FAQs - Tile & Grout Questions

Q – Listen Jim, is the SX-12 a good machine?
A - Yes, the SX-12 HARD SURFACE TOOL can be an excellent accessory to a heavy duty, high pressure portable or a truckmounted system. In fact it is the latest technology for cleaning tile and grout!
It works with an easy front-to-back and side-to-side motion, it even works on uneven stone, tile surfaces & smooth concrete. It is light-weight and I find it non-fatiguing: as it glides so easily over the floor.

Q – Jim, what kind of pressure do you need to operate it?
A - 800 psi. The SX-12 blasts soil and dirt from tile, grout, and smooth or rough hard surfaces. The rotary arm spins to create amazing soil blasting power working from 700 to 2,000 psi while the vacuum ports pick up all the waste. The SX-12 is ready to work with truckmount or heavy duty, high pressure portable carpet machines, pressure washers and vac systems.

Q - I am just wondering because I am starting to do work for a local company who installs tile and I might want that in the near future.
A - Tile and grout cleaning is very profitable. You'd be better to use a truck mounted unit, or a portable designed for the purpose. The portable units are very heavy, though.
