CleanYourCar - Foam Cannon 

The all new Foam Cannon Wash gun is a fantastic addition to anyone's detailing arsenal. 

Our Foam Gun is constructed with high quality brass fittings and tough plastic body connects directly to a standard hoselock hosepipe connector and precisely mixes a shampoo solution with the flow of the water to produce a rich clinging foam. The thick layer of foam encapsulates and softens the dirt and grime. Because the foam clings much better to vertical surfaces it can be left to dwell for longer without drying which really allows the emulsifiers and surfactants to work much better than traditional wash methods. This means that when it is rinsed off much more of the potentially paint damaging dirt is removed. With a fully adjustable flow control, it's possible to deliver just the right amount of shampoo onto the paint.

A further layer of foam can then be laid onto the vehicle and washed using a soft wash mitt for the safest wash possible.It can also be used in place of a bucket wash with the solution being sprayed directly in front of the wash mitt. Allowing the mitt to gide over the paintwork safely and effectively.

The other great thing about this gun, is the body of the Foam Cannon and the handle are designed to separate, so the trigger section can be left on the hosepipe to rinse down the vehicle.

Features:

- Chemical Resistant Body
- High quality brass connectors.
- Detachable handle for a powerful spray rinse
- Used with water up to 60°C
- Fully adjustable Flow Rate
- 900ml wide mouth bottle

I bought this recently and teamed it with Valet Pro PH Neutral Snow Foam. Whilst not providing the sort of clingy foam that my pressure washer does it's pretty damn good and so much easier than keep dragging the pressure washer out. I do have good mains water pressure though so that will definitely be helping the result.

Having never used a pre wash apart from a hose Down this really does help loosen dirt and get the car ready for a two bucket wash, making it all abit more lubricated at the same time. it didn't make the dirt run off the car noticeably like I was expecting but still was better than hose down! While it was only £35 and worth every penny, Plus the main water gun is now permanently attched to the hose it's that good...small kartcha's are selling for about £80 with a snowfoam attachment...

Not used one of these before so it's taken a bit of experimenting to get the mix right. I'm using about 40% foam/60% water in the container. You can adjust the mix through 6 settings. Leaves a decent layer on the car, enough to then wash it with a mitt. The water pressure from a standard hosepipe isn't enough to leave a very thick layer on the car, you still need a pressure washer for that. Very well made and put together. I'm using the trigger part on the hose by itself.

This product although well made doesn't work well as it relies on water pressure which isn't enough to get real thick foam. I returned mine and the lads at Clean your car very kindly replaced it with the snow lance fir my Karcher cleaner. The snow lance is another league (see my review for detail) Great service yet again by this company.

I have now used this product about 20 times. it does exactly what it says it will do and has a flow rate adjuster which works. This is a great product for those who only have or only want to use a garden hose for washing their vehicle. Just connect and go. It obviously doesn't have the same power as a jet wash, but it foams really well. The bottle doesn't have any indicators on the side to show how much product you have poured in, but this doesn't bother me at all as I have a plastic measuring jug in my garage anyway as I am always mixing lots of products. Also, I would suggest ensuring you have a good hose end connector to connect to the foam cannon. I have given this a five star rating as it does exactly what it says it will do and has the flow rate adjuster which works very well.

my fault on this occasion as I ordered a foam cannon instead of the lance. The lads at clean your car are replacing it for me so thanks for this great service yet again from this company. In summary it's well made easy to assemble but as it connects to the hose there isn't enough power to create decent foam. I used it with valet pro solution which is meant to be the best so I know it's not the solution. I will write a review when the lance arrives and I am sure through a pressure washer I will get foam. In summary if you have no pressure washer best to stick with a bucket and sponge.

Quite a good product but would say it needs a very high pressure from your hose system. due to mine being weak, it only really gave suds rather than the proper snow foam effect people are hoping for. I mainly wanted that snow foam effect but would put that down to weak pressure rather than the item. So I quickly moved on and upgraded to pressure washer system.

A lot easier to set up on a hose without the bother of setting up the pressure washer. It doesn't foam quite as well but the quality of the foam fluid is important. I tried Turtlewax which was useless. Simoniz was better but the best was ValetPro ph neutral which generated a nice amount of sticking foam. Foam once and rinse off after a while and then foam again and leave it on whilst you use your normal shampoo and it works very well.
