Gloss Shampoos with a Foam Gun?

I just got my Simple Green (Gilmour) foam gun, and plan on washing the car today/tomorrow with it. I currently have a bottle of Sonus Gloss Shampoo. It's a good shampoo, but hardly any suds when I used it with the 2 bucket method last week. Has anyone ever tried this with a foam gun (or Jeff Werkstatt's AutoBody Wash) ?

I was leaning towards using these two due to their acrylic components as I'll be using JW's Prime & AJ. But if they wont foam well with the gun, then I'll have to go with plan B.

If plan B is needed, I was considering PB SSS, TOL Bubble Bath or Megs Gold Class.

Your thoughts/experiences?

The Sonus Gloss didn't suds up any better in the gun than it did in the bucket. I haven't used any of the others you mention, except the Meg's GC, which works great in the foam gun...or a bucket, for that matter, it just seems to be the most lubricious.

I use Zymol, Griots and EF successfully. I also use Accumulators method of pre-mixing in gallon jugs.

all of the last three soaps mentioned I've used via foam gun. All of them are awesome. I like SS&S the most though.
