I think they have them in the GTA too Mike. Only there, they dye them different colors and tie them around their heads?No , not the Sihks, the different gang members I see everytime I come to the GTA. We have them here in Calgary as well. ------------- Inventor of the Teflon Wand Glide and the Turboteck Rotary Air Duct Cleaners for TMs. |

Wow! I never considered that Doug. But come to think of it, Lee does do pitstops into Calgary from time to time as well. Could there be a connection? ------------- Inventor of the Teflon Wand Glide and the Turboteck Rotary Air Duct Cleaners for TMs. |

You have to remember which ones not to use at your customers house. Sniff each one as you remove it from the bag

it makes one look professional... but in all these years I've been working with other cleaners I noticed alot of them don't carry rags or drop cloths. or horse haired brushes or nothing... then they wonder why they can't do a good job... I guess people that come to this forum must be the best of the best, because most of the real life carpet cleaner I know are the worst of the worst ------------- www.mr-steamer.com |
