chemical guys foam blaster

Been thinking about buying it, Chemical Guys are located 5 minutes away from where I live.
I talk to some of the guys (customers) and they seem to like using it with a soap called Mr. Pink

 

these are marked down from $90, looks like a easy and good way to wash without using buckets, 2 bottles of car wash come with it, you could probably use any car wash in it I would think.

 

I can't seem to open the ebay link with my browser but the foam blaster is used to apply the soap only, I believe you still need to wash it by hand.
Generally a hand wash should have two buckets, one for cleaning your wash mitt and one with soapy water.

BTW there's a youtube on how to wash using this foam blaster

 

Chemical guys makes some awesome stuff. I exclusively use it, and love it. Once I get a pressure washer I may pick one of these up.

 

sometimes I use a 2 bucket method if the car is extremely dirty and gritty, but if its lightly dirty and just need a tune up I use 1 bucket, this sprayer can eliminate1 bucket for sure and just use a rinse bucket.

 

Just picked up one of these. Used it to power wash my concrete/exposed agg patio with great results. Perfect for washing cars and other light-duty stuff. I good value I think at $70.

You guys do realize this is the one that hooks to your garden hose and not to a pressure washer, right?

Don't want to sound like a jerk or know it all. Just unsure if you guys knew that or not since pressure washers were brought up. This does a decent job, but its no foam cannon. That's the one that needs a pressure washer. Once you use one of those you will get spoiled quickly....

 

Good looking out man!

 

this Is a great kit. I received one as a gift from my TW secret santa this year. I love using this thing. hooks right to the garden hose with a quick disconnect. obviously it cannot be used on the end of a pressure washer, but I do break out the pressure washer to use along side this thing.

1: pressure wash off all loose dirt
2: chemical guys spray foam with your favorite car wash soap
3: sponge it down with a clean sponge
4: pressure wash off the suds

of course you can skip the pressure washer and just quick disconnect the foam unit from the nozzle for the before and after rinses.

overall it saves a ton of time, and does a phenomenal job with the foam coverage

 

You only need to change the fitting.
I've seen both in person and they sell them with pressure washer and garden hose fittings.
The garden hose fitting does not do a great job as the one made for a pressure washer but it's better than not having one.
Op can purchase garden hose option and if he decides to pull the trigger on a pressure washer he can simply purchase the fitting.

Good point though, I'm glad you brought it up since not everyone knows these things.

 

i know i know its getting like dis

 

this one I happened to find in EBAY Deals section, looks like about $30 cheaper than the norm price, wit free shipping

 

I love mine. Gf thinks I'm a kid because I asked for one for Christmas. She told me after the first use, "I payed $60 for a toy that makes bubbles.... you're such a kid." I love it for quick washes. I use Blue Coral high foam soap from Walmart. $2 a bottle. I use around half of the container for one wash, but it's cheap.

 

Not sure what is so special about their foam cannons that they ask that kinda money for them... But found this on Amazon

They have a 13 piece kit at Costco that comes with the Foam Blaster for $69.99. I had picked up two sets in Dec. when they went down to $50.
