I bought the foam gun from AutoGeek last month - it's fantastic! How did we live without this before?
I have continued to use Zaino Z-7 car wash and it works very well with the foam gun. I rinse the car first, then spray a foam layer ... which takes less than 30 seconds ... and then go at it with a wash bucket and wash mit as always.
The foam canon makes a big difference in the ease of washing your car - the process goes a bit faster and you know every spot got some soap.
You won't regret it.

FYI- AG does NOT sell CANNONS. They only sell the foam guns. Guns shoot a soapy water while Cannon shoots a shaving cream type of foam.
I am still in the process of developing the perfect cannon and will let you guys know when Im done!

Hey C, does your foam gun get as thick of a lather as FMINUS's setup? Just curious.

Not so sure about that man. Mine pumps out serious, thick foam and looks similar to your pictures.
Trust me

Washed my wifes car using the foam gun today ,I followed the directions but I would say the gun layed on a lather vs a foam, it was certainly nowhere near as thick as FMINUS' shots , any tricks you guys know about ??
Thanks
Thanks
