Curious...how many of you use a foam gun?

Especially on darker automobiles?

I plan on ordering one within the next month. From what I hear about it, it's almost standard for perfectionists like us. And if it speeds up my washes and reduces marring, it would be money well spent.

I use the foam attachment for my Karcher (hope that counts) with the two bucket method. Really helps with the Black Paint on my Audi.

I need new wash mitts though as mine are starting to suck.

Accumulator's *pair* beats my single gun hands down.

I can almost picture him wearing a belt/holster combination with a foam gun on each hip.
