See the Forte WCG22 22″ planetary concrete grinder and the F36 3-motor HEPA dust vac on a real garage floor prep, then get a full walkthrough of both machines in the shop. If you’re shopping for a concrete grinder and dust extractor for epoxy coatings, polished concrete, or surface prep, this video covers what to expect before you buy.
On the job, we ground a 2-car garage (about 450 sq ft) in roughly 30–35 minutes with soft-bond 18–20 grit diamonds, running off a generator with the F36 keeping the dust down. Back in the shop, Trent from Columbus Epoxy Products goes over every part of both machines: power requirements, generator sizing, filter cleaning, HEPA filters, the control panel, flip-down weights for extra head pressure, and the tooling the heads accept.
