"strange but relevant post for us wammers! lol question!"
Love you, too
okay, so for Christmas, all i really wanted was a shop vac. to help me with cleaning my garage and all things wam related. a "wet dry" vac. well, my roomie got me one and then another family member got me one too!! not knowing he had got me one as well!
both are really great wet/dry shop vacs. both were bought on super cheap black Friday sales so, taking them back is kinda like "ehhhh, do i really wanna have store credit in harbor freight?" so, the only problem i have is space. do i keep both of them???
also, if you use one for cleaning up wam messes can you give me some tips for cleaning it out?? please?? feel free to inbox me bc i know a lot of people are having sales and this forum is promoting that, me included! so, i don't want to take up space on here with replies on a forum post.....if you use one in your wam fun, help me out!! do i keep one? both? try to sell one on facebook or something??? i have no idea what to do or the upkeep of using one to clean up particular wam messes
thanks so much and hope everyone is relaxed and having a great end of the year! let your resolutions have some mess in them!

thanks so much and hope everyone is relaxed and having a great end of the year! let your resolutions have some mess in them! In the area where you have your messy adventures, keep that one vacuum. The other one can be elsewhere. Maybe you can label them, to not get them mixed up. One is H for "house" and one is F for "fun," or W for "wam."
Sounds like you had a sweet Christmas haul. Good for you.

No, this is a very legit question. The messy forum is just for that, all things messy related, including cleanup. It's not supposed to just be a wall for producers' store advertisements.
I've used shop vacs for years to fight back basement flooding. Rule number 1 is to make sure you pull out the filter for wet vacuuming. Generally speaking though, they are probably not going to do very well with thicker things like mud or your mystery substance. Stuff like that will probably burn out the motor. I've burned out fairly heavy duty ones sucking up probably far less questionable things than you. Also, I like Harbor Freight, but they aren't known for the highest quality stuff.
The good news is you got two. Beat the hell out of the first one and you'll know what it's limits are.
Also also, happy Christmas Ms. J!

are there certain messes you have not been able to clean up with the vacuum? i mean, honest to goodness, i would love it for messes that take up lots of space, like shaving foam slime, or savory messes that are more condiment based bc omg.....when i do huge messes....it is SO INCREDIBLY HARD for me to lift all of that at once by myself. lifting it to the bathroom to try to flush or whatever is BACK BREAKING and my back is effed up enough, as is, and i need a backiotimy from doing all this pole training! shooo weee. i am strong but sometimes, i am just NOT strong enough for those huge messes....woooo. and i really wanna bring the noise this year with some heavy duty messes!!
i already have SO MANY IDEAS!!More BTS, clips, messes, wetlook+fetish on my OF!

Is this some kind of trick question? Why would anyone leave a credit there when you could immediately use it to buy a lathe, chain hoist, sand blaster, drill press, or any number of power tools.
We use to use a 5 gallon tank to occasionally change out the mud in our rasslin' pool back in the day. If what you are sucking up is too thick, just add some more water and swish it around until it's liquidy and suckable. Since we were in the middle of a concrete jungle in downtown Tacoma, we just emptied the vac down the storm drain at 3:00am when nobody was looking. That's usually not a good idea, but in the northwest, the storm systems get flushed out with a trillion gallons of rain every few days, so it never cause a problem.

i already have SO MANY IDEAS!! The only "messy" thing I've used one to clean up was my flooded basement and it did great sucking up the water and holding it, then I just flipped it over in my yard lol. If your plan is to flush all the mess, suck it up in the vacuum and then take the top off and you can scoop it out with a cup or pitcher. Having one with wheels would make things a lot easier too.
If you were to find the same model sold at walmart, you can take it there because it was given as a gift so no receipt. As long as it is sold there, you can get a Walmart card or store credit. Come on who can't use walmart credit.

one was bought at harbor frieght and one was bought at walmart. i DO want to use one, for reals, in my garage bc i swear to god, i cant keep the cobwebs away!! and brooms do not cut it....plus, there is constant dirt going on in there....i cannot STAND my garage being like that. drives me insane! so i would like to use one, on the garage. under all the shelves and all that. so, if people think i should use one JUST for wamming maybe i should keep both?? but, if i can just take out the filter and use it to suck up some messes, hose that bad boy out and then let it dry out thoroughly, i am down with that!
if anyone else has been able to do that, and it dries out well, and you can use it for other household stuff!! let me know!! i do not understand why it seems like all the dust and cobwebs in the world end up in our garage! i cant handle it!! it really does drive me insane. lol. first world problems. i am BLESSED to live in a home with cool people and HAVE a garage to store a few of my things....i just want my things not covered in dust and cobwebs all the time.

Ha! I'll have to send you pics of the inn I live in. You will think your house is spic n span by comparison. Maybe take the Walmart one back. Worse comes to worse, you can always use the credit to buy another shop vac.

thanks so much and hope everyone is relaxed and having a great end of the year! let your resolutions have some mess in them! If you are using one for wet messes make sure to remove the paper filter but use the foam filter for wet messes. keep the other one set up for the dry pickup (cobwebs,dust) that way you one is dedicated to wet messes, the other dry and your not constantly trying to put a dry filter on a wet machine. As long as you use one for wet, and one dry they should last a while.
I'm going to completely skirt the shop vac issue and offer this:
If you own your home and don't plan on moving any time soon, why not set up a 'spare bathroom'? You could have plumbers set up a shower and just a drain for a toilet. Then, you could ceramic-tile the floor, and have it slope slightly towards the toilet drain. Notice I did not say to have a toilet at all, just the drain. You'd need a cover on it, but when it's time for fun, everything on the floor would be able to be hosed down into that drain. The cost of set up would be something to deal with, but you'd never have to lift used messes again. If you ever sold your house, you could put a $100 toilet on that drain to add value to the house and make it look like a 'normal' bathroom. But until then, the whole room could be a foot deep in mess, and it would all go down the drain once you open the cover. A small shower in the room would cost very little extra.
