What it is
The Mytee 80-120 Prep Center S is an all-in-one detailing extractor for detailing bays, car washes, car dealerships and collision repair shops. It combines hot water extraction, dry vacuuming, chemical and shampoo application and blow drying in one machine, with a 120 PSI Viton-sealed diaphragm pump (1.3 GPM), a single 3-stage low-amp vacuum rated at 100 CFM and 130" of water lift, and a 1,200 watt REAL HEAT system that heats water up to 210°F.
Tanks and chemical bottles
Its solution and recovery tanks hold about 12 gallons each, and the solution tank fills from a faucet with the faucet fill hose. Three on-board chemical bottles are pressurized by a shop air source (30 PSI maximum), each with its own 25' coiled hose and adjustable spray gun. An air line output on the switch plate also lets you run an air brush for paint correction.
Power and chassis
The 80-120 runs on a single 25' 12/3 power cord and draws 20 A at 115 V, so plug it into a grounded 20 A outlet. Mytee rebuilt the Prep Center S on a slimmer chassis than earlier Prep Center models, with more tank capacity.
Moving it
10" foam-filled rear wheels and 4" locking front casters move it around the shop. The body is roto-molded polyethylene that resists rust and dents, and a built-in tray and storage pegs keep the tools in order between jobs.
Kit and warranty
The kit includes the 8400P Air Lite upholstery tool, a 25' vacuum and solution hose combo, a 25' dry vacuum hose, a dry vacuum claw, a crevice tool and a blower tool. Mytee's 8400GT Mytee Dry GT upholstery tool and 8700 crevice tool also fit, and the dry vacuum needs a disposable G008 Piglet filter in place, sold separately. The 80-120 is covered by Mytee's warranty: 1 year parts and labor, 2 years on major components such as pumps, vacuum motors and heaters, and 10 years on roto-molded housings and tanks.
