force putting a lot of mist into the air. You may want to consider wearing a mask when using.
