    New foam gun soap

    I was lucky enough to try out the new foam gun soap and my first statement is wow! The soap was everything Meghan said it was and much more. It truly was snowing in Alabama in June. The soap had lots and lots of foam and it have a very slck feeling that my mit slid across very easly. I used it on my wifes car which was fairly dirty and had lots of bug guts and road grime all over it, the soap had no problem cutting through all my wifes car had to offer. In my opion this new foam gun soap is ready for release and I'm ready for a full bottle of this soap so I can use it on my truck.

    I also got one of the sampels and was going to write up a review. I love this soap. Blows Meguiar's Gold Class away! Very thick solution, and creates foam galore! I have to learn how to maximize the results, but for now, I am impressed and will be ordering a bottle when they go on sale. Highly recommended for foam gun users! Pics to follow soon.

    1/2 - 1 oz of "secret" soap in foam gun.

    Probably 5 or more oz of Meg's Gold Class. Having some fun.

    Question about the foam gun. What is the deflector for?

    I guess I am going to keep it just in case. I love the soap, and I guess I am going to place ANOTHER order.

    ya, i threw it away the first time i used the gun. I couldn't get the thing to attach, so i kinda held it on the tip and turned the gun on. all that came out was some soapy water and no foam. I switched over the the good tip and tons of foam came out. That's when i threw the deflector away.

    Thanks Neo. 5-6 ounces is a lot of soap. How much water do you add and how long does it last? Do you have the 1/2 gallon?

    I premix my solution by the gallon. 5 ounces of soap per gallon of solution regardless of what the soap says for a dilution ratio. I add the water to a milk jug and then add the soap. let it sit for a bit and the next time i'm in the garage i'll shake it up.

    i use a 1/2 gallon canister on my gun. i'll go through 1.5-2 canisters of solution per wash. if the car is particularly dirty, i've used up to 4 complete canisters before.

    You would consider yourself someone who uses A LOT of soap to get the job done though right. I like the idea of your premix. You have all the good ideas. Stealing this one if it is ok.
