    Re: I use the tornado and I recover door vinyls

    So what is actually penetrating the fabric? What about electronics in the door, not to mention high quality speakers we've spent long hours putting in?

    Hi roswell630, The expelling liquid is pulverized and is not in large quantities, the cleaning effect is achieved by the correct APC used and the Tornado spin effect that gives the tool

    What is this shop vac attachment kit? Looked in the store. Could not find it.

    Re: I use the tornado and I recover door vinyls

    Been looking at this tool. Can somebody help me understand what it will do that a APC with a brush won't? Is it just faster, or does get out dirt that can't other wise can't be? Also curious about the shop vac attachment. Can't really invest in an extractor, but would like to extract grime from carpets.

    It evicerates dirt. Best to just watch you tube vids to get the idea.

    Re: I use the tornado and I recover door vinyls

    Just because no one has mentioned it yet - the Tornadors require a significant amount of air volumn (at close to the high end psi of 90 if you want it to reach it's potential). Don't think you're going to get any work done with anything less than a 30 gallon set up. You would be taking forever. Even on most 30 gallon setups, good luck keeping it at 90 psi while you work.

    I bought a two stage compressor (peaks at like 150 something psi) with a 5hp motor and 60 gallon tank to run my tools. It may be more than needed, but will always get the job done.

    If you want to try running these tools off one of the various 30 gallons available, I would strongly suggest you look for a compressor that pumps to 120psi. Like I said before, it works best if you can keep it near 90 psi as you work. The 30psi slack would greatly help.

    Pretty much rules it out for mobile guys. I've looked into it and it just doesn't seem feasible.
