So after looking at many pictures, I finally figured out what was weird about my foam gun. IF i looked at the pictures right, at the very top of the foam gun (above the canister and above the metering type tool) theres a circular thing with a whole in it. I think everyone has this piece covered? Everytime I use the foam guy I have to put my finger on top of it to spray the foam. Is that normal or am I missing something? I love the gun and all, but if there is anyway to make it more comfortable to use I'm all for it!

Shhh, don't tell my parents but I visit them mostly so I can use the foam gun and the garage ;)

are you talking about the adjustment screw ???

brass center portion, where the adjustment rod (has several holes) moves thru. If missing, you are likely adding too much air to the mix.

Oh, I never got an adjustment screw... I've been holding my thumb over that hole :confused:

Can you take any pictures of the foam gun? I don't know if the screw can come out.. so you should have one.

I'll see if I can, maybe I'm just retarded.

You are missing the screw! Did you get that from us? If so give me a call tomorrow!

Got the screw in time and was able to help a friend detail a car with it, and then I found an outside faucet at my apartment complex, so I got to use it on my own car! Thanks Meghan!
:D

Now this gallon of ONR is going to last a LOT longer than expected :p
