I'm getting ready to purchase a Mytee Light II heated extractor. Is anyone else using one of these? Right now I do a lot of detailing part-time and eventually going to start a mobile detailing business. It looks like the Mytee light is just what I need right now.

What carpet shampoo is recommended? Could I use an APC instead since it has hot water? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

I USE THE MYTEE 11 GAL UNIT AND IT WORKS GREAT ,BUT IT IS LITTEL TO BIG TO TAKE IN AND OUT OF MY TRAILER. I LIKE THE MACHINE BUT SOME TIMES FOR SMALL JOBS I WHISED I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN A LITE. The mytee line is great i spent 4 mo reserching till i bought mine (GOOD LUCK)

sorry i was looking at the news and typing at the same time !!!
 
What is the best shampoo to use with it? Or can you just spray with an APC and then extract it?
 
I personally don't like to use soap in my extractor (Duramaid). I just use it to rinse the carpet area. I pre soak with a Woolite mix (6:1), agitate with a brush and let sit for 15. I then extract with hot, clean water till gone.
Same theory as taking a shower. You wouldn't lather up with soap and jump out and dry off right? You'd rinse first. Same process here. If you don't, you'll get hazing and a crusty residue that will appear days later. Not good.
 
How do you like your durmaid? What does that run?
 
I got mine for about 600.
The only thing is is that you have to let it heat up for 15 min. where as the Mytee has an inline heater. I like the Duramaid because of it's size and strenth. Sometimes I don't even need it to heat up. I really don't do alot of interior shampooing. I've found that doing spots with a MF can do alot.
