make sure its not gumed up by hard water,

or take a wash cloth and rubberband and cover the nozel, itll still drip but usually its cooled down by then.

you are not on the site enough...that willie steamer is all over the place on here..blowing it hot steamy breath everywhere...

[Guest tintgod]

to be serious...I dont use a steamer...I sweat most of the time...but then again..my price for removal is so high..I dont have that many removals

[tintnfool]

Those cheaper ones spit water from the get-go, even when they are new.

Alright then. I was thinking about $35 for a cheapie. The $50 one was the Wagner 705. I know thier paint sprayer suck so I naturally thought the same would be true for their steamers. I gotta go to Sears this week so I'll see about the shark.

I've used the Jiffy and the Shark, there is no comparison...In my experience, the Shark (or steam buggy) is not nearly as good as the Jiffy. Sure the Jiffy costs more, but the time savings will soon make it pay for itself. The Shark and Steam buggy can only hold a pint or so of water, and must be allowed to cool before it can be refilled.

The Shark and Buggy put out steam into a tiny area whereas the Jiffy (with the proper attachment) put out a larger diameter area...about a half dollar size as apposed to a dime sized spot of the Shark and Buggy.

Jiffy steamer wins hands down in my experience.

TD! I have a shark and it works OK for removal most of the time . But I have used a Jiffy steamer at another shop and it made my shark look like a very pathetic toy. Ordering Jiffy steamer this week for PPF but I am sure my shark is going around just incase my Jiffy goes tango uniform.

For those of you that might not know Tango Uniform = ***s up.
