    The actual point of the foam cannon is the make it easier to wash your car while in direct sunlight.
    If you have proper output, the foam should be thick and stick on the surface. This makes it so by the time you’re halfway around the car, the other half is still foamed and protected from the hot rays of the sun, reducing the chance of streaking or water spotting.

      @jh.f30 Před rokem +3

      Well that's one reason.. another is for a pre wash, you should foam, let it sit then rinse, foam again then wash. I do rinseless washes now though wayyyy more time efficient drying feels way slicker

    When I changed to 1.1 mm orifice my pressure washer started "oscillating". Great foam for 3 seconds and pressure drop for the second. Then great foam for 3 seconds and down pressure again. Like a waive pattern. What is causing that?

      I would deep clean and polish the paint up then ceramic coat it. It lasts about a year and all you need is to rinse off the car with water. When it starts to fade off in some spots, you can use a detailling spray that has ceramic in it to touch it up and make it like new! Id reccomend watching some videos from chemical guys channel. They go in depth of how to take care of your vehicle :)

    You aren't getting 2 gpm on most electric pressure washers, nor is it needed. For some reason obsessed garage got everyone to think that you need more water. It might save a little time, but only very little time, and your water usage will increase. As far as cleaning ability, it really isn't all that important to hunt down an especially high flow pressure washer, unless you're in a high volume detailing environment.

      Hell yeah! But only use around 1000 psi, you dont need much pressure to get good foam or to clean a car. Gas powered tend to be significantly more powerful than electric, be careful not to damage the relatively sensitive vehicle surfaces.
