I have the aqua pro Vac and it’s seems like it’s being pushed by a lot of UA-cam detailers. The thing isn’t special I’ve been having it for 3-4 months now and a lot of the plastics components from the trigger to the button that latches on to the machine has broken or about to break. I recommend if you’re starting out to go with the bissell pro spot cleaner and just save enough for a mytee lite 8070 or something.
I'm looking into doing that, have 6hp DeWalt, going to hook up a thinner hose and extractor adapter. How did you attach water hose? I'm thinking Maybe attach a pump sprayer with distilled water, tape it to hose?
The one that I see is that a lot of youtubers are pushing this extractor as one of the “best bang for your buck” extractor. I don’t agree with them and it’s not right for that company to raise the price up 100 more after its popularity as raised. I would rather save more to get one that is better quality and can actually heat up the water. I mean, that’s just my opinion but all these detail youtubers are over hyping this product like crazy
All you need is a wet/dry vacuum. Been detailing for over 10 years. You don't need a shampoo extractor. Bucket and soap and a brush and a wet dry vacuum
The 3624 bissell spot clean is $160 and amazing. Detail geek has over 1 million subscribers and swears by it and does a great job. No need spending that much
Very true. My personal experience with the bissel SpotClean professional is 10/10. I’ve had it for 6 months now with plenty of use and no problems whatsoever. With that extra 250 to 350 dollars you save you can buy a lot of other detailing supplies
I literally just got mine a month ago and the nozzle broke the other problem I have with it is that the tank is too small if you are running a business you don’t have time to be dumping out the tank and refilling every 10 minutes. Detail geek swears by it because he is a UA-cam detailer. UA-cam detailers like him make most of their money by revenue on you tube and not from his own detailing business. He’s a good detailer no doubt but in reality you can’t take 12-16 hours on a job regardless if it’s extremely dirty. when your running a business you need to be quick with the vehicles.
I get amazing results with my $150 bissell but I don't dilute 10:1, I use degreaser, some carpet cleaner and maybe an ounce of laundry detergent and get 95% stains out
Bissell is horrible.... like riding a tricycle vs a motorcycle... if you want water extraction to prevent rust in car spend the money or have a professional do it... don't make the mistake I did.
@@Markkramr you probably lack experience, the bissell is fine, i've been using it monthly for 4yrs now, zero issues. not everyone uses tools the same way.
@@MahendraSingh-rp6er well when you have used a better product you can see the difference. I'm glad the Bissell works for you but I would still advise against it suction on the Bissell is good at best. Invest in quality do it right the first time is my experience.
I see your view point and it makes sense. When I went to the Aqua Vac site they were out of stock so my option was to get the Mytee HP 60. Smaller and easier FYI get in my car. It was expensive but I’m happy with it. I’m new but I’d like to know is do clients mind if a detailer uses their water on a mobile detail. I can’t get a van with water tank pump, generator and everything else at this time so that’s why I’m wondering about the water
Yes, I started my Mobile detailing bussines two weeks ago and as for now . None of the clients have an issue with me using their water and electricity. There's been a couple that asked me about my services but couldn't service them because they live in a apartment complex and can't use the water or make any type of noises. But go a head of you do a good job people don't mind using their water faucet neither electric outlet.
@@exceldetail what is working better for me is the Instagram page you can find me as @dlg_detailing you can go through my posts and see if you can take something from them.
I have been mobile detailing for a few years. Customers will not care if you use water or electricity. My main thing is get a hose/extension cord. Surprisingly a lot of people do not have hoses. And extension cord is kind of embarrassing to ask for since you should have one for mobile detailing. If you have any questions my IG is @norcalmobiledetailing
I'm honestly not trying to be a jerk so please don't take affense but , I just don't see any advantage to getting a non- heating carpet extractor when my wet/dry vac has the same if not more suction at removing the wet cleaning solution. I currently use a sprayer to apply a cleaning solution then I agitate with a drill brush and then use my wet/ dry vac to remove the wet solution. In your opinion what do I gain by getting the aqua carpet extractor???? Thanks for your answer! 🙂
There are so many of videos just like this recommending people spend 5 or 6 hundred dollars for a carpet extractor. Sure they are nice but I would argue that you can easily build an extractor that is just as good if not better with a 14 gallon Ridgid vacuum and a few accessories off Amazon and Harbor Freight. It will certainly hold much more water and cost less than half the price.
