Kenny, I dont own the mex but do use OP.

I have some commercial accounts with low foot traffic, some with a lot and one or two with greasy pit carpets.

I 'flush' the last one every 3rd cleaning.

Once you flush one you'll know better what the cycle should be.
aint gonna be the same on all of em.

Heck, the guys at padderland never flush.

I think the Cimex is awesome for large CGD that is moderately dirty. It is so fast and easy. We have some offices we encap with the Cimex every quarter. We plan to HWE these accounts yearly.

For restaurants and other heavily soiled accounts, I think HWE is the way to go.

Matt, if the grease pits are flushed really good, what are your thoughts on occasional padding?

I think it can be done so long as the padding/bonnett is done frequently enough. It just really depends on the account though.

The Cimex is a super efficient Scrubber, why not use it on every job? If you are going to HWE use it to apply you presray like mentioned above.
You might be surprised what the machine can do if you mix the Encap Clean DS @ 8oz per gallon! The best way to do a restoration cleaning is to use HWE!
