Griot's Foam Gun/Optimum Wash video

Bunky

Detailing Gnosis
I was practicing doing a video with the camera in one hand and using something else in the other (Garry Dean style). I need more practice.

Griot's Foam Gun ($30) with recommended nozzle (1:128 dilution?)

Optimum Wash 1:6 dilution in the bottle

How can It be Garry Dean style with no commentary?

Do you like the combo?

My reference is the ability to move the camera adroitly and also show work. I have not graduated to talking at the same time or even flipping the camera around to talk into it.

I am using a Canon S95 and it has no viewfinder which I do find a nuisance at times. I may just switch to my Nikon but the camera is much heavier.

Optimum works nicely in the foam gun and the griot's foam gun. You can find the same one sold elsewhere for horse washin and also Adam's sold this style until it was discovered to be made in China.
 
Is there a way to adjust the spray pattern? The jet spray doesn't cover well and it seems to waste a lot of product. No wonder you can't video, spray and talk all at once. :D

The pattern itself is not adjustable. It does seem like a waste but I was able to foam the truck almost 2x) while playing with the gun and camera but I only used 2 oz of soap mixed at 1:6 so cost wise it is not that expensive so less than a $1 even for entertainment if one thinks foam guns are a waste. I have not done extremely dirty cars with it so not sure the full benefit.

If you used a soap like CG Maxi Suds it would be at least 50% less cost.

I was just messing with you, Al. Nice job on the video. Optimum soap smells fantastic, doesn't it?
