Amazon runs the DUSICHIN-SFL-001 for under $13 every once in a while. It works as well as my Italian one, yes I have both.

It`s great to have extra foamers and/or bottles on hand in case you need more than one. What would you bet that the business part of the Dusichin (the injector) is made from the same factory that produces them for MTM? I have three MTM foamers — the regular one from six years ago, the low-pressure version, and the new PF22. They all perform about the same. The big difference is how clean the filter is inside the injector assembly. A new or clean filter results in the best foam.

I just used the new Griot`s pneumatic foamer for the first time and I could spray just one side of my van with a bottle. Until I get more bottles, I`m going to premix a gallon of foam solution and have it ready to refill the bottle.

(The pneumatic foamer produces foam that`s a little too dry for the foam/pre-rinse task, but it`d be near perfect for soaping as you go.)

Perhaps I`m the oddball with this, however I don`t see what all the hype is about. Other than smelling like melons and covering the car/truck with foamy soap, I don`t see the benefit of dragging out the power washer and hoses, etc. Not to mention it get`s all over the place and is tough to fully remove. I`ve used mine only a few times, then the novelty wore off. To me, there are other very effective ways to wash a car easier than this. Just my 02..

For me, if the car is filthy, after a HP rinse, I do foam prior to taking a mitt. Any extra liquid as part of my mechanical agitation is a bonus.
I don`t flood as I wipe/wash a panel technique

For the comment re: no difference in the guns. The PF22 foams better than the original one. I can`t recall the spray pattern between each, as I`m generally around the narrow side for both old or new.
