GUY!!!
I just ordered a foam gun, a gallon of Optimum Car Wash and a bottle of Opti Seal. Do you think anything good will come from this trio?

I guess I could always use the foam gun to wash the house.

Thanks,

MB

Yeah.......one HUGE foam party for all the people at your work!!!

The Optimum soap is high in the suds department so a little goes a very long way. Opti-Seal is some great stuff, just remember that less is more.

Have fun and if there is a foam party........take pictures

In the tank mix 3:1 water to Optimum Carwash, then set the slider to the 3rd hole from the left (4:1). that'll give you 1 oz per gallon on the vehicle and looks a little sumpin like diss:




BTW: I just washed my siding with PowerClean through my foamgun and it worked great!

Thanks, Anthony. I'll remember "less is more" its hard for me to see ANYTHING with these two colors. We've had parties before when things got all foamy. I'll certainly take pictures.

THANKS A BUNCH! GOOD teachers make it simple. That's exactly what you people do. When the pollen is all gone, it'll be time to wash the siding, too. Thanks for that info too.

Fill up the pool with it, invite some friends over and have a bubble party!

Can't answer your first question but the second I can. There are two types of foam guns. The first (which I have) is usable right from a regular hose and produces a decent amount of suds. Here's a link: http://store.danase.com/gifofogun.html

The other type is often referred to as a "foam cannon" and is used in conjunction with a pressure washer. I personally haven't used one and am unsure as to whether I will or not since I still prefer a traditional 2 bucket or an ONR wash over using my foam gun. Here's a link for it: http://www.pressurep...art-344032.aspx
