Impressive review. I love the way you point out the little details that make such a big difference in your reviews. Great job!
The new Armor All Ceramic Car Wash is good stuff. i recommend you trying it. thats the only armor all product ill use.
aye man, ive been watching a lot of your videos and straight up you have helped my detailing flow and process and even pointed me toward great products. Thank you for your content
Thank you for all the reviews you do to make washing cars easier
You are the #1 salesman of all detail products
That 1.1 orifice is what we want that thick shaving cream foam is the business! Wicked upload man thank you so much!
Beautiful car in the background,nothin beats classics
Great review. I think this is the second review of this foam cannon and both have been good!
This man here is probably one of the top SALESMAN of CZcams land.
Like the video! Never heard the word orifice used that much outside of an anotomy/physiology class! Great video!
Great video and review appreciate all the great content.
I really don’t use ArmorAll products either but I might be interested in the foam canon, thanks Josh 👍❤️
Very nicely done video! Thanks, and I'm going to subscribe as I like the time and effort you put in to do these videos.
Impressive review. Nicely done👍👍👍👍👍
That's was a great review....awesome job
Armor All v.s Harbor Freight foam cannons battle !!!!
Just got this one and saw a big difference then the POS one that my pressure washer came with haven’t changed they orifice yet but looking forward to the shaving cream thick foam thanks for the content you put out
Got this Cannon 3 weeks ago and haven't used it yet, good to know it's going to work well.
I bought mine in Canada from Canadian Tire for $59.99 that would be about $45 usd.
But mine came with a pint sized bottle of ArmorAll Snow Form with the Cannon as a kit.
Mjjc cost that much..
I've bought better one's on Amazon with more features for under $30...this cannon is worth $19.99
Being a machinist I can actually see the difference in the orfice excellent job lil brother you do a hellava job
Nice review, thanks for sharing.
The reason for the shape at the bottom is strength of the container, the beveled end makes a stronger overall receptacle.
Thank you for the tips. For those who had trouble unscrewing the brass connector, just warm it up with a blow torch for about 30 seconds!
Awesome review definitely answers my questions. Your link on Amazon has armor all soap is that any good?
Great channel, thanks.
I bought one too works great
Great content bro
I thought you did a fantastic job of showing the foam cannon.
I’ve not bought one yet but I’m definitely interested in the armor all
Thanks
Its a great choice for the price!
Good job on your review ty
Thanks for the review Josh. Also, when is the giveaway ending for the Greenworks 1700?
Great video
Great video bro. I would be very careful recommending using the smaller orifice insert unless they have a cheaper style pressure washer. The higher end larger gpm ones will burn the engines up using that orifice. Just a heads up.
Yeah anything above 1600PSI don't use the 1.1mm
@@NoOne56488 it’s the gpm you got to look out for.
@@NoOne56488 I got a Hart 1700 electric. It’s only 100 more is it ok or just not risk it?
Great review. I was wondering what soap and water ratio do you use with Mr. Pink?
Armor All have probably the best streak-free glass cleaner. Even in direct sunlight, it will flash right off where more "premium" brands will streak without doing a second wipe
Could you post a link to Amazon for it?, thanks.
Mornin Josh! When I first saw this on social media I searched high n low for it. I even reached out to Armorall directly. I could never find it so I quit looking. Now I'm pressure washerless...😂😂... cant do it now... BTW Josh, Armorall's new Ceramic glass cleaner is pretty good and their Glass cleaner in the clear bottle is good too. Take 'r easy Josh👍
Found one at Menard's yesterday. Of all places!
@@kcoop99 sweet!
I'm sure you saw a few weeks or so ago I posted about this one on one of your other videos. Less than $30.00 bucks at Menard's around me. And the measurements on the bottle are in the useful measurements of ounces at least here in the US and they're very accurate. Holds 40+ ounces. Unfortunately the twice as expensive and then some MJJC doesn't have ounce measurements on the bottle.
I’m buying one tomorrow seems better than Amazon one
Nice review! If it came with a brass weighted tip on the straw it would be almost perfect!
Lee I'm a MacGyver guy and find a stainless nut that just easily screws onto the hose and WALA weighted.
Excellent
Great job on the videos. Question. If u don't use Armor All products. What do u use ? I'm starting my business and any advice would be greatly appreciated
thx for doing this review! Do you know if the nozzle can be taken off to see if a filter can be placed in there or replaced? I'm wondering how the armorall cannon would work with the three layer filter.
I was looking for a pressure washer today. Needless to say, i subscribed
Ha thanks!
Nice review. I have a question what do you suggest for a hose I just bought a pressure washer from Costco 3200 PSI but not sure what kind of hose to get . I know you mentioned the flex Zila and another brand but I notice it’s for up to 3100 PSI . Can you help with any suggestions thanks .
