Hook & Loop backing pads + Carpet Cleaner Scrubber Brush + Makita?

[Ohio Detailing]

I own both of the carpet brushes from CG's site (long and short bristle). I use them with my 3401 and love them. Only problem was that i was putting them on the original flex backing plate of 5.5" and they are such a PIA to get off afterwards. I bought the smaller backing plate for the flex and they are much easier to remove.

oh, i also own that drill attachment. It works really well but it was a pain to keep charging the drill batteries every night (i'm mobile).

Hi BostonDetails, thanks a lot for your help. Do you prefer the drill attachment or rotary for deep cleaning carpets (and the soft or aggressive / long short bristles)? THANKS!

i use the different sized bristles for different carpets. If I had to choose one it would be the short bristle but I use them both often. I really liked the drill attachment too though, I just didn't like charging the drill. I think that the rotary you have will be fine to use them with.

Have you used it on a rotary?

I have not. It's a brush though, it's doesn't have to be run at high speeds.

No and I don't think it would work as well as on a da.

You're probably right but he doesn't have a DA. I think it'll be fine. I might start using it on my rotary just so I don't have to switch the backing plate every time on the flex.

Dynamic, have you tried the brush attachment with the rotary yet?

Hey Boston,

No I have not... I didn't buy the attachment yet. Ordered the carpet brush with my last order which will be here today according to UPS. I have the Makita, and will eventually get the FLEX 3401. The Bissell Auto Pro Heat so far is really decent, a good product for $90, not $2,000, so that's a plus.

Is that you on your website? You're in the wrong business. You could be a one man piano mover.
