Hey what machine are you using to stuck the dirt up?
thanks for the examples!
AWESOME WORK!!!
We always love to hear positive feedback. We also have several new videos in the works. Mostly carpet cleaning tips and tricks. Greasy restaurants, huge commercial facilities, etc. Check back in a few weeks and let us know what you think.
This is so satisfying watch lol
Great job guys!!!!!
We appreciate it Jesse. Thanks for watching and subscribing. Let us know if you need any help on future projects or if you just have some questions we will do our best to answer them.
This video is so satisfying.
Shell Bee thank you so much! We think it’s pretty satisfying as well.
Shell Bee I just watched and said the exact same thing! I need my kitchen tile cleaned like this!!!
he's using the second generation tool made by Mytee. The first tool designed was the Turbo-hybrid, it cleans closer to edges, has a lower profile housing to clean under low toe kicks and vacuums up water more effectively. It was made in both the blue color and a bright green color. you can see it in many videos out there including the recent viral one that in 4 months viewed 30,000,000 times. By the way if your heat and pressure is adequate you never need to prescrub the floor flinging soapy water and grime against walls and cabinets or adjacent carpet.
Turbo-Seal jjjj
What model is it ?
thanks, so where can i find that MYTEE? how much and wear? amazin
Our company uses around 1500 to 1800 psi for best results. For this reason we don't stop to scrub before extracting. Letting the prespray do the work first then get to it. emulsifying grunge then scrubbing allows it to soak into the porous grout along with the oils, bacteria, soils, sugar, and soap residues. That's why we rely on the psi to do the work. Those who can't produce higher psi can only resort to prescrubbing. Those too afraid to "blow out the grout" don't understand how to pre inspect the job prior to cleaning. They also don't know how to offer additional services to repair problem grout. Soft, weak, errodded or missing grout needs to be repaired. Since we're completing the job with color-sealing, we usually do the repairs for free using a fast setting grout repair then get to it once the cleaning is complete.
We scrub the floors to achieve a better result. Agitation is extremely important when trying to clean Grout/tile. We use a slow speed machine scrubber to get the prespray deep into the soil. This step has allowed us to achieve great results. Most other contractors cut this step out to save time and money but in reality they loose time. Try scrubbing the floor the next time and see if it speeds up the process which will mean more money in your pocket.
Whats the name of the machine????
Hi what PSI are you using on the spinner?
This is the best
We really appreciate it! Thanks for watching.
Like a boss!
Jessica Keeney yaya. Thanks for the support
can you indicate the machine model and brand?
I need that machine.
What model is this turbo seal machine?
Omg I need this machine 🥺🥺🥺 what solution do you use ? Or the machine does it alone ?
Hi there
What’s the brand named !?
I wona buy one ...
Could you help me please 🙏🏽
Do you sell this machine in Australia ?
I notice there are two machines in the video. Are they two different options or is the first one what you're supposed to used and the second one comes in after to finish the job?
The first Machine you see in the video is a 17 inch slow speed floor scrubber. It spends at about 200 revolutions per minute. We use it to scrub our cleaning solutions into the floor much faster than we can do by hand. The second machine you see in the video is actually an attachment to our hot water extraction system. It's a revolution tool from the company Mytee. It has two high pressure jets that spray water up to 800 psi and also has vacuum ports around the edges so we can extract all of our cleaning solutions, dirt, grime all at the same time leaving the floor clean and sanitized. I hope this information helps. Thanks again for watching and your comments.
Was this epoxy grout? Was the grout sealed prior to it getting dirty? In conditions like this often the grout can get stained and seem to be impossible to remove the stain. Just curious.
It’s not impossible woth 1200psi hot water
howmuch for the extractor mytee? where can u find it? great stuff

Atlas cleaning solutions what kind of chemical did you use or where can I buy it thank you
We are waiting for the answer!
@@mldzcrmn4555 Must be a trade secret. I’ve looked at a bunch of these “pro” or contractor videos and they never say the name of.the product they spray on the tile/grout. That question always goes unanswered in the comments section . In one video the contractor mentioned an “alkaline” solution, but he never said a specific brand. .
Hey Atlas Cleaning Solutions Would you be at all open to a side project if it didn’t interfere with what you are currently doing?
GC Carpet Tile and Grout Cleaner it would depend on what type of side project it’s is. Let us know.
