    Water tank transfer pumps?

    Dylan, I bought a 12 volt pump with an accumulator tank. This is how boats and RV's are plumbed. However I mounted my water tank higher and just used gravity. If you can't do it the simple way then go to Amazon and get pump and tank. Less than 100 for both.

    Water transfer question

    Karcher are cheap they will fail on the job. I had 4 Karchers in as many months. One failure cost me a client. I spent $480 on a MiTM at Amazon. That was in Sepember.

    HELP! I ruined my black truck.

    Soak it with IPA or a detailer spray for a minute. Then use a plastic razor blade to remove. You will find this works very quick and easy. I have even used this trick to remove real concrete. I keep a couple of plastic razor blades in my shirt pocket at all times, because of the many uses.

    Folex on alcantera?

    I have only done this twice, but I used my Torador Black with distilled water. I did this on a 1 year old AMG steering wheel and it just ran with nasty stuff. It shocked me how much body oil and salt that where embedded the material. It took 10 minutes and the client loved the results.

    Tornador Velocity-Vac and Tornador Black?

    I got rid of the extractor one month after using my Tornador and have never looked back. No need, no use. 98% of the time I only use water with the Tornador- it is a stain-eating machine. However, you WILL need a shop vac to remove the debris and filth it extracts. Do not skip getting a...
