My foam cannon connects to my pressure washer. It needs the extra boost to create thick foam like that

Question, why did you use a mixture of two different car wash soaps? Is there a method to your madness?

Ah that one. You need a pretty big compressor for it otherwise you'll be working it nonstop. Still I think I rather not have electricity near car wash

Actually, anyone know the CFM/psi requirement?


EDIT: its 5cfm at 90psi. I wonder how much air you actually need for a whole car.

OPC and Shampoo Plus for foam/stripping agent in the cannon and Hyperwash as a soap soap, P21S TAW as a stripping agent for the 2BM
