    Fast94GT- Glad to hear you like the foamgun! See if it doesn`t make for a lot less wash-induced marring

    What do you guys think of this? I wonder if I can use Megs NXT soap with this.

    I too use a foam gun as part of my washing routine. The only difference between mine and the Gilmore one is that mine has a sliding pin that allows you vary the amount of soap being used on the fly. That way, you don`t need to pre-dilute your soap. Just set the pin to the ratio you want and spray away. It also means you can just fill up your container with pure soap and not worry about it until you`re out (I haven`t refilled mine since last summer.)



    The pin locks into pre-dertmined ratios (0.5oz/gal, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, etc...)



    If anyone`s interested in the model, I`ll try and take pics tonight of the foam gun. Can`t recall exactly where I got it but it shouldn`t be too hard to find.

    That sounds exactly like my Gilmour. I think many of us a prediluting the actual product we are putting in the foam gun container prior to turning it on for washing.



    That`s extremely impressive you haven`t filled it since last summer! :shocked: I`d find it fairly routine to refill it maybe once a month plus. Keep in mind the foam gun is on constantly only being switched back and forth to rinse per panel, up until the final rinse step a la Accumulator`s washing technique.
    Treat it like it`s the only one in the world.

    Yeah, I use mine in a different way than you and Accumulator do (more of a pre-soak after initial rinse to loosen up stubborn dirt.) I`m sure I use a lot less than you guys do.



    Plus, I have to admit I`ve been using QEW more and more and traditional washes less.
