What is the "biggest river place"??
Other things I have caught on here is Chemical Guys. My thoughts, although not near the experience as any member on here, is today you can't lose no matter what product you reach for, the detail world is bonkers huge. Now again, members on here have tried hours and 100's of products I have never seen. That is why I rely and respect the comments and direction from everyone on here, they have "been there done that". I have never tried a CG product so have no working opinion or feedback, but I have noticed possibly no other brand with as much straight up "nope" as them. I always wondered about people's reasons for them? Cause they are more of a 'marketing brand' than a 'detailing brand'??
Sorry to derail the topic of the thread a bit, just always wondered these things while floating around the forums.
So for a further derail
I doubt I could try every product in CGs line in my lifetime , not that I would want to
I’m not saying they are bad, they aren’t
I just never came across one of their products that stopped me in my tracks and made me think, wow, this is a game changer
Multiply that by many of the other “yup, we got that in 6 scents and flavors” companies and you have more choices than anyone could ever possibly try
As you say we rely on input and criticism and praise from others to guide our choices
I have seen brands over the years where I thought “cool, they are small and focused and concentrating on a small core of exceptional products” and I turn my back and bam, they are the next CG
I love simplicity and I cringe at complexity
I’m just too old is the problem
I have turned into my dad

It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

While definetly annoying, I think you will be happy with the cart overall.
One thing I have learnt over the last couple of years is similarities between brands, especially in regards to detailing accessories like that detailing cart. In other words, the big companies are buying their stuff from another big company.
Take this detailing seat for example -
So while Griots have their version, so do Adams, Maxshine, Economax...................

Yeah designed for 16oz bottles….. you would think the would figure out to make there 22oz bottles smaller to fit there detail cart, creeper……..
I’d actually prefer 16oz bottles and less product due to there size.
One of the things I do prefer about Adam’s. They seem to get carts and creepers from same manufacturers.

Honestly I will probably buy an Active for cars and leave the Greenworks for household chores
I am curious about the 1.1 orifice "causing harm"
Is it a matter of back pressure stressing the pump?
I am glad you are happy with your setup, it can make such a huge difference in the whole washing experience
With a to small of the orifice the PW produce a higher psi than it can handle. For an example I have 240V electric outlets here in Sweden as standard. So my Kärcher K7 PW is rated at 2600psi and 2.6gpm if I remember correctly with the bar and L/Minutes converted. So I tried an orifice 1.1mm in the foamcannon and it started to pulsing it out on and off on and off. I can go up to 1.3mm orifice also but it draws a little more chemichal then. But it wont go over the highest psi it can handle but more than it does with the original PW lance on it gives. The same with if you just buy any quick release nozzle to a PW. The first ones I bought the PW pulsing. The second set they where to large so the psi where quite low for me. So I order one where you chosed the nozzle size of the specs of your PW and the 40 angle. It where perfect for my PW and a huge difference with the second nozzles I bought. So you really don't know what the nozzle sizes that comes with your quick release nozzles. Looking for ones that has the specs for just your PW can be a thing to be doing. As it can save your PW from going on a higher psi than it should and break earlier this way. Or you get nozzle sizes that are to big and the effectiveness don't get as high as it could be. It's a science with the right sizes of orifice and nozzle. I think you can see a lot of these 2 charts on MTM website if I remember correctly. It's a chart with psi that you want and then follow it out to the gpm your PW gives you. And there you see the size to get you there.
