Op Machine and VCT

[Rob Lyon]

Anyone know if one will work for stripping vct???
I am probably going to trade one of mine for some other equipment.

Sure it will. It's just slower than a rotary, but it doesn't sling the stripper on the wall like a rotary. So, it has it's advantages and disadvantages.

I use mine for stripping most times.

Thanks Marty!!

I use mine all the time.........and it does not slig the stripper all ovr tha place.

I wish though it did not sound so much like a tractor........... :?

I have all the stripping brushes for VCT. Strata Grit, Strata Grit II, and Nylo Grit with the mounting cup already in it for the OP driver. The stripper stays under the brush and doesn't spin out. The stripper does the work. The brush keeps it moving.

 

[Scott Rogers]

Clark, dont the brushes load up with the stripped wax?

 

[leesenter]

You need the things Clark is talking about because my OPs sling slurry all over the walls. Never use it for VCT again.

My OP machine does sling solution up onto the baseboards when using stripping pads, but when using my tile brush it doesn't.

 

[Jeremy]

I have a rotary & it will sling a bit... The OP with pads will sling a ton. I can't comment about the brushes as I do not have them...

 

[Dolly]

That is why it is a good idea to use the brush.......... LOL

 

[Rob Lyon]

I have the tile brush, is that what you guys are speaking about ??
It is a 15" conqueror that I picked up from John G about 2.5 years ago
and it is still in new condition. I am doing a trade for some water damage equipment as I do not use it that much.


All The Best, Rob

I must have done something wrong because my Conqueror machine with the tile & grout brush slings crap all over the place

 

[hogjowl]

Actually, they all get crap on the baseboards.

It's just so easy to get Darlene heading into any direction you want.