Get a mytee extractor, it’s heavy duty comes with different sizes and price points. It’s heated and has great lift. 9/10 detail shops will carry this. And for a steam machine nothing is more consistent than the Eurosteam brand in my experience.
I love this carpet extractor!!! if I’m detailer from home. I fill my water bucket up with hot water and that will help you dry quicker I think I pay like 375 for mine took him three days to get it to me
You can get seats clean with a good chemical, brush and towel! I have a Mytee 8070 3 and I’ve had a bissell for 3 weeks now and haven’t used the mytee at all, just don’t need it, there’s nothing that the bissell can’t get out, and I doubled the hose length on my bissell so I can leave it out of the car and extract the interior. So I might even sell my Mytee
People are converting shop vacs into extractors and for much less than the aqua pro. They are getting the same results but with versatility as you can select the power of vacuum and size of the tank that you want. I’m actually making my own as I don’t mind spending the money for a heated unit I just don’t use the extractor all that much.
I always suggest the spot bot pro heated to bank up for a 3 gal heated... the way I see it is if you can spend 500 on the aqua you can spend 700 on the ez spot heated... however the spot bot is the key to getting the nice one
Is the bissell carpet solution a good product to use for both carpets and seats? I’m not sure if I should use the one my bissell came with or wait and order another solution
@@manuelgomez4925 I use chemical guys fabric clean diluted 20:1 as a shampoo and then I use folex undiluted for stains, though you could probably dilute it 1:1
Fuck. 2 years back I've subbed your channel on another account. Watched some videos and so on. I just remembered the channel and searched. You havent sat still. Shit loads of subs now lol. Keep up the good work.
I've seen the clear upholstery attachment for shop vacs and wonder if that might have more lift than the affordable extractors. Of course it won't have the water injection. Maybe some one could do a comparison video.
So just a question. Since your spraying product out of a bottle and using a brush on a drill (I also do both) couldn’t you in theory use a good wet dry vac to suck the liquid back out?
Hey guys I run a mobile wash and detail business. I want to buy a bissel extractor but do you guys think they would overheat in 100+ degree weather. Is that possible
Don't think $500 on an extractor is necessary. If you use a drill brush, CG Lightning Fast or even SuperClean, along with the Bissell Spotclean Pro you mentioned, you'll get the exact same results. The Bissell is like $160 or something...cheaper end? I don't think so. I've used it on 20+ cars and have had fantastic results each and every time. I wouldn't splurge $500 on an extractor, just a personal opinion and speaking from experience!
My thoughts as well. I’ve had my eye on the Spot Clean Pro. Just haven’t pulled the trigger yet. I’m sure this extractor he’s using is great, but $500 seems a bit much.
@@clifhellner1493 trust me, SpotClean Pro is definitely a good buy. I was thinking about it for a while too. But scrubbing and blotting seats/carpet, versus using a drill and brush combo, followed by the Bissell is so worth it man! Obviously the price tag held me back for a while, but it's a good investment which will save you lots of time, and get you better results if you're detailing!
Hear ya. I don’t find the Spot Pro to be incredibly expensive, just haven’t been sure, as to what I have wanted. Just can’t see spending $500 on an extractor. Appreciate you sharing your experience with it. Thanks, man!
I have the $150 Bissell, no need to buy this $500 extractor, I just use a stronger dose of cleaner for heavy soiling, some detailers dilute 10:1 and give up and blame it on the cleaner or carpet, my Bissell has been good to me for 4yrs no prob
I can agree that a machine like this is awesome and will do a better job than say a Bissell but on the flip side i can get my Bissell into a lot tighter of spots than this unit. So where does the benefits out weigh the quality?
Hey Luke, Hello from the UK! Good video...How long does it take for the seats/carpet to dry after extraction? Is it less drying time with a more expensive machine?
Simon more expensive machines usually have better vacuum motors(more suction). I use a good fan to speed up drying. Usually dry in 45-60 min. I have a Mytee Lite 8070. Best machine for vehicle applications. I used to work for a company that sold carpet and upholstery cleaning machines and therefore have a fair amount of experience with these types of machines.
Some of these guys dilute cleaners 10:1 where it becomes water on heavy soiling and blame it on the carpet, my $150 Bissell is fine but I use a stronger dose of cleaner thats all
Can somebody help me out am from detroit and i got a bissel Spot Pro cleaner and i wantee to know about how long does it take for the seats too dry using the bissel cleaner. ?

I'll be that person that says it.
