Foam Guns For Sale

I have bought a few of these and gave one to my dad. We both love them. They are not like the few that sell for 60 bucks, but do just as good. I have access to about 10 of them, they were clearancing these out at a local store. They are 25 shipped.

Here are a few pics of what they look like in use. These are from a cell phone, so forgive me for the lack of qualtity. They do not foam as I wished, but they do the job and get good coverage. If you would like one, PM me.

Re: Foam Guns For Sale

I see , is there a difference in the soap. It has produced better soap/foam. It looks just like this gun. It is durable. I am new to the foam gun, so I may be doing something wrong and working off a garden hose and not a pressure washer.

Again, as it was asked earlier, could you post pics of the actual item(s). It can look like the one pictured and not be anywhere near the quality. What are the components made of? Brass, plastic, etc.

I doubt you'll get any real takers until we know what is on the table so to speak.

Re: Foam Guns For Sale

I'm interested, do you have any pics, or a link to more info?

What kind is it, manufacturer? Model? You'll get more attention and interest if you provide the details.

Re: Foam Guns For Sale

Same here about the pics. Just because it looks like a certain model does no good in its description. Grab a digital camera, yours or borrow one, and take a good quality picture of the foam gun.

Re: Foam Guns For Sale

i have the butchers foam gun pictured above & below, and it's made by gilmour (just look at the brass components). the only difference in the black one you have pictured, is it doesn't look to have the quick disconnect (the black plastic between the brass components below) to where you can just pull back, release, and use just the spray gun itself. other than that, for $25 shipped, that's one heck of a deal...

also... if you want to test it out to see if it truly foams, buy some EO1 car soap and use it straight and you should get tons of foam...

Actually the quick disconnect is mine. I have used mine 5 times, I am still adjusting it to get more foam. I put 2 oz of Megs Car wash in and mix in 3 - 4 oz of water in the quart and it does produce a heavy soapy film, not really a Foam. I am happy with that. I have seen videos of the Gilmore and lot of the times, that is all it produced. It is made by Johnson Wax Professionals.

The dillution ratio has 5 or so settings, you can manuver back and forth. It has instructions on what the settings are.

I can take money orders, but PayPal is recommended.