I had this foam cannon and it worked great for maybe 1 summer. Then the top would get loose and the container would fall off. Apparently it is a common issue and a lot of people complain about it. It's like the plastic loses it's grabbing threads over time.
hey, that's why I came to read reviews....worried they didn't all do this and I got a lemon. guess not
Same here, I have this same issue. Wouldn’t recommend it for all the time use. Container would tend to fall off the head and spill all the soap which is an annoying feeling. Couldn’t fully tighten either because of the plastic crossing over the thread. Creates a lot of foam though.
San diego? Sick brooo i live in lemon grove always detailing cars here at home 🤙🤙💯💯🔥🔥
Ive tried the new ceramic glass cleaner and its great and cheap, last longer than the rain x stuff.
I have used other foam cannons where the clear hose in the bottle never sits at the bottom and you can hear it shift around if you shake it. The Armor All foam Cannon sits right at the bottom of the bottle no shifting around I was wondering if it was actually picking up enough of the solution. Does yours sit right at the bottom to the point you can see the hose from underneath almost as if no fluid can pass through? Was thinking of slightly cutting mine.... Sorry for the long comment🤕
13:51 sounds like me after i eat at Chipotle
What quick connect did you use for the cannon? I bought the set you previously recommended but none of them fit the cannon
Love the blue car, what year is it and what's under the hood cos it see traction bars?
this looks like a great product I've read that you can use this foam cannon with just a hose pipe have you tried it that way is it still just as good I'm guessing not as thick foam
Great video series - Thanks!! So you've mentioned 1.1 orifices several times - got it. Where do you order them, directly from the mfg of the foam cannon? Are they universal or cannon specific?
Thanks
he linked them in the notes above - 1.1 mm orifice for foam cannon - amzn.to/3wJGhJLQuick Connects for Pressure Washer - amzn.to/2SFKPhX
Not sprayer related question here. What was the thinking that went into that EMT pipe on that wall? As a retired electrician who spent over 20 years piping homes in Chicagoland glad pipe was used but why the roller-coaster .
Hey! just bought this foam canon, but I ran into the issue using a 1900 psi simoniz pressure washer. Im not too knowledgeable on what adapter I would need to connect this foam cannon to the simonz pressure washer gun. Any help would be appreciated
Damn it work great
Do you usually put soap in your pressure washers injector with the foam cannons or just the foam cannon?
Does the orafice 1.1 change out have the better foam results when using a hose also?
Noticed you are using craftsman 2100 psi, is that your new go to pressure washer?
i have the same one....im not an expert but it seems fine to me and i use it on my boat, wifes Tahoe, truck and 4 wheeler. it only cost like $39.99 at O'riellys a year ago here in Alaska.
This foam cannon with 2 bottles soap kit for $29 at amazon. I just got my mtm kit(foam cannon & washer gun) and also griots brilliant finish(which will be returning) delivered today. Do they worth that much money over this Armor all foam cannon?? I will be using with my $599 Ryobi 40v 1500 psi whisper series delivered last week(bought after watching your review on older version)for my car washing for weekend hobby.
I bought one of these after watching this vid. I am using Adam's Polishes Car Wash Shampoo in it. I got very little foam compared to this demonstration. I have a Ryobi 1800 PSI 1.2 GPM Cold Water Corded Electric Pressure Washer pushing it. Any Ideas what I am doing wrong. I do have very hard water but I adjusted the nozzle as demonstrated. Thanks in advance.
Woukd you recommend this for the 1600 psi pressure washer or a different brand name ?
Do you have a link for the low pressure draw tube modification?
I have seen you test a foam cannon on a cordless power washer, and obviously those have lower PSI/GPM ratings. Do you know if there are smaller orifices for better foaming on a power washer? Like maybe a 0.9mm?
Custom made 0.85's will be on eBay soon.
I have a pressure washer I know I need the cannon . The wand is that different from the pressure washer gun or is it the same thing, I have the gun that comes with the pressure washer
Heads up for 2023 shoppers - there's also now a "two in one" version that supports both pressure and hoses, but the fan is not adjustable, nor can you swap in a 1.1 orifice. O'reilly (at least mine) still has the right version.
Please do a video on Chemical guys big mouth foam cannon
There is a new Armor All 2-in-1 foam cannon. Have you tested it?
Apart from the canon, what type of machine controls this? Like where is the hose connected to?
I get o’riley commercials all the time and the closest one to me is 3hours away in a different state
Hey Josh, I bought the Uber flex 50' hose to go with my Green works pressure washer. Since using the hose I've noticed that my pressure washer will not hold the pressure. Does length of hose affect that?
It shouldn’t… just make sure everything is tightened down and there are no small leaks anywhere
Armor All foam canon vs AutoGlym Polar Blaster Foam Cannon
Which is the best one and better value for the money?
I have a pressure washer question is?
Ryobi 1600 or craftman 1600 better
You could super glue a brass nut on the hose.
