Hello! Thanks for watching. Great question. The thin cardboard-like lid on your aluminum takeout containers is NOT designed for use in the oven. These lids are usually coated with a thin layer of foil to help keep the contents warm and to provide some level of insulation during transportation to and from the store or during delivery. They are NOT typically oven-safe. Using them in the oven could lead to burning or even catching fire, especially at higher temperatures. If you want to reheat food in the oven, it's safer to remove the cardboard lid and cover the aluminum container with aluminum foil instead. Always check the packaging or manufacturer's instructions if available, as they might provide specific guidance.

@@ImperialDade Thank you for the detailed answer! It is much appreciated. I searched everywhere for this information and I couldn't find so I figured I would just leave a comment and hope someone might answer. Thank you again!

Hello! Thanks for watching. While some electrostatic sprayers should only be used with their manufacturers’ line of disinfectants and sanitizers, most electrostatic sprayers can be used with any products that have been approved for use by the EPA. So, that said, you will need to confirm with the manufacturer to identify the chemical(s) approved for use in your sprayer.

Hello and thanks for watching our content! When it comes to rinsing floor pads, it's best to use luke warm or cold water. This helps to preserve the integrity of the pad's fibers and adhesives, ensuring they last longer and perform effectively. Hot water, on the other hand, can weaken these materials over time, leading to quicker deterioration. So, for optimal maintenance and longevity of your floor pads, always opt for cold water when rinsing.

Hello! Thanks for watching. Great question! The machines are similar. Both have a 28, inch path, 28-gallon tanks, restorative mode and quick clean mode. The ES4000 stands out because it can also be used as a sweeper. It has a dry sweep mode that allow you to pre-sweep carpets. Now you can use one machine for both sweeping and extracting. The R14 is only an extractor. You can also pre-treat a carpet with it as well, although we don’t really endorse that process. Finally, it has a very unique recovery spray feature for dry sweeping that actually turns the dust into water. This way you can just empty the water and not have to worry about the dust getting all over the recovery tank. To learn more about the difference between the two machines, schedule a time to talk with one of our Equipment Specialists in your area: www.imperialdade.com/help-center/general-inquiries?pathname=/

Hello! Thanks for watching. Both the Doodle Mop and Doodle Scrub can both be used on any hard floor surface whether it’s epoxy and tile or hardwood and concrete. The task you’re trying to accomplish will determine which one you should use. Typically, the Doodle Mop is used to wash the floor using a replaceable or disposable microfiber pad and the Doodle Scrub can be used to wash a floor but with the different pads available. Doodle Scrub can also be used for stripping finish, doing restorative scrubbing on tiled floors with grout. The Doodle Scrub is a little heavier than the Doodle Mop so it will do a better job when doing a deep clean. The only things interchangeable would be the handles whether you have the corded versions or battery versions. The pads for a Doodle Scrub cannot be used on a Doodle Mop because of the size difference.

Hello! Thanks for watching. Scrubbing the baseboard wet will give you better results. You can use a PH neutral cleaner because it does not have to be rinsed. You can also use something a little stronger if needed and depending on what the baseboard is made of like a tile and grout cleaner or some kind of degreaser. Keep in mind tile and grout cleaners and most degreasers need to be rinsed. If it’s one of the vinyl baseboards you’ll want to use just the neutral cleaner. With any cleaner you use, be sure to check the manufacturer’s recommendation for proper mixture and what surfaces it can be used on.

Hello! Thanks for watching. Great question. Burnishing your dining hall floor only once a month may lead to a decrease in the finish's appearance over time. To maintain the desired level of shine and protect the finish, it's important to burnish as frequently as needed based on foot traffic and wear. Regular burnishing helps preserve the finish and keep the floor looking its best.

@@ImperialDade thank you so much for the information. With it I might be able to set aside time each week to do it.

Hi there! Thanks for watching. The best floor pad will depend on what you are trying to do. Each floor pad color is designed for a specific cleaning procedure.

Hi there! Thanks for watching. We're sorry to hear you're having trouble with your machine. We understand how frustrating that can be. Hopefully, we have the fix. First, verify that the recovery tank gasket is securely in place and in good condition. Also, ensure that the cap on the drain hose is tightly screwed on. If the issue persists, try removing the suction hose and flushing it with water, as there might be a partial blockage. If these steps don't resolve the problem, don't hesitate to contact your local Imperial Dade service center for further assistance.

Hi! Thanks for watching! Concrete has an alkaline surface, while neutralizers are acidic. Using a neutralizer regularly or in large amounts can potentially damage the concrete over time. For routine cleaning, it's best to use an all-purpose cleaner designed specifically for concrete surfaces. If you need to neutralize specific stains or residues, use the neutralizer sparingly and follow the manufacturer’s guidelines.

Hello! Thanks for watching. We are sorry to hear you are having trouble with your floor pads. The pads you received might be larger than 12 inches, even though they were labeled as such. For your Oreck Orbiter, 12-inch pads are indeed the correct size. If the pads are too large, you can trim them down to the correct size using a sharp pair of scissors. This should help ensure they fit properly and work effectively with your machine.

Hello, and thanks for watching! Great question. Waxing over a floor before the first coat is dry can lead to several issues: Poor Adhesion: The second coat may not adhere properly to the first coat, leading to uneven coverage and potential peeling or flaking. Streaks and Bubbles: The wet first coat can mix with the new layer, causing streaks, bubbles, or a cloudy appearance. Extended Drying Time: The drying process can be prolonged, as the underlying layer is still wet and trapped moisture can cause complications. Damage to Finish: The overall finish can be compromised, resulting in a less durable and less aesthetically pleasing surface. To ensure the best results, it's crucial to allow each coat to dry fully before applying the next.

Hello! Thanks for watching. Great Question! Without seeing a picture of the floor, the general rule with epoxy floors is that a red pad should clean it well with the correct chemical. A blue pad may work but could scratch the epoxy. If you decide to try to the blue pad, make sure to test it it in a small, inconspicuous area first. Epoxy-finished floors are fairly soft, so you must be cautious of the pads used. That said, the floor cleaner is also a factor. Never use a heavy-duty degreaser as this could also damage the floor. It can be tough to remove black marks, but with an all-purpose cleaner and a red pad, you should get a decent result.

Hi! Thanks for watching! Yes! You can absolutely use a Doodle Scrub on epoxy floors. The blue turf pad shown in the video would be best pad for the job. However, a red pad would work as well.

Thanks for the video! I have similar situation with epoxy flooring . But my question is what solution to use with doodle scrub on epoxy flooring?

How do I get in touch with you or consult with specialist before purchasing? I am in NJ.

@@arnoldwilsonsen492 Hi! Great question. You can reach out to the location nearest you: www.imperialdade.com/locations/all We have a location in Jersey City, NJ (201-437-7440) and Bordentown, NJ (888-946-2671).

@@arnoldwilsonsen492 Hi! We used an acidic grout restorer for this demo. However, this chemical should only be used as a last resort as it can damage the grout if left on the floor for more than a few minutes. Always start with an alkaline degreaser that when left to dwell for a few minutes and then scrub you will get great results 95% of the time.

Hi there! Thanks for watching. Unfortunately, an automatic floor scrubber is not the best machine to remove wax from your floor. The machine does not have enough pressure to adequately remove finish. We recommend a swing machine for floor stripping. Aside from reduced pressure, using an automatic floor scrubber to strip wax from the floor can result in machine damage because there is now way to properly clean she stripper and wax residue from the bottom of the machine leading to mechanical failure.