Something completely different that carpet cleaning part time if I sent you a video would you like to take a look?@@wtfamidoingtoday5092
GC Carpet Tile and Grout Cleaner sure. Send us a video. Or put the link in the comments.
what products are you using for the tile?
Jaime Vela for this job we used Bright Solutions brand Tile & Grout Refreshing Whitener. ZEP has a very similar product available at Lowe's and Home Depot
thanks for the tip
Couple spots here and there makes the whole effort due for a redo
I too used to think this was the ultimate way. Boy was I wrong
Cual máquina es
pressure washer / wet vac hybrid?
We use a truck mounted system from TCS. They are out of Atlanta. It heats the water to your desired temperature and has adjustable pressure settings for different jobs. The tool we are using has 2 high pressure jets along with vacuum ports. The jets spin as they spray the water/solution while the vacuum extracts it all.
So for my home project I should buff the floor first then use a steamer to clean the grout? And what about me shining the floor?
You can use a buffer or slow speed scrubber. For most home projects we use a scrub brush. It really boils down to the chemicals you use. If you have a light colored grout I would recommend ZEP Tile and Grout Whitener. Home Depot or Lowe’s usually has it in stock. As far as the shine goes we usually don’t put a shiny finish on the tile. Typically we use a matte finish tile/grout sealer. Helps make the floor stay cleaner longer. Hope this helps and thanks for watching.
@@wtfamidoingtoday5092 thank you so much for the quick response. I'll check home depot for those items and will give this project a try this weekend. 👍
@@wtfamidoingtoday5092 have you ever heard of aqua mix tile and grout cleaner from home depot?
I have heard of it but never used it. If you give it a try let me know how it turns out.
Could you kind of ghetto it with an oreck orbiter (similar to what you used to agitate) and a shop vac?
Yes, with the correct chemicals.
What PSI are you guys running? I'm guessing my mytee portable doesn't have enough pressure?
Usually we run it around 800psi.
Atlas Cleaning Solutions you did that with 800 psi, cold water and a good wand? Just making sure I understand
773creyes we are running 800psi with hot water. We use our Hot Water Extraction System on every job.
I came across a heated carpet cleaner, I think I get 400 psi from that so I was just checking. You force feed hot water?
Most of the guys you see in these videos are running heated truck mounts that are capable of really high PSI. The only portable capable of these pressures is the Ninja Warrior 1200. Those things are like $3k alone.
What is that blue contraption called?
The blue contraption is called a Revolution tool. It has 2 high pressure jets along with vacuum ports. So it cleans the tile with hot water at 1000psi and extracts everything as it goes. Hope this helps and thanks for the comment.
Look into melamine floor pads
Very nice work! Where are you guys located? I need to do that in my house!
We are located in Knoxville, TN. We would love to help you out any way we can. Thanks for the comment.
Atlas Cleaning Solutions
I will like to, but l live in California!
😂 you guys are a true professionals in what you guys do! Keep Up the good work!
God Bless !
How about never clean grout again. when you tile, buy poly blend grout paint which doubles as a sealer, it cost a whole $11 which covers 600 sf feet
Julie McLeod thanks for the info. The system we use doesn't just clean what the eyes can see. We have the ability to heat the water that comes out of our machine to 220+ degrees (water boils at 220). With a temperature of 220 degrees we are able to kill 99% of germs and bacteria. Not only do our customers get a new looking floor, they get a clean floor. We use a grout sealer if our customers wish to change the look but most want the grout to stay the same. Thanks again for watching
you still need to clean it .. as if Sealed Grout some how repeals dirt from your floor :)
what machine are you using?
bp24911 it is a revolution tool hooked up to our hot water extractor
Whats ypur psi on your extractor wondering if I can use my 150 psi extractor
sorry, these type of tools require 1200 psi to do optimal, efficient cleaning. I use 1500 to 1800 psi everyday in my business.
When you say you run yours at 1500-1800psi are you using a pressure washer or a Hot Water Extraction System? This particular tool is designed for tile/Grout and is only rated up to 1200psi (I believe). Anything above that can damage/blow out the Grout. It really boils down to what chemicals you are using?
