Default !!!- Foam Gun Group Buy - !!!

This is being run on another forum, so I wanted to offer it up to members here who may be interested. No minimum amount of people required since thats already been met a long time ago. This has been, by far, the most popular gb request from members. Everyone absolutely loves their foam gun! Local pickups are an option as well. Shipping to Canada is available, pm me if you need this! This will run for 10 days (ends 7/31) Heres the info:

This is one of the best ways to cut down the time on washing your vehicle, makes washing safer (less wash induced marring/swirls), and makes it really fun too (and, as tested by another member, can apparently double as a way to wash your dog too, lol) Heres the info!

The proportioners are changed via 15 different sized tips, each with a different diameter opening to allow the soap/chemical to pass through. This allows you to adjust how much or how little solution is used. Most guys are using the green tip. THis is a good starting point and you can adjust from there to suit your needs based on the soap youre using (ie: thick, heavy soaps vs thin, watery soaps). Foam guns save time when washing, and allow your solution to start working on breaking up surface dirt and pulling it away before you start to wash w/ your mitt.

Heres whats included and how it works;

Foaming barrel, pistol handle and 48oz container. Simply screw on your pistol handle to any standard garden hose. Pour in your wash solution into the 48oz container. Choose your tip size, and put into base of eductor/barrel, then slide pull hose over it (this is only done once, or if you want to change the proportioner. Its not required each time). Screw on the top/barrel. Youre now all set up. Wet down your car, then attach the barrel/container to your pistol handle via quick disconnect. Begin foaming Simple as that
Heres some shots of the new foam gun in use.

Any soap will work You'll notice different dwell times and foaming capabilities between soaps. Just the particular soaps characteristics, thats all, but yea, like I mentioned, any soap will work just fine

Does the package include all the different size tips? The description is unclear. Does the price include shipping? If not, cost to ship Option A to 92596? Thanks.

Yes, all tips are included. Price is w/o shipping.

I'd recommend just grabbing a foaming barrel/cannon for the pressure washer.

This attachment costs more than buying the dedicated foam gun.
