The final version will have the black sleeve mated to a black swivel cuff and a green vacuum hose..

I was thinking of calling it The GreenGlides upholstery tool which is what most will call it naturally, but Jim thinks it should have a snazzier name like the Chosen wand



How about:

The Jubilee: In the Old Testament, the Jubilee was a year of freedom, restoration, and returning things to their original state. This name would perfectly represent a tool that cleans and restores worn fabric, making it feel new again.



Fwiw, there's a internal fitting inside the head that's of a degree that's never been made before, that we'll need to create and manufacture.

It's exciting to create something, essentially from scratch, considering the titanium head with it's many tweaks, has also never been made before..

There's going to be a substantial demand for this tool and at this point Jim and I will be the only distributors

After a while I may entertain the possibility of a large distributor buying them in quantities, If it doesn't get knocked off by then .

$7million Upper scale house that is a second home for these people.. They complained about why we were more expensive than the last cleaner.. It's because we have to fix the screw-ups associated from the previous.. The cleaning is easy, if you know what your doing..

We are considered the "Fixers" for other cleaners.. If they mess it up You can't fix the rusting from the staples..
HydroF or phosohoric doesn't do it for you?

It will, but you'll be chasing your tail.. I didn't cause it, and I know when to tuck in my cape.. :lol:

They barked about our price, saying it's way more expensive than the last cleaners............ Call them back if you were happy with the results..:winky:

We initially declined to do the work because the owners were trying to nitpick our invoice, the property manager fought to have us do it..

You'd have loved a Hydrokentic tool.. Only if they made it in plastic due to the weight.. It would glide over fabric, but you still had to watch your pressure..
The Hydrokinetic is still what I use to this day (heavy as a tank) and tried the SS for many years, although just not sold on ever buying another one. Most likely going to go with the Butler/ prochem one when the HK bites the dust.