I'm the inventor of the first practical "Spinner tool" The Turbo-Hybrid and the swivel in your machine is the same as in mine. I use a truck mounted cleaning system that potentially produces 3,200psi. The swivel can sustain 4,000 psi. By manufacturer's specs if properly mixed and installed grout is 5,500 to 6,200 psi. Concrete outside is rarely harder than 5,000 psi when cured. If grout blows out it's due to a bad installation on day one. I pre-inspect every job looking for weakness. I then suggest needed repairs and proceed to clean then color seal so the repairs are just a faint memory. Since my repairs are harder than the previous grout they are forever. Most cleaning professionals turn tail when they see weak grout. They miss out on the opportunity to serve their clients' needs and add additional income to their business.
How much is the machine Whom do i take if i want Talking to pakistan
if there was no trap music going this. i would of disliked the video. 😈
I've heard this thing is louder than a commercial airliner
It's actually more quite than most shop vacs on the market today. It connects to our hot water extractor which has a very low decibel rating. They only sound you hear inside the building is minimal.
how much do you charge for this type of job?
Prices vary depending on the size of the area. Usually it’s anywhere from $0.50 - $5.00 per square foot.

What is he using?
We are using a truck mount hot water extraction system. The tool that you see in the video is a EDIC 1200 Revolution. It connects to the hot water extraction system.
Can u rent these from home depot
I don’t believe you can rent one of these from Home Depot. I purchased mine from Truck Mount Solutions in Atlanta. Hope this helps.
You can rent a different brand floor steam tile and grout cleaner at some Home Depots. Look thrm up online.
Where can I buy this??
Sujimol Sujith it is called a Revolution Tool. We purchased it from TCS in Atlanta
How can I buy it online?
Great cleaning, but why did you have to play Jersey Shore music?
KnocksX we knew you loved the Jersey Shore so we chose this song for you. Lol. Jk. We just didn't want boring music.
Techno tile why
I am pretty sure you'd be happier with a "Turbo Hybrid" tile cleaning tool... Never need to use a floor buffer? What? Ever try to remove filmy Swiffer or any no rinse formula off tile and grout? Matter of fact ever remove filmed products on a natural stone like travertine? Floor buffer is required on jobs where floors not only are filthy dirty but have something layering on top of the surface. Best of luck!
ewww. I would not wear those shoes for this job! Give me some hazmat boats or something!
Word of advice if you are going to paint your grout it still has to be professionally cleaned. Grout is very porous and absorbs everything it needs to be acid rinsed before you can even think about applying a paint on the grout. The grout has to be prepped in order for the paint to stick to it if you put the paint over dirty grout it will eventually chip and peel. Also putting paint on the grout does not stop it from getting dirty , just from it staining if you use bad cleaning methods . Pinesol , Mr. Clean ect. These all leave residues wich attract soil and once the grout is painted if you have it professionally cleaned the wrong way the paint can peel . This method is a huge headache and I do not think it's a good Idea to apply it . Companies try to upsell this process to make your grout look new wich it can but there's alot more involved with it that they might not tell you. If the grouts cleaned right it will come out just like this video it looks pretty new to me with less headaches down the road. When you higher someone make sure they are IICRC certified and are a well know company and that is honest
professionals should stop calling color sealing "painting your grout" Paint is not a grout sealer. the components in paint are not the same as sealers designed for grout. There are 5 companies producing grout color sealers specifically for grout and they are to reduce the high maintenance of grout. Part of what you've mentioned is essential and true but using the correct product not "paint" is what makes the difference. Rarely does grout come out like new since it is porous it will stain and stains don't come out unless you grind or acid etch or dissolve the grout to get to the bottom of the stain. Color sealing will change this challenge. ua-cam.com/video/W8pPbphkcBM/v-deo.html
I use nugrout it is a color sealant yes it is not paint . I said paint because someone had mentioned that they would paint there grout instead of cleaning it. Nugrout is a good product and yes it will cover permanent stains in the grout. If this color sealant or other color sealants are not applied properly they will peel. If the customer is not educated in the proper cleaning methods or cleaned the right way by a professional it will peel was my point. Once you apply a product like color sealant you are married to it , you don't just apply it you have to maintain it.
If the grout is cleaned correctly you shouldn’t need to color seal the grout. The customer usually does not want a different color of grout. They just want the grout they chose cleaned. Either way the grout and tile must be cleaned before you color seal.
I agree cleaning the grout is the best way to go
What does this service cost per sf?
The music doesn't help. verbal instruction would have been far more useful.
