I’ve only ever seen their ads on social media and haven’t heard anyone on this forum mention the company. Take that as you will.

I have no personal experience with it, or the company. However, I have been seeing ads and videos on their equipment on some of the FB Groups.

The stripinator really has my eye, basically a 4-bar with turbo nozzles. Looks like it would be awesome for stripping pavers and stamped concrete. I did some pretty large ones this year with just a single turbo-nozzle, don’t really want to keep doing it that way lol.

I would love to hear their explanation on how their spraybar can outperform another. What am I missing, isn’t it just the piping to go from the union to a nozzle? That’s like saying, buy this 1/2" pipe from me, it flows better than other pipes. For $245 I’ll pass. My $30 one works just fine

I agree, I don’t see the gain they claim from just another bar.

Maybe in terms of durability, SS vs aluminum maybe?

Maybe it’s a physics thing. People with 4 nozzles on a bar instead of passing over the first nozzle it’s being split in for directions at one point. The middle of the two bars. Then comes out without going over another nozzle hole? Idk man I’m not into rocket surgery. But I guess I can see it working.

@dperez mat have a good understanding lol

Seems like everyone is stuck on the bar, the claim to fame is the the housing able to accommodate TURBO Nozzles. You all know them right???

No I don’t

I guess you would have more contact time with the surface you are cleaning per revolution of the bar. 4 passes vs 2. IDK if it would really make a noticeable difference. I know when I upgraded to 4 nozzles on my double bar it made a huge difference in cleaning time.

Multipled 4 x’s over

I guess that explains why the housing is 2 feet deep on their surface cleaners…

Yes sir, just don’t forget you got to wear to right boots! :rofl:

I get the turbo nozzle surface cleaner, its a cool idea. I have issue with the topic of the post which is just the spray bar. They say just the spray bar outperforms any 2 or 4 nozzle bar on the market. How can you claim this and charge $245? What could actually be different?

We had a huge improvement as well. I still feel like we could move faster than we do now and wont have a adverse effect.

I would think it would clean better. I use to have a machine with a 3 bar mosmatic and it cleaned great. Would think it may clean more evenly. I’m about ready for a new one, may try it. Though I agree, the price is a little steep. The mosmatic 3 bar is about $150

This is Norm from(LA) lower Alabama. I clicked and viewed the “Stripinator” and unless it has turbo nozzles or something similar I don’t think it is worth buying @$2600.00 dollars on sale.Unreal pricing .If it did have that it would eat the surface up. I will stick to mine.

I agree with you.

I find their video to be a little misleading, but then again most marketing works that way. I would have liked to have seen a 4 bar vs a 4 nozzle bar for more of an apples to apples comparison. To be honest, I would love to see a 4 bar 8 nozzle SC for a fast one pass with lichen covered walks (no pre-post treat). That would be a time saver. That Turbo SC looked interesting to me, not that I have a use for it. I’m thinking it would have to be tuned way lower, otherwise it would fly away based on my personal turbo experience.

I purchased one yesterday, and have cleaned ~50ksq ft with it so far and it definitely cleans better than the original ground force bar. It leaves far less tiger striping.
