Turned out to be a bust.

After using my BLACKFIRE Quart Foamaster Foam Gun lastnight to wash my car, I had this great idea to try and use it for some less "wet" foam... like to clean the seats.

My normal method is to make suds in a bucket, grab the suds with my hands and rub them on, scrub with brush if needed, then shop-vac out.

I thought maybe I can use compressed air (at 60-70psi) through the foam gun and create some dry foam.

I put about 3oz of water and 3oz of STP All Purpose Cleaner in the quart container and was going to try and foam up my old sneakers. WELL the air must not be enough force to get the solution out of the container.


ANYONE have a different trick to cleaning seats/Carpets without an extractor?

My two cents and I'm out.

I assume that you're a fan of 'encapsulating' foam, to suspend the entrapped dirt.

Foam of this nature must be worked from within, as opposed to being laid upon the surface.

Happy detailing...going 10-7...:autowash:
