Hi All,

Heard a story today of a guy using an Extracta scrubba on carpet tiles( not sure of the backing ), it warped all the tiles and he ended up with a floating floor!. I've used one myself on carpet tiles this has never happened to me. Anyone no why?

Iv used mine on tiles many a time and no probs.

when i had one it was the weapon of choice of hugea tiles, never had a problem even if they were not stuck down.

It probably just means the tiles weren't glued down and the backing swelled during cleaning - they should go back down within 24 hours.

Im doing a job soon in a drinks shop with carpet tiles and lots of black marks every where .Im am thinking of hitting it with hwe and turn the heat but i am thinking about the tiles coming unstuck and turning up at the edges WHAT DO YOU THINK Des

wouldnt think you would have a problem mate, i used my heat up full on the porty but it only went to 70, what sort of heat have you got available?

Truckmount and as hot as i want  .its because of the black marks every where but it could be just drinks that have being spilt and its the sugar from that Is to much heat going to make the tiles come unstuck and turn up at the edges
