George,
What is your process for removing candle wax?

I use a Namco Steamer to heat up and soften up and loosen the wax. Then use a drill brush or scraper to scrap wax off carpet

Never a problem getting wax off carpet but sometimes the red stain from red wax can be a problem

Need to use red stain remover for that but sometimes still very difficult to get the red out


I also have a Wagner Wall Paper Steamer, that can be used on wax or red stains, but it never gets out of my basement


Only problem with Namco Steamer is they don't last. They usually stop working after 2-3 years and yes I use distilled water in them

Orbitals, have to many moving parts.

"But they are sure pretty!"

Don't get me wrong they get the job DONE!

And DONE well!!!

But the KING is the 175!!!

Have you heard of Oxy-Dry from Canada

He is the KING of 175's

He has many videos on his YouTube channel using the 175

I use Dry Volatile Solvent if there isn't a lot of wax

Thick glob of wax or a lot of wax you need heat

Scrape the blob regardless of size. Bone scraper. Dry volatile on a towel and go to town. Catholics go crazy with wax!

Obviously you haven't run a cimex. I wouldn't run in residential, so it probably wouldn't be beneficial for you. It is the king of agitation!

Cimex.
I have, I've never owned one. { it was very efficient]
50% of commercial it would work well.

The 175 will not break down.

you can use it in tight areas

you can use it in open areas.

use it in homes

you can carry it

Plus, i'm a pad man [commercial or house Pads all the way!]
