    Tornador for Christmas

    This week it’s time to play with stuff we got for Christmas. The Tornador was on my Christmas list and I got to try it today. I know that an air compressor with a flow rate of 4.5 cfm is required, but my compressor only does 2.2 cfm. Despite the low flow rate, the Tornador worked very well. I had to work in short bursts but it cleaned the strip of carpeting on the truck quite well.
    I’ll look for the smallest air compressor that I can find with the proper flow.

    That's a good gift! What chemical do you run in it?

    I used to live by folex in my Tornador. It's turns it into a magic stain removal gun.

    For now I used the sample Tornador enzyme cleaner. I was thinking of Folex or maybe even Megs D101.

    I was thinking about using folex in mine. Did you dilute it or run it straight?

    I diluted it 2 oz of detergent per 32 oz of water.

    Straight. A lot of times I would do a wide open blast with folex then shut off the chemical and keep air blasting it to try to get the stain out. Works pretty good if time is of the essence for you.
