My idiocy was to use the AC "manual" mode to "shake" the filter a bit - like I do on a classic manual-clean-only non-SelfClean vacs once in a while. Just some (Starmix ?) have dual AC chambers with two filters to provide a more continuous air flow while cleaning the filters. From what I gather, all AC vacs work like this. Does work kinda like a pressure wave, not a "real" reverse flow there. The air volume in the vac and hose mostly absorb the shock so at the tool end the air is just "stopped/slowed" and then restarted. But if you disconnected the hose, you would not like it without a closed blast gate on. In the AC mode, there is only a short reverse burst every couple seconds, so the air flow does not really reverse on the hose end. Is a more violent action but on the same principle as the manual clean option on the Mini/Midi etc. The "shake the filter" is from the reverse air flow shockwave. If your job includes a ceiling, by all means get the planex!Ĭorrect. There is a small learning curve with the planex which might cancel the time savings on a 10 sheet job vs the smaller sanders you own. Provided your taping and smoothing coats went well you could probably skip the planex. If you are adding texture, flatness is not as critically important. As for the planex, one benefit that’s not been mentioned in this thread is the 225mm sanding pad will help smooth irregularities in the wall better than the smaller format sanders if your goal is a smooth wall finish. A quality applied mud job sanded without a cyclone and a CT26, I estimate 3 bags max due to clogging. 10 sheets is a small job as far as your tools are concerned. If you are relatively new to drywall then watch some taping you tube videos and do some practice joints on scrap material. ![]() A properly applied mud finish needs minimal sanding.
