Man that was a crap load of foam. I wonder what soap he was using??

that was zaino Z7 soap...he has one with the chemical guys citrus wash also..

this is the citrus wash foam..his ratios for the foam is 1 oz to 31oz water..and he thinks he can cut it down more....

I make up a gallon at a time and my ratio is 2oz to a gallon with 901..I do not like the foam to be so clingy like shaving cream..but foamy with a lite run off on the paint...the real foamy stuff is very hard to rinse off...

R1DC2..I use mine on a 1750 PSI karcher....you need to get the adapter for the bayonet fitting on the Karcher...any power washer supply will have it...I got mine at Lowes last year ..they had a bunch of wand adapters then

Whoops, problem. Yeah Surfer all of the quick connects and threads are different for high pressure and garden hose hook up. The foam gun is garden hose type thread. I'm going to stop by a hardware store to see if there's an adaptor.
This could get risky. Your pressure washer might blow it to Seattle.

Haha, my pressure washer is pschyo strong, think it would blow it apart on low pressure.

PM me if you want some info on getting a pw foam gun. I have one that is very durable, and works great.

That video is awesome! Looks like he is spraying latex paint!

Thats awesome, I want one!

i am waiting for my foam cannon/lance attachment to arrive from the U.K., its made to directly connect to electric karcher pressure washers without the need for an adapter to fit the bayonnet fitting....hopefully it will be as good as people have told me about...

I'm that handsome bald guy with the foam cannon in those videos.

The first video was, as Al stated, Zaino, the second was CG's Citrus Wash N Gloss.

I've tested a total of about 15 or so shampoos now, and my favorite combination is 2 ounces of DP Extreme Foam Formula with 1 capful of CG's CW&G. The DP Extreme Foam gives the foam (duh) and great lubrication, while the CW&G provides awesome cleaning power, gloss, and water spot resistance.

Using this combination of shampoos (and a great LSP), I'm able to wash my car and get it completely clean without ever touching the paint with a wash mitt. If the car is really dirty or has hand prints on it, I'll use a boar's hair brush, but other than that, it's a touchless wash.

Pressure rinse
Foam and let it sit
Pressure rinse
Foam and let it sit (i'll use the BHB here if the car really needs it)
Rinse

I have two water softener filters, so I can either let it air dry if I don't mind a few water spots, or I use a WW to dry.

Another option for you guys that have Karcher pressure washers, or anyone that has a pressure washer that this foam cannon will not connect directly to: buy a new high pressure gun. Not a whole pressure washer, just the gun. Make sure it has a threaded female end on it, and the cannon will fit.