My Armor all cannon is of a drastic different design in that there is a black insert in the tube that doesn't allow for any adjustment and I tried it with my 1900psi 1.2gpm Ryobi PW and no matter what I tried in terms of adjustment combinations and increasing or decreasing the soap to water ratio I couldn't get it to produce anything beyond very runny foam that didn't adhere at all well to my vehicle.
My Armoural foam cannon is most definitely not the same as the one in this review and unfortunately I bought it based on this review.
I have since returned it and bought a MJJC foam cannon hope it works as advertised
Just ran into the same problem. Bought the Armor All cannon and the orifice replacement only to discover there is no orifice nozzle inside after removing the connector. I guess Armor All changed their design. Very frustrating after spending all the $$ for it.
Josh, When you test soaps; I'd like to ask that you please test out Meguiar's Professional Shampoo (Google M6201). It is by far my favorite car soap!
Can you use a 1.1 orifice with a gas powered 3000psi pressure washer?
Can't remember if I asked this one this one or not before..but would this work with A battery powered pressure washer?..
I live in Georgia and they are all over the East Coast and pretty much in every state.
Good to know thanks!!
Do you need to change that piece if you have a gas pressure washer ??
Just picked one of these up for $12 at Ollie’s.
Also price for the armor all foam cannon is higher then stated even when I have found it alone I use the Mjjc foam cannon with the 1.1mm on my ketchers pressure washer works great
The mjjc is my favorite!
Sodium Laurel Sulphate is the main ingredient , surface active agent , make sure you have SOFT water coming out of your hose . I'm a former lab tech
Thanks Trevor!
Oreillys is in Midwest also
For the soap video. Review coch genie gsf
I bought this josh if I install 1.1 orifice in cannon will it burn out my pressure washer?I have a cheap sun joe pressure washer doubt no more then 1.2 gpm
No
Bought this canon and added the 1.1 orifice.I used Meguiars Ultimate wash and wax, Jay Leno's garage and Chemical Brother's Sticky snowball and the winner was Meguiars, Jay Leno close second. Josh was spot on. I was excited to try the Sticky snowball and it didn't come close to the other two. Very happy with Meguiars Ultimate. The cannon and 1.1 orifice was only a $32 buy and I'm satisfied with the results.
What are the specs of your pressure washer?
I'm assuming the stronger PSI pressure washer will after the foam production as well correct?
Correct!
As long you have a pressure washer with well over 1800 PSI you should be fine.
Where can u get the different size oraforce
Have you tested or have an opinion on this foam cannon? Griot's Garage 51185 Brilliant Finish Foam Cannon
It actually just got delivered so ill be doing a video on it soon!
Just purchased the Armorall foam cannon. What am I doing wrong? I get NO foam. Using Husqvarna 2K pressure washer, 1.1 orifice, Chem guys Mr Pink soap. Knob turned down
No foam
Question, is this foam damaging the environment at all ?.all that soap going down the drain . And out into the water ways?
PLEAAASSSSE............................
No I was wondering this aswell and soap breaks down long before I can harm anything I’ve been foaming for 2-3 years and it hasn’t even killed any gras
Smfh. Climate change and all that environment crap is a scam ffs. Ask the volcanoes, meteors and solar flares. Are you afraid of gluten too?
1400 psi mjjc PRO V2 foam cannon 1.1vs1.2 ?
So I just ordered this and it does NOT have a removable orifice. Also the orifice you link above is unavailable.
I just bought an Armor All one from Lowes today that was $40 thinking it was the same as what you got here. Apparently what they sold was different than this one, it doesn’t have an adjustable nozzle, and it straight up sucks ass. It produces foam almost no different than a water hose powered foam gun.
If you see a 2-in-1 Model of the Armor All foam cannon, it’s a complete waste of money.
Hi, what is your pressure washer in this video?
He has it linked in the drop down menue
I see you're using a 1.2gpm 2100 psi pressure washer. I have the Ryobi 1.2gpm 2000 psi washer. I'm using a foam cannon with a 1.1mm nozzle and my foam is very disappointing. I cant understand how you're getting such good foam.
I'm using a 1800 psi pressure washer with the default 1.25mm orifice which came with the MJJC foam cannon. I had no problem getting foam out of it. I think it could be your soap problem or the soap to water dilution ratio. Remember 1 oz of soap to about 4-5 oz of water
Does thickness matter after a certain point? Beyond bravado.
Can you send me one of your 1.1mm orifice? I tried ordering two off ebay and got screwed with getting sent more 1.25 mm orfices and now I'm scared to order anymore online anywhere else just to get screwed again
I picked one of these foam cannons from Armor All to give it go. In my attempt to swap out the orifice with the 1.1mm Ridge Washer part I found that it had issues threading in. In the end I wasn't able to do the swap in fear of stripping threads. Has anyone else had this same issue?
ive had a few from them and ive never had an issue... sounds like t cross threading? could be the orifice or maybe the foam cannon
I believe it comes with a 1.1 already installed. Mine did
I'll like to see how's work in a moody truck.i think that's will show a more amazing results.
